Cooling Season Planned Maintenance


Cooling Season Planned Maintenance
Factory trained Service Technicians will provide the following:
13 point precision tune-up and professional cleaning services.


 

Clean or Replace Filters: A dirty air filter will reduce the air flow, resulting in inefficient cooling, reduced cooling capacity, poor air filtration, and higher electric bills. Dirty filters also shorten the life of your air conditioner.
If Accessible, Check and Clean Inside Cooling Coil: Foreign material on the coil reduces the system’s ability to cool adequately, so your air conditioning system must run longer, increasing energy consumption and raising your cooling costs.
Clean Primary and Secondary Drains: A clogged condensate drain can cause considerable water damage and will increase humidity levels.
Install Algae Tablets: Algae tablets are used to prevent the growth of mildew on the coils and in the drain pan of the air conditioner, and to reduce the risks of condensate water drain problems.
Monitor Air Conditioning Cycle: Our trained Technician will assure that the air conditioner is cycling on and off properly.
Check and Clean Condenser Coil: Foreign material on the condenser coil reduces the systems’ cooling capacity to remove heat. A dirty coil will increase your cooling cost by 30% or more, and can shorten the life of your air conditioner.
Adjust and Clean Blower Components: Proper adjustment and cleanliness of blower and components is necessary for adequate air flow to assure maximum cooling performance.
Check Operation Pressures for Proper Refrigeration Charge: Improper refrigerant charges – too much or too little can damage the compressor, and will cause high electric bills, and reduced cooling capacity due to inefficient equipment operation.
Monitor Voltage and Amperage Draw on All Motors: Motors are designed to operate at standard voltage and amperage draw. By measuring amperage draw, problems can be identified before unit fails.
Lubricate All Moving Parts Where Applicable: Poor lubrication causes drag in the motor and drive shaft, thereby – requiring more electricity to overcome resistance. This condition will cause early motor or bearing failure.
Check and Tighten All Loose Electrical Connections: Loose electrical connections are a common source of problems which cause your electric parts to fail and your air conditioner to become inoperative
Apply Protective Coating To The Outside Unit: This protective coating will extend the life of the outdoor cabinet, as well as improve its appearance.
Clean and Adjust Thermostat: To ensure even temperature control for your environment.
