Ripon HVAC: Surviving Almond Bloom Season
Almond bloom is beautiful, and brutal on outdoor HVAC equipment. Here's the Ripon-specific routine.
Avg pickup ~38 sec, Tap to callLate February through March, almond bloom dusts every outdoor surface in Ripon with fine pollen. Condenser coils clog faster here than almost anywhere else in the Valley.
A simple post-bloom coil rinse in early April makes the difference between a smooth summer and a hot-day breakdown. We schedule a Ripon-specific spring tune-up window every year.
For homeowners with allergies, upgrading to MERV 13+ filtration during bloom season is one of the best comfort moves available.
