Preparing Your HVAC for Hurricane Season on the Space Coast

Protect Your HVAC This Storm Season

Here on the Space Coast, hurricane prep should include your air conditioner.

Before the storm

• Turn your AC off at the thermostat and breaker if a direct hit or flooding is expected
• Cover or secure the outdoor unit against flying debris (don't wrap it long-term — trapped moisture causes corrosion)
• Consider a surge protector to guard against power-surge damage

During the storm

Keep the system off if the power is unstable. Repeated surges and brownouts can damage the compressor and controls.

After the storm

• Don't run a unit that was flooded — have it inspected first
• Check the outdoor unit for debris and damage
• Turn power back on and restart only once you've confirmed it's safe
