Basic Steps to Ensure your Air Conditioner is Ready for the Summer Weather

Summer is Here … We think!

Below are a few basic steps to ensure your air conditioning is operating correctly and prepare your ac before the really hot weather hits:

1. Ensure all filters have been cleaned. Air filters of your ac unit that are not cleaned will cause your system to fail! Here’s why:

  • Dirty air conditioner return filters reduce airflow and may cause the ductwork to collapse.
  • Dirty blocked split inverter air conditioner filters will cause the system to operate at a low capacity, reducing the effectiveness of your air conditioner – you won’t achieve the cool temperatures in your home that you are seeking.
  • With dirty filters, eventually, your air conditioner will break down and reduce the airflow which could be really uncomfortable on a hot day. Dirty filters can also cause your air conditioner to leak water into your roof or house, causing much damage and costly cleanup. If you require assistance and you are in Melbourne and Melbourne suburbs, please call for a Nortan air conditioning service specialist to clean or replace the filters.

2. Check batteries. Air conditioners that have remote controllers require batteries.

3. Check the power supply. Both inverter air conditioners and ducted refrigerated air conditioners need the power to cool. If your air conditioner is not cooling your home:

  • Check if someone has unplugged the power supply or turned off the power at the wall.

4. Check drainage. Aside from being caused by dirty filters in your reverse cycle air conditioner, water may leak from your air conditioner if:

  • The drain on the inverter is blocked. If you don’t know where the drain comes out you may need a HVAC technician to help you locate and clean.
  • It is also a good idea to check if the ducted air conditioner in the roof has been knocked or moved over the winter period.

Servicing your air conditioner regularly is essential for you to keep cool this hot summer and save money on costly repairs and high energy bills.
