Common problems with air conditioning units
People would be surprised to know that one of the most common causes of air conditioner failure can be easily avoided. Most times air conditioner units do not function properly due to blocked coil fins. Coil fins can become blocked or damaged by debris due to lack of regular cleaning.
Even state of the art systems require regular cleaning to remove dirt and leaf debris. Now, this does not mean that you should run out there with a power washer and a brush. These units can be easily damaged. A proper cleaning requires a special coil cleaning solvent and special brushes. Here at Friendly we use a 100% environmentally safe solution as not to damage surrounding shrubs and greenery. This process is best performed by a qualified service professional.
Cleaning and maintaining your exterior coil fins will allow your unit to run more efficiently and cool off your home more quickly. The more air flow that the unit has, the better it will remove the heat from within your home and therefore cool down your home faster.
We can appreciate that these days people are looking to save a dollar whenever possible, but doing the maintenance yourself may not be the best solution. We suggest that if you are looking to save money… that you simply hire a qualified professional to do the necessary maintenance on your unit. The best investment that you can make today is to regularly clean and tune-up the high dollar appliances in your home such as the air conditioner and the furnace. The savings from avoiding costly repairs will more than out weigh the cost of the maintenance itself.
