Tips to Keep Your HVAC Stress Low For Thanksgiving Weekend Guests

We all know that hosting Thanksgiving guests over the weekend requires a good deal of effort, with all the cooking, cleaning, preparing decorations, and other prep required. The last thing you want is for a heater concern to ruin the occasion. To help you avoid issues, the following sections provide some basic heating and cooling upkeep suggestions for you to carry out in the days and weeks prior to visitors’ arrive.

Heating And Cooling Maintenance Suggestions for Hosting Thanksgiving Dinner

1. Open Any Closed Vents
You might be hosting overnight visitors during the vacations as well as dinner guests. Keep in mind to open any closed vents in the extra bedroom to permit the heat in. Otherwise, your visitors might wake in the middle of the night to bother you for an extra blanket.

2. Replace the Filter
Obstructed filters limit airflow and cause undue wear and tear on your furnace. To permit enough required air to blow through your home and keep the temperature comfortable, check the filter and change it when it’s dirty.

3. Lower the Temperature When Baking
To avoid subduing your guests with heat, lower the thermostat while the turkey, stuffing, and pies are in the oven. Not just does this keep your house at a more comfy temperature, but, it also avoids energy waste.

4. Arrange an HVAC Upkeep Inspection
To avoid emergency situations during dinner– or perhaps throughout– your holiday meal, have an a/c expert examine your heater before the special day. Such goes usually include oiling the motor, changing worn belts, cleaning up the blower housing, and proactively fixing any electronic problems prior to they causing a breakdown.
