Always Cool: How To Make Your AC System Function Well Through The Year

The climate in Dubai can be very warm throughout the year. While temperatures do become lower during the winter months, they rarely fall below 20°C. Therefore, to stay cool, you need to ensure your air conditioning system can continuously operate properly. You can achieve this through regular ac maintenance. If you are unfamiliar with what you need to do, you are at the right place. We will explore the essential things you need to do to ensure your system functions well, always.

Clean your air filters.

The air filters are one of the components of your Air conditioner that is easiest to clean. Although, this does not apply to an HVAC system, which nearly always requires professionals to clean them as you will be unable to access their components. On the other hand, you can open domestic air conditioners and clean the air filters. 

The air filters clean the air that circulates through your air conditioning system. They trap particles that could contaminate the air in the room and endanger your health, such as dust, dirt, and pollen. Suppose they become covered by a thick layer of dirt. In that case, the air conditioner will not cool the room sufficiently as the clogged filters will not allow air to pass through smoothly. 

If your filter is removable, you can take them out and remove the layer of dust with a brush and moist cloth before placing them back inside. It will greatly increase the cooling capacity of the AC. You will need to clean the filters at least every two months to maintain the results.

Clean your AC Duct

If you have an HVAC system, as mentioned before, you will need to hire professionals because the system mainly comprises a series of ducts. And ac duct cleaning is impossible without industrial-grade equipment. In addition, the vents are extensive and need to be taken care of as they could become damaged if an improper cleaning is used. They can also gather dust and grime, and as there is moisture in the air, there is a high chance of mold if not cleaned regularly.

To clean the ducts, we use hi-tech, eco-friendly tools to remove dust and grime regardless of where they are in the system. We will also ensure that if there is mold present, they are entirely removed. The surface is additionally disinfected to eliminate the possibility of re-growth. Ac duct cleaning needs to be carried out at least twice a year to maintain maximum efficiency.

Clean the coils

The air conditioning system comprises coils in the evaporator and condenser unit. They are meant to absorb heat produced during the operation of the AC so that it will not interfere with its cooling ability. However, they can collect dirt over time, reducing airflow and making it difficult to cool the room correctly. 

If you can access your condenser unit, you could remove large bits of dirt. Then you can apply a self-rinsing evaporator oil that will clean the coil once your air conditioning system is turned on.

Maintaining your air conditioning system will help ensure that it can always operate smoothly. However, while you can clean some components, you need to follow the right technique recommended by the manufacturer.
