How to Beat the Houston Heat

The heat is on its way to Houston and you want to make sure you stay nice and chill. From making sure your HVAC system is running at optimal level, to closing the blinds in your home, there are many things you can do to beat the excruciating Houston heat. Here are more chill tips to staying cool in the Houston heat: 

HVAC Maintenance 

One of the best things you can do to beat the heat in Houston is to have regular HVAC maintenance. Regular maintenance will not only ensure that your system is running properly, but the technicians are able to diagnose the system to see if there are any parts of the system that are failing or need to be replaced. Generally, during the hot months, your system can work overtime trying to combat the Houston heat which is why it is so important to get regular maintenance to keep you and your home cool! 

Did you know that is it recommended to get bi-annual tune-ups? With The Chill Preventative Maintenance Plan, you can receive these tune-ups plus more! Never fall behind on your HVAC maintenance while enrolled in a maintenance plan. For more information, visit their website or give them a call. 

Air Purification 

When the hot weather sets in, the last thing you want is dirty, humid air. To prevent this, it is important to have the right air purification products such as UV lights and AirScrubbers. These add ons can transform your air and keep you cooler longer without feeling humid or stuffy. Especially in Houston, when the weather gets hotter, plants will start to bloom and then come allergies. With air purification items, it can even help alleviate common allergy symptoms! 

The Chill Brothers are skilled in many HVAC solutions including air purification! They offer UV lights, AirScrubbers and more! Visit their website for more information on how you can transform your air! 

Close all Blinds and Windows

Even when your HVAC system is doing it’s best to keep your home cool in Houston, there are some things you can do to help alleviate some of the stress on the system including: 

  • Closing all blinds 
  • Using blackout curtains
  • Sealing cracks or leaks in windows 
  • Open all bedroom doors 
  • Keeping air vents open 
  • Keep windows closed

Utilize Other Sources of Cooling 

You can also help keep cool by turning all ceiling fans on. This not only provides an additional form of cooling, but it will keep the air circulated and prevent cold or hot spots in the home. This also works with traditional plug in fans or floor fans. You can also help keep cool by avoiding using large appliances during the hottest part of the day. This includes dish washers or dryers. If you have to use these appliances, try using them in the afternoon when it’s not as hot. It may not be much, but it will help aid in keeping you cool! 

Smart Thermostat 

Oftentimes, Houston homeowners say that their home doesn’t cool to the proper temperature set. This can be due to an outdated thermostat. Thermostats are like the brain of the HVAC system; they deliver signals to the system to either start running or stopping to provide the accurate desired temperature. When the thermostat starts to get older, it can fail at delivering these signs resulting in inaccurate readings. 

Are you ready to upgrade your thermostat? The Chill Brothers are offering ANY smart thermostat installation for only $199! They offer Lennox smart thermostats, Honeywell and Ecobee. Visit their website for more information regarding your thermostat in Houston. 

Outdoor Activities 

Above all else, you can easily beat the heat in Houston by spending time in a pool, water park or lake! Houston is made up of many popular attractions that are popular during the hotter months. Even when the heat is scorching, you can still find relief and have fun! Houston heat is no joke and The Chill Brothers know how important it is to get fast, effective cooling.
