We provide the highest quality of aircon repair, installation and maintenance for Brisbane and surrounding suburbs. This includes expert, regularly scheduled cleaning and maintenance to give you peace of mind throughout the summer, or any season for that matter.
Some manufacturers recommend aircon maintenance every quarter or every six months. But usage and environment conditions can also affect individual parts differently and impact the frequency of these schedules. We can work with you to find the balance or recommend a schedule based on our initial assessment. But if you haven’t had the unit serviced for quite a while, look out for the following timings or signs.
It’s a good practice to clean filters before the start of the cooling or heating season. But to take it further, we recommend inspecting and cleaning the filters every 2 weeks during these seasons. Your AC’s manual may also provide specific benchmarks on how to keep the unit prepared for certain seasons and weather conditions.
Reduced cooling levels is one of the clear signs that your AC unit is up for maintenance. A lot of times, you can clean or replace the filter as an initial response. But if that doesn’t improve the performance, it's best to rely on professionals to give the unit a thorough inspection and clean.
Cleaning the aircon unit following a surge in daily usage is an excellent precautionary measure, especially if you stand to keep the usage level at such a rate for an extended period.
Dust accumulates in your filtration system over time, no two ways about it. The good news is that it’s one of the easier signs to spot either visibly or when the performance of your AC slightly takes a hit. The advantage of having a professional HVAC cleaning service handle the job is that they will clean past the filters and give the AC a more rigorous touch up.
Dust build up ramps up when renovation or construction is being done on your premise. In which case, you can move your scheduled cleanup sooner to prevent particles from clogging the air circulation.
Having clogged air filters can reduce airflow through your air conditioning system. Cleaning the filters can improve airflow as well as improve performance of the system.
Some parts are best cleaned between 2 to 3 months while others can withstand longer. You can refer to the AC manual for an estimate or ask a professional for inspection and advice.
Spraying water while the air conditioner is running can potentially damage the unit, particularly the coils which are sensitive to excessive moisture.
The cooling efficiency will go down while other concerns will arise later on.
You might notice the aircon taking longer cycles before it can bring the temperature down to your desired levels. The coils will also likely be frozen if it’s dirty or faulty.
Aircons are generally ready in 5 to 10 minutes after general cleaning. However, more rigorous cleaning, with work being done on the condenser coils, will take 30 to 60 minutes of downtime.
