Air conditioners need to be treated as a valuable asset. Though air conditioning systems demand that extra bit of care and attention, the best quality, branded units can provide the ultimate cooling for years to come.
By ensuring you stick to a regular maintenance routine, the average life of your air conditioning unit can easily be extended by up to 15 years.
The following tips will help your system to run efficiently and to function properly:
• Air vents and registers must be vacuumed on a regular basis
• Get the outside compressor cleaned regularly
• Keep the compressor covered during the winter
• Clean the ductworks on a periodic basis
• The furnace filter must be changed and cleaned on a monthly basis, and more so during the summer
• Make sure that the condensate tube is draining freely. Check all hose connections for leaks
It is advisable to get the air conditioning system inspected by an experienced technician. Maintain your equipment well in order to keep it running perfectly throughout its long, useful life.
