Why should ,you have Preventative” Maintenance done on your, air conditioning system.

 

The reason preventive, maintenance is so important is the numerous problems, that can arise from not having a PM done periodically, One of the biggest and most prevalent. issues is when the air handler is leaking water. The most common reason for this is a clogged drain line. During the regular use of your A/C unit water is constantly flowing from your unit, to the outside of your home or business. The water comes from the hot” humid air meeting the cold air that, passes through the evaporator coil. The water usually drains to the outside through a PVC pipe!

That constant flow of ,water will always result in a build-up of algae. During a routine PM, our SFD technician will clear the PVC with nitrogen. If this isn’t routinely done the algae will build up and clog the pipe. This will result in the float switch connected! to the unit shutting off and the A/C will leak water. Another common problem that arises, from the lack of Preventive Maintenance is a dirty evaporator coil.

Having a dirty evaporator coil can and will cause many problems throughout the air conditioning system. A dirty coil can cause anything, from a water leak to a blown-out compressor. When your coil is dirty it will strain every other “component in your AC system. This is what causes failures and breakdowns During a routine, PM the coil and more importantly the filter. will be checked and changed by our SFD AC technician. Checked to make sure that the filter is doing its job and protecting the coil from becoming dirty and changed because filters need to be changed every 1-3 ,months depending on the filter and the conditions of the home or business! When the coil is dirty it is almost always a result of a dirty or improperly placed filter. This can lead to needing a replacement.
