Having routine air conditioning service performed at least yearly can help extend the life of your air conditioner and keep it functioning at top efficiency. Before we get to the hottest days of the Logan summer, have the experts at Western Mechanical, Inc. perform your yearly air conditioning service.
Particular tasks should always be finished during a proper air conditioning service appointment. From energy.gov, your expert should always:
- Inspect for the proper amount of refrigerant, and if required, look for refrigerant leaks using a leak detector.
- If a refrigerant evacuation is needed, recover any refrigerant that must be cleared from the system, rather than unlawfully freeing it to the atmosphere.
- Check for efficient airflow in the system.
- Verify the appropriate electric control sequence to ensure adequate sequence of operation.
- Review electric terminals, clean and stiffen connections.
- Check the precision of the thermostat.
When it comes to DIY air conditioning service, replacing or cleaning your air filters regularly is essential. That’s because nothing else that straightforward can help make sure that your air conditioner continues to work at a high level of efficiency. In addition to when the air filter is cleaned or changed during your annual air conditioning service appointment, you should check it regularly. We suggest checking it monthly or according to the manufacturer’s recommendation. How often it actually demands cleaning or replacement will be dependent on individual aspects in your home, like how much dust enters your home and whether or not you have pets.
