Maintenance Tips

  1. As a friendly reminder and in consideration with the weather, please make sure you are changing out your AC filters monthly. Failure to do so will automatically charge you $150-$250 for an HVAC Tune up.

  2. If you do not immediately find a filter, it is located in the attic or underneath the inside unit. If you need help locating this, please give us a call.

  3. Different districts are going under mandatory water restrictions. Please check in with your service provider to make sure you are not in a restricted zone right now. In the event you are, it is important to abide by all rules and regulations to avoid fines to the homeowner and you.

  4. If an appliance is being repaired, please do not use it. If you find standing water in appliances, such as your dishwasher, it is important to clean this out so that you do not have further damage.

  5. How to Clean AC Drain Lines:

    1. Turn off your AC. Always do this before cleaning any part of your system! We recommend turning off the thermostat and the breaker to be safe.

    2. Find the condensate drain line on your system. This is a PVC pipe that goes from the indoor unit to outside your home, near the outdoor unit. With an indoor air handler, you may also find it inside near the system, in the air handler closet.

    3. Remove any blockage or debris from the end of the drain line. You can use a cloth or stiff brush.

    4. Then, remove the plug or cap from the access point (the T-shaped vent) and slowly pour either 1 cup of distilled vinegar or 1 cup of bleach solution into the drain line.

    5. Wait for 10 minutes to 1 hour for the blockage to be dissolved, depending on the severity of the clog. Replace the cap.


Most common HOA violation? Lawn. The majority of your leases rely on you to care for the lawn. Weed killing, mowing, edging and more are your responsibility (unless otherwise stated). You are welcome to do that yourself or hire a professional company. Feel free to reach out for questions about lawn maintenance or vendor recommendations.

Maintenance tip of the month: Cleaning your faucet Aerators. Aerators help keep pieces of lead and other particles from getting into your water. Clean your drinking water faucet aerator at least every six months. If there is construction or repairs to the public water system or pipes near your home, clean your drinking water faucet aerator every month until the work is done. Mix CLR and Water in a Glass Bowl (50/50 solution) Submerge The Aerator Hold For 2 Minutes Run Faucet to Rinse.
