Is Your Houston AC Unit Ready for Summer? Key Maintenance Tips
Houston summers are no joke — and neither is a failing air conditioner when you need it most. With average high temperatures reaching the mid to upper 90s°F (35–37°C) and humidity levels often above 70%, the heat index can feel well over 100°F. That’s why making sure your AC unit is ready for summer is not just smart — it’s essential.
Before the extreme weather hits in June and July, take the time to prep your system. A properly maintained air conditioner can make all the difference in staying cool, lowering energy bills, and avoiding emergency repairs. Keep reading for essential AC maintenance tips from the experts at Punbar Air and stay ahead of the Houston heat.
Why Regular AC Maintenance Matters
Your AC system works hard all summer long. Without regular check-ups, small issues can turn into big, expensive repairs. Maintenance helps:
✅ Improve system efficiency
✅ Lower your energy bills
✅ Prevent unexpected breakdowns
✅ Extend the life of your unit
DIYAC Maintenance Tips You Can Do Today
Here’s what you can handle on your own before calling in the pros:
🧹 Clean or Replace the Air Filters
Dirty filters reduce airflow and make your system work harder, driving up costs. Check them monthly!
🌬 Clear the Outdoor Unit
Remove debris, leaves, and dirt around the outdoor condenser so it can breathe properly.
🌡 Check Your Thermostat Settings
Make sure your thermostat is set to “cool” and test it to ensure it responds properly.

Ensure vents aren’t blocked by furniture or curtains to allow for even airflow.
