I also make sure that area of our snow removal plan includes the condenser
I live in a region of the country where the focal point of most Heating as well as A/C systems is the heating component. Everybody swears by their number one heating method. Some still emrue big old boilers that give cozy radiant heat. But most people I guess use some form of gas furnace. The favorite heating plan is such a focus in these parts because you sure don’t want to get caught in the middle of a single our winters without something legit. I have a state of the art gas furnace that I invested a chunk of change in. It’s only about 4 years old so, I’m planning for it to be around at least another 20 years. As soon as I assume the first cold wind of a coming winter, I get the Heating as well as A/C tech out to give our gas furnace its seasonal once over. I’ve never had a gas furnace fail in the dead of Wintertide as well as I hope to never experience it. Even though the heating plan is key here, the two of us can’t forget the while the Wintertide goes on as well as on. My condenser cabinet sits right outside the back of our house. The pad it sits on is directly under the drip edge of our roof. If you haven’t been through a single of these winters, you wouldn’t guess the size of some of the icicles that are produced. I put a hard plastic cover over the condenser cabinet to protect it from these frozen projectiles. I also make sure that area of our snow removal plan includes the condenser. I make sure to remove the snow as well as ice weight from this critical piece of a/c equipment. That thing has to get through the Wintertide outside. So, it’s up to myself and others to be sure it makes it to the next Springtime in good shape.
