August Temperature Swings in Colorado: Is Your Cooling System Ready?
Rainy Days, Hot Afternoons, and Your Home’s Comfort
August in Colorado is a bit of a wild card. One moment it’s sunny and 90°, the next it’s pouring rain and dropping into the 60s. These dramatic temperature swings—especially on rainy days—can leave your home feeling stuffy, chilly, or just plain uncomfortable.
At Lakewood Plumbing & Heating, we understand the unpredictability of Colorado’s weather. That’s why we’re here to help you stay comfortable no matter what Mother Nature throws your way.
Why August Is Tough on Cooling Systems
- Humidity spikes after rain can make your home feel warmer than it actually is.
- Sudden temperature drops can cause older thermostats to overcompensate, leading to uneven cooling.
- Frequent on/off cycling due to changing temperatures can wear down your AC system faster.
If your cooling system is struggling to keep up, it might be time for a tune-up—or even a more efficient upgrade.
What You Can Do Today
- Check your thermostat settings—make sure it’s set to “auto,” not “on.”
- Clean or replace your air filters, especially if it’s been a particularly dusty summer.
- Schedule a quick inspection with our friendly team—we’ll make sure everything’s running smoothly.
