You heavily rely on your air conditioning unit to keep your entire family comfortable during hot weather. Air conditioning maintenance by BullsEye Plumbing Heating & Air can help ensure that it remains in good working condition when you need it most. Here are a few tips for maintaining your mini-split.
Keep the Exterior Clean
The exterior of your mini-split can easily become dirty due to dust and debris. Make it a habit to routinely wipe it down with a damp rag. Make sure to also clear the outdoor vents. This practice can stave off the need for air conditioning repair as your unit functions optimally.
Give it Space
Mini-split air conditioners are also known as ductless air conditioners. They need less space than central air conditioning units, but it’s still a good idea to make sure that the area around the unit isn’t too cramped. Make sure you choose a spot that has at least four feet of space between your mini-split and furniture on all sides of the unit. Keep this in mind when you get air conditioning installation.
Clean or Replace the Filters
An air conditioner’s filters naturally become clogged with debris over time and usage. As a result, one of the most important maintenance steps is to clean or replace the filters of your mini-split. While you may think you need air conditioning services, it may be as simple as fresh filters. When the filters are clear, your mini-split will keep you and your family cool and comfortable.
Clean the Coils
The coils and condenser on the outside of your mini-split should also be kept clean and free of dirt, dust and other debris. Turn the power off before cleaning. You can clean them by using your garden hose and wiping away any residing debris.
Inspect the Pipes
The pipes of your unit should also be closely monitored. Like the other components of your mini-split, they can also gather debris. They should be kept clean, but you will also want to check for potential leaks as well.
