June Home Maintenance in northern New Jersey

June belongs to cooling. The A/C is about to work hard for three months, and a clean, inspected unit cools better and costs less to run.

Inside, the kitchen gets attention: degreasing the range vent filter, and the fireplace officially goes to bed for the summer with pilots off and glass cleaned.

On the June checklist

• Clean range vent grease filter
• Turn off gas fireplace pilots. Clean fireplace glass.
• Clean & inspect A/C unit
• Clean exterior air intakes
• Monitor softener salt and furnace filter. Fill/replace as needed.
• Visual inspection of home exterior addressing minor issues like caulk repairs, vent obstructions, insects, accessible wasp nests, etc.
• As time allows, address items on homeowner's to-do list. See list of common services below.

Covered by your maintenance plan

Every membership visit in June works through this checklist, then puts the remaining time toward your own to-do list. Two hours on Basic, four on Premium, booked on a live calendar with no double-booking.

Northern New Jersey summers reliably hit the 90s. The difference between a cleaned A/C and a neglected one shows up on the first heat wave and every bill after.
