Beavercreek Resident with a Furry Best Friend?
Having a pet is a blessing, but problems can occur if your HVAC system has not been adequately prepared. Here are some tips that can help your pet and HVAC system stay healthy!
Making HVAC Equipment Pet-Friendly
If you have a pet that requires lots of brushing, make sure to do so often. The hair from your furry friend can get down in your ductwork, vents, and system even if you can’t see it. It’s best if also having an animal with lots of furs to get your ductwork looked at and cleaned. Having clogged pipes can lead to many complications down the road with your system.
Make sure to get a Tune-up at least once a year for both units. This keeps all that unwanted hair from your furry friend out of your system to make sure it’s up and running well for more seasons to come. Also, make sure to change out the filter in your unit. The filter can be found on the side of your AC unit. That keeps all the unwanted hair and dust out of your system until it gets overused. Once blocked, no air can get into your system and can cause more problems.
Maybe approaching dry seasons like winter or even fall, to look into getting an air purifier is never a bad option! This doesn’t just filter your air, but it also helps with allergies in summer, keeping everyone healthy from sickness, and your furry friend from becoming more of a problem with fur than a buddy.
Hiding exposed wires is the best way to keep your pets safe! They don’t know what they are chewing on, but you do and can keep them up and tucked away and out of sight. This helps your furry friend stay safe but also suitable for your system and you. If wires are messed with in the wrong ways, your unit can become damaged or further a problem with your safety. We want to keep everyone safe, and the best way to is to keep your wires away and out of sight and reach.
Last but not least, make sure you cover or put a small fence around your outside condenser unit. This will keep unwanted things out of your units such as your pets and less polling.
