Many people with air conditioners have them installed and then never do another thing to them unless they stop working. Are you one of these people? Did you know that a properly maintained air conditioner is not only more effective, and therefore, energy efficient, but are also better for your health.
How an air conditioning service helps the environment?
A recent discussion paper by the Australian Institute of Refrigeration, Air Conditioning and Heating (AIRAH) stated that poorly maintained air conditioners had a negative impact on a low emissions future. This is due to 2 main causes namely, poor efficiency leading to additional electricity usage and refrigerant leaks. Of course, not only will these affect the environment, but they will also affect your hip pocket in additional electricity charges.
What does an air conditioning service involve?
Whilst there are some things that you can do to maintain your air conditioners, there are others that you will need a qualified Air Conditioner Contractor to do. Some of the tasks involved in an air conditioning service are:
- Cleaning Filters to ensure clear air flow.
- Checking all moving parts to identify any possible issues (eg. failing motor bearings etc).
- Cleaning the heat transfer surfaces.
- Ensuring the refrigerant levels are at the design specification level.
- Recalibrating the controls.
- Checking all electrical connections.
So help the environment whilst helping your hip pocket and have your air conditioners serviced annually. Fill in a booking form and we'll have someone out to service your air conditioner as soon as possible.
