AC maintenance can prevent costly repairs and reduce depreciation
Regular air conditioner maintenance is designed to keep your HVAC system working efficiently while reducing costly repairs and interruption in service. There are several things that can be done at home on your own in order to maintain your AC like changing the air filters, cleaning the vents, and cleaning the outside unit. However, it is important to have a licensed professional regularly maintain your air conditioner so that you don't lose up to 5% efficiency per year of use.
What are the steps in maintaining an air conditioner?
Just like the maintaining and tuning up a car, air conditioner maintenance is a tradeoff that favors paying less up front costs in order to prevent costly repairs, reduce depreciation costs, and prevent loss of service. Below are a few of the steps and checkups that go into maintaining an air conditioner:
- Calibrating the thermostat.
- Checking and replacing filters as needed.
- Cleaning and inspecting the ductwork for leaks and cracks.
- Checking all electrical controls and components. Even when there is not an immediate problem, checking the controls and components is a great way to identify potential problems before they become serious issues.
- Checking for leaks and freon levels. If there are unusually low freon levels, then there is probably a leak that needs immediate attention.
- Oiling the motors as necessary.
- Cleaning condenser and evaporator coils.
While air conditioning maintenance is one of the best ways to ensure steady cooling in your house and prevent the unit from breaking down, sometimes repairs are inevitable.
