The AC unit is a machine with great responsibility. It works hard to cool small and large spaces. It is essential to conduct annual air conditioning service for it to perform at its peak at all times. <\/p>\n
Dirty Units<\/p>\n
There is a portion of the unit that is outdoors day after day. It collects dirt, endures extreme weather conditions and is subject to damage from flying debris. Clogged vents or other areas could lead to problems with the AC when it is most needed, during the summer months. Build-up and dirt on a unit can cause major problems with the unit. Annual cleaning or air conditioning service could prevent the need to repair or replace the unit. <\/p>\n
Maintenance Schedule<\/p>\n
Many people wonder how often they should have their air conditioner serviced. This will vary among users, but the basics are relatively similar. An annual air conditioning service is suggested for almost every scenario. <\/p>\n
Manufacturers will recommend various cleaning and service cycles. Adhere to the suggestions they set forth to get the most from your unit. Age and extent of use will influence cleaning and service cycles but here are a few areas to always check. <\/p>\n

When Not in Use<\/p>\n
Air conditioning servicing does not require much maintenance when not in use. Some people wonder if covering their unit is a good idea. AC units are designed to endure the changing seasons. Covering them can result in condensation and corrosion. Covering the unit also creates a habitat for small animals to shield themselves from the winter weather. They can damage the unit by destroying the wires and other components, which leads to problems in future use. <\/p>\n
