Regardless of where you live, whether it be a tropical or temperate region, an air conditioner is a necessity.
In the summer months, when the weather is hot, using this appliance to cool oneself down can be so refreshing.
But in order for it to work properly and efficiently, your AC requires regular maintenance and cleaning.
In this post, we will show you how to conduct an effective aircond chemical service.
At first glance, doing maintenance, repairs, and aircond service (AC) may seem like a daunting task.
But if you properly clean the condenser coils and drain the drip pan, then replace its filters regularly, you can maintain your AC unit to ensure that it works well for years to come.
In addition, it is a good idea to conduct a chemical service since this can prevent potential problems from developing.
This procedure will also clean the internal parts of your AC system as well as the surrounding area.
(1) Raise the front cover of your AC and pull out its drip pan from under. Disconnect the electrical cable of your AC. Due to the type of quick chemical wash, we are not going to dismantle the unit.
On the outdoor unit, clean the condenser coils by using a water hose or water pump. Also, clean the surrounding area around your unit.
Making sure that you had completely disconnected the power and avoid spraying water around the electronic components.
(2) Afterward, unplug it and raise its front cover. Again, make sure that you had disconnected the electrical cable of your air conditioning unit. Remove the front panel from your unit by removing its screws.
Note: There might need some unscrewing (depending on the model), make sure you do this delicately and not by force.
Disassemble them at their hinges or latches slowly so as not to damage them. Clean all parts of your AC dip after you had removed them. If possible, cover the side part of the electronic section using a plastic bag.
Now, spray some chemical compound on the indoor cooling coil and on the blowing fan as well. Let it be subtle for a while (5 minutes will do), and start watering out the chemical. Do not brush the cooling coil as it might damage the cooling fins.
Once all of these have been cleaned thoroughly, wipe your AC unit with damp towels to remove any visible stains.
(3) Reassemble all the parts of your AC unit. Make sure that the screws, clips, and screw covers are secured tightly. Close its front cover. Connect the electrical cable of your AC unit to its power supply once again.
Raise its front cover and insert your drip pan back into its proper position if you had removed it earlier.
Then, turn on its power supply once again and set it to the DRY mode for an hour before using it.
The above procedures are for the quick type of chemical cleaning without dismantling your air conditioner unit.
