Please read all of the appliance maintenance tips
below. All of the simple tips are meant to prevent your
appliances from future failure. Appliance repairs can be
costly and 99% of the time the reason for that is improper
usage or lack of very basic maintenance. We strongly encourage
that if your appliance, air conditioning or heating unit
don’t function properly and requires repair, simply
call one of our service technicians who has the knowledge,
experience and right tools to fix it. San Jose Air conditioning
/ Heating and Appliance repairs is available for all
your needs.
Most importantly, however, you can keep your air conditioning
running the way they should merely by following certain
simple preventive maintenance procedures regularly. Not
only will such maintenance help you derive the benefits
of maximum efficiency and performance, but it will also
result in a longer and more trouble-free life for your air
conditioner.
AIR CONDITIONERS
maintenance tips
The air conditioner moves heat from one area to another
much like the cooling system in a frostless refrigerator.
Inside the unit there is a coil called the evaporator, and
it is the component that gets cold. A fan pulls heated air
from the room across the evaporator coil, and then pushes
the cooled air into the living area. Warm air is constantly
being pulled back through the air conditioner unit and across
the coil, creating a complete recirculating process. In
addition, the air conditioner helps to lower the humidity
level in your home, and thereby enhance the comfort of the
living area. The moisture in the heat-laden air tends to
collect upon the chilled coils of the evaporator, much as
condensation does on the outside of a glass of iced tea
during summertime.
What happens to the heat? It is carried by the refrigeration
system to an exterior coil called the condenser. The condenser,
which is hot to the touch, is exposed to the outside air.
The circulating outside air absorbs the heat, dispelling
it outside your home. Meanwhile, air is continually pulled
through louvers in the sides of the cabinet and pushed out
through the coils. This process eventually eliminates enough
of the hot air in your home to make it comfortable.
The same heat-removal principles apply as much to an automobile's
air conditioning system as they do to a centralized home
or window unit. In a car, the evaporator (which is located
behind the dash) removes the heat and transfers it to the
condenser (usually located in front of the car's ii radiator).
In a home central air conditioning system, the condenser
and compressor may be remote (located on the roof or as
a separate unit somewhere outside the house). The evaporator
of a central air conditioning system is placed within the
supply duct plenum of the furnace.
The compressor acts as a pump to circulate the refrigerant
through the system. Therefore, you can control the temperature
in your home with a thermostat which simply turns the compressor
on and off to maintain the degree of coolness you desire.
In most cases, the system's blowers continue to run even
when the compressor is off. Fan motors consume only a small
amount of electricity, and they help keep air circulating
within the room even when the cooling system itself is not
required. Without continual air
circulation, the cold air would collect near the floor,
a condition known as "stratification" which can
be quite uncomfortable.
All air conditioners require regular maintenance, consisting
primarily of the cleaning and replacing of filters at specified
intervals (once every 30 days is not too often). Dirty filters,
as you would expect, reduce the air flow and lower the efficiency
of the unit. In severe cases, filters that fail to do their
job can even damage the evaporator and the compressor. Therefore,
you must clean or change the filters regularly.
Filters made of foam or aluminum are washable, you can flush
these filters with a hose from the back side. Some air conditioner
manufacturers recommend that you then coat the clean filter
fibers with a special adhesive to trap particles as the
air passes through the filter. Fiberglass filters, however,
cannot be cleaned; you must replace fiberglass filters when
they become dirty.
If a filter has been clogged for a long period of time,
lint and dirt can work their way through to clog the evaporator
coil itself. You can remedy this situation by applying a
special cleaning solution or a strong liquid detergent to
the coil. Spread the solution on the coil and allow it to
soak for a few minutes. Then spray the coil with water,
and brush away the residue from the front. Continue to flush
the coil until it appears to be free from lint and dirt
once again.
The water you use to rinse the evaporator coil will flow
out the same drain line that carries off condensate water
when the air conditioner is operating. Such water usually
flows across the base pan to a sump located at the bottom
of the condenser fan blade. This fan blade has a special
ring around it (called a "slinger" ring) that
rises through the puddle at the bottom of the condenser.
The slinger ring helps eliminate dripping — except
in the most humid weather — and it also increases
the efficiency of the condenser.
