snowstorm HVAC safety tips

During a major snowstorm, it is essential to monitor the snowfall outside of your home because the buildup can create issues with your HVAC system.

To keep your HVAC system running safely and efficiently during a snowstorm, remember to:

1. Make sure that all vents leading to the outside of your home are clear of blockage to provide proper ventilation.

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. Make sure all outside equipment is cleaned off, and snow is shoveled away from around the unit.

 

 

 

 

 

 

3. Continue to check and clear snow or ice buildup around vents and outdoor units throughout the storm.

4. If your power goes out, sit tight, your HVAC system should automatically switch on when your power does. If your system does not turn back on, try our basic troubleshooting tips.
