Why is it necessary?
Long use of AC’s cause damage to your appliance. It is necessary for you to do a complete AC tune up so that you do not encounter problems in the near future. It is always better to get your appliance checked up than to later call an appliance repair company to fix it. Rusting, oiling and battery replacement are the basic components that have to be taken care periodically to ensure smooth running of your machines. If you undertake a check-up periodically, your AC will last longer and you will get first -hand information about the health of your machine.
Repairing components of your AC after it breakdowns is an expensive affair. Hence it is necessary to identify it at root level and repair it or change it. Air condition maintenance is not expensive at all. You can guarantee safety of all your HVAC equipment like AC’s or new home AC insulations by covering them with a maintenance plan.
What components are inspected during an AC tune up?
During a routine inspection, care is taken to examine all the exterior and interior parts of the AC. Oiling and lubrication are done for proper motor functions. Here is a list of some of them:
- To get your system running at peak efficiency, the pressure of the coolant is regulated and the levels are checked. If there are any leaks in the coolant, they are plugged immediately.
- To increase the comfort level of the customer and give him easy control, the thermostats are re-calibrated. They also monitor the cycles and temperature.
- All the wirings and terminals are checked for loose connections. If any, they are repaired immediately.
- Usually the evaporator coil and the condenser drain get clogged with dust. During AC maintenance, these components are cleaned.
- The fan motors of the compressor are checked. Rust will decrease the efficiency of the compressor. Hence, these components are oiled properly.
- The compressor amps are noted when the compressor starts.
- Along with monitoring all these aspects of the AC, additional safety measures are checked.
A report is submitted after the check-up and detailed information is given to the customer regarding the health of the various components of the air conditioner.
