Don’t Let the AC Break: How Our Inspections and Air Filter Program Protect Your Property

❄️ Keeping It Cool: How Quarterly Inspections Help Protect Your HVAC Investment

In the South Carolina summer heat, a functioning air conditioner isn’t a luxury — it’s a necessity. As we head into the peak of July, there’s no better time to talk about how quarterly inspections help protect one of the most expensive systems in your rental property: the HVAC.

Why It Matters

Your HVAC system works hard year-round, but especially in the brutal summer months. What many owners don’t realize is that air conditioners are typically only designed to cool indoor air by about 20 degrees below the outdoor temperature. So, if it’s 98°F outside, even a well-functioning unit may only cool the home to around 78°F.

This means:
    • A dirty air filter or blocked airflow can cripple your system’s performance
    • Minor neglect can lead to major system failure during the hottest months
    • Tenants become unhappy, and emergency repair bills come fast

How We Protect Your System (and Your Budget)

At Edisto Property Management Group, we don’t wait until something breaks. Our quarterly inspections include:

✅ Checking for thermostat accuracy and airflow issues
✅ Identifying signs of frozen coils, leaks, or mildew
✅ Ensuring vents aren’t blocked and filters are in good shape
✅ Verifying that the HVAC is working within expected temperature range

Coordinated Annual Servicing

We coordinate and schedule annual HVAC servicing with qualified local vendors to ensure:
   • Units are cleaned, tuned, and checked for refrigerant levels
   • Drain lines are cleared to prevent water damage
   • Systems are running efficiently to reduce power bills and prolong lifespan

This kind of preventive maintenance can add years to the life of a unit — and thousands in savings.

Air Filters Delivered to the Door

One of the most common causes of HVAC failure is simple: tenants forget (or ignore) changing the air filter. But we’ve fixed that.

Through our Resident Benefit Package, we now ship the correct-size air filters directly to each tenant’s door — quarterly. No excuses, no guesswork. Just the right filter, at the right time.
