Air conditioning mechanics
Running an air conditioner is not cheap, especially in our Perth summers, but a good way to make sure yours is running as efficiently as possible is to get a regular service from a qualified air conditioning mechanic.
Why air conditioner maintenance is important
The old saying 'a stitch in time saves nine' can be directly applied to regular air conditioner maintenance. Not only will you extend the life of your air conditioner, you'll bring down running costs and prevent as many allergens and dust particles from entering your living areas. Any air conditioning mechanic worth their salt will check the following:
- Checking all hoses for leaks
- Filter inspection and clean/change as required
- Checking compressor for dirt build-up and given a wash down
- Ensuring there is enough refrigerant in the supply
- Checking thermostat is supplying accurate temperature
How often should I get my air conditioner serviced?
You should get your air conditioning unit checked by a professional once a year, just before summer. It's not advisable to carry out any major maintenance yourself. You can clean the evaporator filters and hose down the condenser from time to time, but for anything electrical, you're best to call in a licensed air conditioning mechanic. Likewise, if you're a fully qualified air conditioning mechanic in the Perth area, you can list your business on PerthMechanics.com.au and get targeted website traffic visiting your site.
