Why should you clean your air conditioner this spring?

It’s natural for us to forget or postpone important tasks until it’s too late, but the summer is upon us, and the days will get increasingly hot and humid. The spring is the perfect time to catch up with your air con cleaning and maintenance to avoid delays and peak service costs during the summer months.

When you realise that your air conditioner is in severe need of service, all of the cleaning and repair specialists are booked up, and that you’re stranded in your home in the sweltering heat. Don’t let your house turn into a sauna!

3 things to consider why you need to clean your air conditioner this spring

#1. To save your power bill

Contaminants will accumulate in the coil and the barrel over time, limiting the amount of airflow through the unit. This causes the unit to use more electricity, over-working your air conditioner.

#2. To increase your air conditioner performance

Your air conditioner will also perform less efficiently if the airflow is restricted. The cooling/heating of your room will take longer than usual. After a thorough cleaning, your air conditioner will reach the desired temperature faster and with less energy use.

#3. To improve the air that you breathe

The build-up of hazardous mould and germs inside your air-conditioning unit blasts through your home and into the air you breathe every time your air conditioner operates. Mould and mildew can be removed from your air conditioner by having it professionally cleaned.

How often should I get my air con cleaned?

Dirt, grease, oil, mould, and other impurities accumulate throughout the unit, obstructing air movement and contaminating the air with harmful mould spores over time.

Just like you service your car every 10,00-15,000 km, air conditioners should be frequently maintained to keep them running at full efficiency and extend their life. As a general rule, we recommend cleaning your air conditioner once a year, when the seasons shift from winter to summer.
