Ac Maintenance Basics

For many homeowners and business owners, air conditioning is something that is taken for granted. Not sure how it works but very happy to have it, air conditioner maintenance is the last thing on most people’s minds. That is, until the AC breaks!

Proper maintenance can help prevent larger problems, so learning the basics about your AC system is a good way to save time and prevent the hassle of dealing with repair or replacement later.

How does it work?

Before you can understand how to maintain the AC, you have to know how it works.

• An air conditioner has two parts: one inside, the other is outside.
• Inside component: The most important part of the inside component is the evaporator coil, which collects heat from the air inside of the home and, using a refrigerant, transports that heat to the outside unit.
• Outside component: As the heated refrigerant reaches the outside component, the compressor and condenser cool it and the heat is released outside before the refrigerant moves inside again.

The Outdoor Unit

The intricate workings of the compressor and condenser should not be altered by anyone other than a trained professional. However, there are some simple things you can do to take care of the unit and ensure that it is functioning efficiently. Turn off the system before performing any maintenance

• Keep sides and top clear of hedges or tall grass.
• Check the drain for clogs
• Remove any dirt or debris from the coil
• Clean the fan blades with a soft brush

Indoor Maintenance

Again, the working parts of the indoor component of your air conditioner should only be attended to by a trained and certified professional. However, this doesn’t mean that you should ignore it entirely! Changing or cleaning the filters inside your home should be done every one to three months, depending on the type of filters and the specific AC system. Doing this along with maintaining your outdoor unit is advantageous because it will allow your system to run more efficiently, lowering your energy use and costs.

Save time, save money, and stay cool this year by conducting proper maintenance on your AC system regularly and having it serviced by a professional when problems arise.
