Air Conditioning Maintenance in Dallas-Fort Worth, TX

AC SYSTEM MAINTENANCE SUGGESTIONS

A little routine upkeep can go a long way. So prior to you setting up a maintenance visit, here are some things to be aware of that can help improve your comfort level in your home, as well as the efficiency of your ac unit.

Change or clean the air filters:

The most crucial maintenance task that will certainly boost the performance of your HVAC unit is to consistently replace or clean the air filters. Change one-inch pleated filters once a month. If you’re not sure of the sort of filter to utilize, Master Tech Service Corp. can suggest one based upon your specific system. For all other filter dimensions, Master Tech Service Corp. will inspect, clean, or change them at your yearly upkeep visit. Bear in mind, filters may need more frequent attention if your air conditioning unit remains consistently in operation. Other factors are if your unit is subject to dusty conditions, or you have animals in the house. Contact Master Tech Service Corp. to find out what frequency of filter adjustment is appropriate for your system.

Clean the ac system’s coils:

The ac system’s condenser coils accumulate dirt over time. This dust decreases airflow as well as prevents the coil from to take in warmth. Outside condenser coils can get really dirty if the exterior setting is dusty or if there is vegetation nearby. To prevent these problems, Master Tech Service Corp. will examine and clean your air conditioning system’s coils, if needed, at your annual maintenance visit.

Get rid of particles from the unit:

With time, things like leaves, dust, and yard clippings will accumulate on the outside of your ac system, decreasing system capacity and minimizing airflow. You should cut any kind of hedges or other plants back from around the ac system to keep from impeding airflow to and from the system.

Correct the alignment of coil fins:

The lightweight aluminum fins on the evaporator and condenser coils are easily bent and can obstruct airflow through the coil. Master Tech Service Corp. will inspect these components at your yearly maintenance check-up and also align them, if needed.
