While transitioning from heating to cooling seems as simple as flipping a switch on your thermostat, there are a few additional steps that can help keep your HVAC in good shape through the changing seasons. Air Out Your Home This may not seem like a critical spring cleaning step, but airing out your home by opening windows and doors on a nice day has several benefits.

In addition, it can give your HVAC system a brief break while you let the weather regulate your home’s temperature.
