The major parts of the air conditioner
such as filter, fins and coils need to function properly and effectively for
the duration of the life of the air conditioner. Before the start of the season, these parts of
the air conditioner should be cleaned properly. The filters and coils can be
cleaned at home. Here the some easy tips
for maintaining the air conditioner properly.
Filters should be cleaned because the
dirty, clogged filters block the normal flow of air and reduce the efficiency
of the air conditioner. When the normal air is blocked, the air bypasses the
filters and carries the dirt into evaporator coil. This impairs the heat
absorbing ability of the coil. Cleaning filters from time to time or replacing
them with new one will reduce the energy consumption of the air condition by at
least 15 percent.
For the central air conditioner, the
filters are located near the return duct‘s length. Come air conditioners have
filters in the main body. Room air conditioners have filters near the grill
that is close to side facing the window.

become dirty, if there is dirty environment in which an air conditioner operates.
