Maintaining Your Air Conditioner

Efficiency = Lower Energy Bills

The most important maintenance task that will ensure the efficiency of your air conditioner is to routinely replace or clean its filters. Clogged, dirty filters block normal air flow and reduce a system’s efficiency significantly. With normal air flow obstructed, air that bypasses the filter may carry dirt directly into the evaporator coil and impair the coil’s heat-absorbing capacity. Keeping the filter clean can lower your air conditioner’s energy consumption by 5% - 15%. An air conditioning system that is properly maintained will use less electricity when operating. The cost of a service on your air conditioner will be paid back in electricity savings in a short period of time.

 
Indoor Air Quality = Health

Indoor air quality can impact the health, comfort, well-being, and productivity of building occupants. Allergic responses to indoor biological pollutant exposures cause symptoms in allergic individuals and also play a key role in triggering asthma. Therefore it is important to keep filters clean.

 
Durability = Longer lifespan

Regular maintenance leads to fewer repairs saving money over time because a well-maintained system will not break down nearly as often as a system that does not receive that early attention. Finally, you can expect your air-conditioning system to last for a much longer period of time if you maintain it every six months to annually.

Contact JUST CHILLING SERVICES to service your air conditioner before summer. This involves cleaning of the filters, flush the system and regas if necessary to make sure that your air conditioner is working efficiently.
