The Ultimate Guide To Aircon Unit Efficiency

There are multiple facets to ensure an aircon unit’s efficiency throughout its lifespan. This article will guide and provide you with the tips and tricks you need in order to sustain your aircon unit.

Before anything let us take a look at some red flags to take note of to identify when your aircon unit is not working efficiently.

Red Flags

Frequent servicing is needed. Yes, your aircon unit is crying for help and servicing and is probably not going to help you much. Your aircon unit is probably reaching its end and it is suggested you brace yourself to say goodbye to it.

Costly servicing is needed. Please consider how much you are spending on your aircon unit to maintain it. Too frequent and expensive servicing could show a trend that may suggest that you would be better off with a newer aircon unit. Here are some of the aircon units you can consider purchasing.

These two are the biggest red flags I could easily identify. If there are others you know of, please share the following pieces of information with them. Now, let’s look at how you can manage the efficiency of your aircon unit.

Change Your Aircon Unit’s Filter

Just like your vacuums, your aircon unit also has filters in them. You can easily pull them out and wash them. Typically what I do is use a toothbrush which I keep aside just for these filters and gently dust the dust and sediments collected on the filter. Do this and check your aircon unit afterward. If you’re not convinced about why you should change your air filter, here are 5 important reasons for having a clean aircon unit filter.

Regular Maintenance

Look for a professional aircon servicing company with who you would trust your aircon unit. Just like how to do maintenance for your vehicles and whatnot, show your aircon unit the same kind of love too. Explore different packages to suit your needs and wants. Contact the professional aircon servicing company for more details before making a decision. Find it bothersome to look for a suitable professional aircon servicing company? Well, here’s the complete guide you need to choose the right one.

Give It Breaks

At home, despite it making life so much more comfortable. Please give your aircon unit breaks here and there to ensure it is not being overworked. It may bail on you one day if you overwork it too much. Make use of the thermostat controller to have scheduled turn-off times if you tend to fall asleep with the aircon unit running all night. Open up the windows every now and then to circulate the household and freshen up the space.

Make Use Of Fans

We are sure your households would have fans installed either on the ceilings or the standing fans placed around. Singapore is too hot to not have fans around to keep you cool. Use fans as a tool to circulate the cold air faster as compared to the in-built fans aircon units have. This would help you reduce the usage time as mentioned earlier in the above point.

Set The Correct Temperature

Make sure you set your aircon unit to the correct temperature to reap the best results. For example, we do not want to run the aircon unit at 28 degrees aimlessly for hours when our room temperature is around the same. The recommended temperature for both energy efficiency and cost efficiency would be 25 degrees. You can increase or decrease based on your needs but have a standardized temperature for you to use.

Conclusion

Aircon units are a key part of our lives now. Majority if not all households have aircon units in their households. To ensure your aircon unit is running effectively and all is working fine, you may want a specialist’s input. Again, do remember that regular maintenance is vital to ensure aircon unit efficiency. Give your aircon unit the boost it needs.
