Is Your Air Conditioning System Protected this Hurricane Season? To-Do List for Hurricane Preparation: 1. Turn your AC unit off prior to a severe storm. 2. If you have a window unit, unplug it entirely. 3. Cover your outside unit and make sure it’s secure. 4. Do not turn your unit back on immediately following a storm or hurricane. 5. Inspect the unit and surrounding area first to ensure it’s in proper working condition. Once the storm has passed, check your outside equipment for any damage like dents or dings from fallen debris. If you feel there is something obstructing your system and preventing it from working properly, it might be best to contact your HVAC experts at Donald Guy Heating & Cooling before you turn your unit back on. Remember, as you make plans and prepare your emergency hurricane kits, take care to watch your heating and cooling systems. You’ve spent a lot of money having these systems installed and maintained. With the proper precautions you can protect your investment and avoid coming home to an unpleasant situation.
