Living in Southwest Florida means enjoying sunshine, beaches—and prepping your home for extreme heat and hurricane season. At Four Seasons Air, we help homeowners stay cool and safe all year long. Here’s our expert-approved checklist to make sure your home is ready before summer kicks into high gear.
✅AC Maintenance: Beat the Heat Before It Starts
— Book a Professional Tune-Up: Our licensed HVAC techs check refrigerant levels, check coils, test electrical components, and make sure your system is running efficiently—so you’re not caught off guard during the heat of summer.
— Change Air Filters: We recommend checking them monthly and replacing as needed to keep airflow strong and indoor air quality high, usually every one to three months.
— Clear the Outdoor Unit: Remove palm fronds, leaves, and any yard debris around your condenser unit. Good airflow keeps your system from overworking.
— Test Your System Early: If you don’t run your system all year, or you just came back from a vacation, test your system now. Don’t wait for the first ninety-five-degree day. Run your AC now, and call us if anything sounds off or cooling feels uneven.
— Seal Leaks: With AC systems working overtime, sealing around doors, windows, and attic spaces helps reduce energy bills and keeps your home consistently cool.
✅ Hurricane Protection: Prep Before the Warnings Roll In
— Inspect Your Roof and Gutters: Loose shingles, rusted flashing, or clogged gutters can all lead to water damage during a storm. A professional inspection before hurricane season ramps up can give you peace of mind, especially if your roof is a little older. Some area roof inspectors you may want to call include Kirkey Roofing, Roman Roofing or Kingdom Roofing.
— Secure Outdoor Furniture: In our area, sudden gusts can turn chairs and grills into dangerous projectiles. Know what needs to be brought in or tied down.
— Backup Generator Check: Test your generator, stock up on fuel, and keep extension cords nearby. It’s a game changer during post-storm power outages.
— Surge Protection for Your AC: Lightning strikes and outages are common during summer storms. Are your appliances and electronics protected? Think about a whole whole-home surge protector to protect your HVAC system and electronics. You may want to check with FPL Home on whole house surge protection @fplhome.
— Stock Emergency Supplies Now: Avoid the last-minute rush—water, batteries, non-perishable food, and a first-aid kit should be ready to go before any storms are named.
Hurricane season started June 1st, prepping early can help you avoid long wait times for service or repairs when storms are approaching. We all remember lines for everything from plywood to toilet paper! Hurricane warnings are stressful enough, give yourself some peace of mind by prepping early.
