TOP 5 THINGS THAT CAN GO WRONG

WITH YOUR AIR CONDITIONING AND

WHY YOU SHOULD AVOID THEM

Failure in the AC compressor makes

the whole cooling system break

down and this is one major

catastrophe that can be avoided by

adhering to proper maintenance and

correcting problems promptly.

Here are the top five things that

can go wrong and why you

should avoid them

1.DIRTY COILS

When mineral scales, grime and

dust form up on the condenser coil,

the AC is unable to expel enough

heat.

AC has to run constantly and is

stressed to maintain cool

temperature. This will make the

compressor overheat and cause it

to fail.

When the coils are dirty, it will not

be possible for the air conditioner to

absorb heat from your home and

thus cause many problems that

could have been resolved in the first

instance with regular maintenance.

2.BLOCKED

SUCTION LINES

When the refrigerant lines of your air

conditioner are damaged, cooling will no

longer be there despite the fact that air

conditioning is working overtime.

When you fail to maintain the system,

there will be increased temperature and

pressure making the AC overheat and

eventually fail.

3.ELECTRICAL

PROBLEMS

Electrical problems make acids build up

in the Air Conditioning System and this

damages other parts of the air

conditioner.

It is crucial that you get a technician to

test the presence of the acids in your

failed air conditioner.

Electrical problems are preventable

when regular inspections are done to

the air conditioner.

During the examination, the technician

will be able to spot any damaged fuses

and wiring and fix them before they

damage the compressor completely.

4.INADEQUATE OIL LUBRICANT

Oil lubricant for the air conditioner is as essential as blood is to the body.

If the air conditioner lacks enough oil, then it will not work as effectively as expected.

This may also cause some problems with the AC and later cause it to fail as parts are not

lubricated and will fail quickly over time.

When the AC is regularly maintained by a professional, he will check the levels of the lubricant

and the oil pump condition to prevent it from getting damaged.

5.LOW

REFRIGERANT

CHARGE

When the refrigerant line of the AC

system develops cracks or holes,

then it leaks refrigerant. The

compressor is forced to work harder

than expected in order to pump

enough refrigerant to cool the room.

The strain can make the compressor

fail and overheating will cause other

issues in the system.

IF YOU CAN’T

MAINTAIN IT, LET

THE A-TEAM

MAINTAIN IT It is advisable to have a maintenance

contract with your AC Company to

negate the issues and save you far

more money.

The cost of a air conditioning

maintenance contract far out weighs

the expense of repairs and replacement

in the near future.
