To keep your aircon running smoothly and efficiently over the years, its filters, coils, and
fins require regular upkeep.
Air conditioner components often accumulate tiny deposits and suffer wear that isn’t easily
seen. Skipping routine maintenance can lead to a gradual drop in performance and higher
energy consumption. Therefore, it’s important to schedule regular aircon servicing and
maintenance.
Signs Your Aircon Needs Servicing
- Weak or reduced airflow
- Weak or reduced airflow
- Unusual noises coming from the unit
- Malfunctioning thermostat
- Water leaking from the aircon
- Excess humidity in the room
- Compressor running continuously without stopping
- Noticeable rise in electricity bills
When Should You Service Your Aircon?
To maintain its lifespan and efficiency, regular servicing of your aircon is essential. But
how often should this be done?
The timing depends on several factors, including specific signs to watch out for. Generally,
aircon units should be serviced at least once or twice a year. However, manufacturers often
provide maintenance schedules tailored to each model.
The frequency of servicing also depends on how long the aircon is used daily. For units
running less than 8 hours a day, servicing once or twice yearly is usually sufficient. But
if your aircon operates for longer periods, more frequent servicing—such as every three
months—may be necessary to keep it performing optimally.
Additionally, the location of the outdoor unit impacts servicing needs. If it’s placed near
busy streets or areas with heavy dust and pollution, it will accumulate dirt faster and
require more frequent cleaning compared to units situated in cleaner, quieter environments.
