Heating and cooling performance depends on airflow and maintenance with issues like low refrigerant. A simple first step is airflow. Replace filters on schedule, keep supply vents open, and make sure return grilles are not blocked by furniture or rugs. Next, check thermostat settings. Make sure the system is in the right mode, the schedule is correct and batteries are fresh if needed. These checks can improve reliability and help catch problems like weak capacitors, dirty coils or worn blower parts before they cause a breakdown. Options like high-efficiency units or heat pumps can improve comfort and reduce energy use in some homes. Indoor air quality can also be part of the plan. Adding better filtration, cleaning ducts when appropriate, or improving ventilation can help with dust and comfort.
