  2. Just before the summers set in is a crucial time for maintaining your air conditioning system. If you do not ensure that your unit is actually turning-on, on flipping the switch before the summers begin, you might have to sweat as a result of high temperatures. It is so because due to staying stale, the unit can collect dust, leaves, and debris that can reduce its efficiency. So, here are some tips that you can follow to prepare the system for summer. Let’s have a glance!

  3. Tips to prepare your air conditioning system for the season ·  Cleaning and servicing instructions: Before starting with the cleaning, make sure to shut off the power to the condenser. Next, begin the tidying up process with your filters. If your filter is reusable, simply clean it with soap and water; otherwise, replace it in the required time. The primary sign that your filter requires maintenance is the dusty look and restricted airflow, which reduces the efficiency of the aircon. Besides, the condenser coils also get clogged over time, reducing their effectiveness. That is why you need to clean them before summers set in. For doing so, open the condenser unit and, using a brush or vacuum, clean it. You are also advised to check the coolant lines and see if they are covered in foam. If you observe missing or frayed parts, replace them with a new insulation foam sleeve. Those who have multi-split ACs should check the direction the louvres are facing. They should be made to face the ceiling during summers. It aids in circulating cool air evenly.

  4. ·  Conduct a performance check: Before finally approving your air conditioning system, you should conduct a performance check. For doing so, first of all, allow your air conditioning unit to dry off thoroughly. Now, turn on the main panel and switch on your thermostat to ensure your aircon is working. In case you see anything wrong, you should contact a technician. He will also check your circuit breakers, wiring, and fusing. Finally, if the connections require tightening, he will handle them for you. · Maintain your air conditioners temperature: During summers, you may feel tempted to crack the temperatures of the air conditioning unit to a minimum. However, doing so is not recommended as it can increase your electricity bill. Instead, you should keep the setting similar to the outside temperature. Ideally, the set temperature must be between 23 and 25 degrees. However, there are certain factors that you must consider before deciding on that. These include considering at what temperature you feel most comfortable, the number of people in the house, and the amount of sunlight that enters your home.  So, these are a few tips that you should follow to ensure proper maintenance of your air conditioning unit before the summers begin. Doing so will help you avoid a crisis that includes poor AC performance and sweltering heat.
