Why is HVAC Maintenance Essential?

HVAC systems are exposed to outside elements and are susceptible to harsh weather conditions. Regular maintenance keeps your heating and cooling units in proper working condition for a long time. It helps to avoid equipment breakdowns, improve your unit's efficiency, extend its lifespan, and save money on energy bills. We recommend that you get your HVAC equipment serviced at least four times a year.

• Discussing with the facility management about their HVAC problems and needs
• Performing belt inspection for tension, alignment, and condition
• Cleaning and replacing filters
• Inspection and cleaning of coils, fans, blowers, motors, etc.
• Checking electrical wiring and connections
• Inspecting the heat exchanger for issues such as rust, cracks, or leaks
• Checking refrigerant pressure and oil levels
• Lubrication of motor bearings
• Checking whether the controls and components are operational and fix issues
• Cleaning the area surrounding the HVAC unit 
• Preparing a maintenance report and consulting with the management or owner about the findings
• Providing necessary recommendations

Condenser coils are present inside the condensing unit, which is located outside your facility or building. After the refrigerant in gas form collects the heat inside your building, it travels to the condenser coils, where the heat is transferred to the air that's blown over the coils. The refrigerant inside the condenser coils cools down, turns back into liquid, and is sent back into your space.

With time or due to extensive usage, dirt and debris enter your condensing unit and form a coating on the condensing coil. This reduces the condenser coil's efficiency as it is harder to transfer heat to the outside air when the coil is covered with dirt. If not cleaned on time, the efficiency of your air conditioner reduces, making it consume more energy, which in turn increases your energy bills. Unclean coils can cause compressor and motor failure too. We recommend that you get your condenser cleaned once a year, at least.
