Homeowner Tip-- Central Air Conditioning

The sun is out! Your home is starting to warm up inside!

When turning on the Air Conditioner (AC unit), remember to make sure it is warm enough outside and the unit is clear of anything that may have fallen onto it throughout the winter. Clean the condenser coil (the outside unit) with a garden hose at low pressure. DO NOT use a pressure washer.

You want to rinse it slowly and from a distance to make sure not to damage the fins of the coil as that will cause poor efficiency of the AC system and possibly require repairs.

If you are not sure or not comfortable with turning it on for the first time always consult with a professional or a trusted CAHPI home inspector for help. This is also the perfect time to change your furnace filter as well!

We’ve put together a checklist of important spring-cleaning tasks to do this month - head to the link below to check it out.

Marketplace reveals many homeowners are unaware of and unprepared for the growing threat of flooding because of confusing insurance policies, murky real estate rules and incomplete floodplain maps.

This market is crazy, but should you wave the home inspection? You wouldn't buy a $30000.00 car without a safety inspection. So why would you buy a $850000.00 Home without an inspection... I believe inspections should be mandatory. You never know what the previous owners, builders, contractors or tenants have done to a home...

In a normal real estate climate, a home inspection allays buyers' concerns. But in a red-hot market, many buyers are waiving the inspection as a condition of purchase.
