It is important that you get your annual AC clean and check for a few reasons.
-Your AC is responsible for 30% of your energy costs each year and by keeping it clean you make it more efficient so it takes less energy to run which saves you money.
-When your AC sits through the winter, it collects dust and debris which is why it tends to smell like burning when you first turn it on. Cleaning it takes away all that dust and debris which allows your system to run better. When dust and debris clog the system, you lose cooling and increase the energy needed to run.
-Having an annual clean and check allows you to find and fix problems when they are small instead of waiting until they break when you need them the most and that makes everything way more expensive.
-Cleaning your AC increases its lifespan and makes the system last longer. Air conditioners can be pretty expensive, so the longer you can keep yours running the better off you are.
When we come out to do a clean and check for you we go through a 28 point inspection on the system. Some of the things we check through are
-Check Thermostat
-Clean condenser coil
-Check Volts and Amps
-Check pressure, temperature, and refrigerant
-Check filters, blower, electrical panel, and condensate line
-Check the total performance of the system
When getting an AC clean and check, you make sure your system is running to its full capacity and will be there when you need it.
This is what your coil looks like when you don’t clean it, below is an example of what a clean AC Coil should look like. All that dust and dirt really keep it from running its best and can cause it to break down completely so call Bartlett Heating and Air today to schedule your clean and check.
