The kids are running around the yard. The pool is open. The summer parties are just beginning. Yes, it’s summertime again on Cape Cod!
Go ahead, enjoy the sun and fun! But remember, you still need your home comfort equipment to function at its very best. You might have a water heater issue. Your air conditioner could conk out when you need it most. You may want to schedule a pre-season heating system tune-up before everyone else does this fall. In other words, a South Shore Heating & Cooling technician could be visiting your home this summer.
Just as you’d remove paintings when a painter paints your walls or clear a room of furniture when having carpet installed, it’s important to keep a path to your home comfort systems clear so that our expert technicians can do their jobs quickly and easily.
- Cut back plants, weeds, and tree branches to leave at least a 2-foot clearance around your outdoor AC condenser.
- Keep toys, hoses, and outdoor furniture away from the condenser unit.
- Make sure our technicians have adequate space to park their trucks.
- In the basement, remove any cartons, old furniture, or anything that might block the path to your boiler, furnace, or water heater.
- Although our technicians carry flashlights, please provide adequate light for them to view your unit.
- Secure young children and pets away from the work zone.
Keeping paths to your HVAC equipment clear—both indoor units and outdoor condensers—allows South Shore Heating & Cooling’s technicians to diagnose and service your systems. It ensures faster repairs, prevents accidental property damage, and lets you get back to your summertime fun.
