Beat the Heat:
Summer Checklist

Maximize cooling efficiency and minimize energy bills by ensuring your system is running at peak performance.

Optimize your cooling schedule to reduce energy waste while maintaining comfort during the hottest months.

Ensure fans are set to rotate counterclockwise to create a cooling breeze effect during summer months.

Prevent cool air from escaping and block intense summer sun to reduce your AC workload significantly.

Leaky ducts can waste up to 30% of conditioned air, forcing your system to work harder and cost more.

A poorly ventilated attic can reach 150°F, radiating heat into your living spaces and straining your AC.

Proper watering practices prevent drought stress while avoiding overwatering that leads to disease and pest problems.

Summer UV exposure and foot traffic can damage outdoor surfaces. Regular maintenance extends their lifespan considerably.

Check hose bibs and outdoor faucets for leaks that developed over winter and could waste water all summer.

Maintain proper water chemistry and safety equipment for a fun, worry-free summer swimming season.

Summer brings mosquitoes, ants, and other pests. Proactive measures keep your outdoor spaces enjoyable.

Summer grilling season requires attention to safety. Proper maintenance prevents fires and ensures great cookouts.

Summer storms can knock out power for days. Be prepared with essential supplies for your family's safety.

Don't wait until the power goes out to discover your generator won't start. Test and maintain it now.

Dead branches and weakened trees become dangerous projectiles during summer storms. Assess and address now.

Summer thunderstorms can dump massive amounts of water quickly. Ensure your sump system can handle the load.

Clear gutters can handle 1 inch of rain per hour. Clogged ones overflow and damage foundations and fascia.

Summer heat can accelerate shingle deterioration. Inspect now before severe weather season fully arrives.
