The Importance of Getting Your Air Conditioner Deep Cleaned
Your air conditioning systems will likely work overtime due to the Caribbean's hot, salty, and humid environment. If you are worried about whether your AC unit is working at its optimum, now is the perfect time schedule a deep clean by a professional. But before you consider your next steps, let's dive into what a deep clean is and how it can impact your health, energy bills, and the longevity of your AC system.
What is an air conditioner deep clean?
An air conditioner deep clean includes cleaning internal components such as coils, fins, and drainage to remove dust, mold, and bacteria buildup. We recommend getting a deep clean every four months to keep your air conditioner running at its best. Due to harsh environment, air conditioners run overtime.
In the meantime, you can clean the dust filters yourself according to the manufacturer's; a few times a year is recommended to ensure optimum performance.
A professional should perform a deep clean, as it involves removing, thoroughly cleaning and sanitizing (using non-toxic products) electric components, flushing the drain, testing the unit for any excess moisture, and checking the external unit for any damage, obstructions, or mold growth. This process takes about an hour per unit, depending on the size and height at which the unit is installed.
Benefits of getting your air conditioner deep cleaned
Regularly cleaning and maintaining your air conditioning unit is to ensure better air quality and energy efficiency, lower running costs, and maximized unit lifespan.
When drawing in air from your environment, the air conditioning unit filters out pollutants like dust, pollen, and dead skin particles to produce cool air. However, over time, if the unit is not maintained, these contaminants can clog the system and lead to the formation of mold, dust, and bacteria, which can be dangerous for individuals with respiratory issues or allergies. Additionally, a clogged system means the unit won't function optimally, leading to higher cooling costs and potential breakdowns that could be costly to fix.
