PROTECT MY SYSTEMIn general, your air conditioner should be serviced once a year, in the spring. This is done to verify that it is clean, that its parts are in good condition, and that it is running as efficiently as possible. HVAC specialists plan air conditioner tune-ups in the spring, after the weather has warmed up, so that they are ready for the humidity and heat.
Some of the more typical things you should expect during an AC tune up are:
- A thorough cleaning of the condenser coils. This improves efficiency (which has a direct influence on energy costs) and can minimize wear and tear on your system.
- Evaluation of the coolant level to aid in the maintenance of peak operational performance.
- Lubrication of all moving parts to reduce friction and wear, which can raise your energy bills.
- The thermostat will be fully calibrated to ensure optimal performance.
- An examination of the ductwork for potential energy loss.
- Tightening and inspecting all electrical connections to ensure that the system is operating safely.
- Examine the blower motor's performance and the condition of the blower belt.
The most crucial maintenance chore for ensuring the performance of your air conditioner is to change or clean its filters on a regular basis. Filters that are clogged with dirt, dust, pet hair and lint restrict the quantity of airflow and, as a result, the efficiency of the system. Furthermore, when airflow is restricted, dirt might skip the filter and enter the evaporator coil, impairing the coil's heat-absorbing ability. Replacing a filthy, clogged filter with a clean one can reduce the energy usage of your air conditioner by 5% to 15%.
