Summers in Calgary are notoriously hot and dry. Given our distinct climate, it's crucial to prioritize the upkeep of HVAC systems in both residential and commercial properties, guaranteeing uninterrupted flow of refreshing, cool air.

With the proper care and maintenance, you can prolong the life of your system and ensure that it runs efficiently without issues or unexpected breakdowns when you need it the most. Prepare for the hot season ahead and read up on our summer HVAC tips!

Preparing Your Home’s HVAC For The Heat

Get your home ready for the summer season with these essential HVAC maintenance tips.

  • You must change your air filters on a regular basis if you want your HVAC system to run efficiently. This will also reduce indoor air pollution. In Calgary's dry climate, dust and debris can accumulate fast, so staying on top of air filter changes is vital.

  • With so much dust and debris, you'll also need to keep your outdoor unit clean. Don't forget to remove any leaves, twigs, or dirt that may have gathered around your outdoor unit.

  • Hot summer weather can cause your HVAC system to work harder and might result in lower refrigerant levels. Check your refrigerant levels before the summer season begins to ensure your system functions without issue.

  • Calgary's dry climate can cause discomfort and exasperate health issues. A humidifier is something that can pair well with your HVAC system. Consider installing a humidifier in your home to improve indoor air quality.

  • Cleaning the evaporator and condenser coils can improve airflow and efficiency. If you're serious about preparing your HVAC for summer, schedule a professional to come by to perform coil maintenance.

  • A professional HVAC tune-up can also help go a long way toward boosting your system's lifespan. Consider scheduling a tune-up with a licensed technician before the summer heat comes.

Preparing Your Business For Summer


If you want a reliable commercial HVAC system, it's essential to identify any potential issues early and make the necessary repairs. From regular air filter changes to professional tune-ups, we've got you covered. Don't let the summer heat affect your business productivity. Follow our HVAC tips and enjoy a refreshing and efficient cooling experience all season long.

  • Investing in an energy-efficient system can help you save money on energy costs. It's worth consulting with a licensed HVAC technician to determine if upgrading your system is the right choice for your business.

  • Deciding on a regular maintenance schedule can help keep your system running at peak efficiency throughout the summer. Working with a licensed HVAC technician will help you create a maintenance plan for your specific needs.

  • Installing programmable thermostats can provide you with more control over the temperature while also cutting down on energy waste.
