Some of these tricks will prevent AC repair in Plano for the short term, others are for the long term. All of these tips are easy for someone with even a small amount of mechanical abilities.

With all of the high tech abilities of any gadget that may or may not help your AC unit at the house or office, i can tell you that none of them are listed on this prevention list for AC repair Plano.

1. Clean, Clean, Clean.


  I say it three times, because "dirt" is the single most destructive force and causes the most AC repair in Plano.

Always keep the outside unit free of leaves, trash and make sure the fins of the coil surrounding the unit are cleaned at least once a year. In some cases it may be necessary to clean the coils more than that.


2.  If your AC system sits on the ground, most do in Plano, then you might encounter problems with ants getting into the electronics of your outdoor unit, if so a couple of moth balls inside the electrical panel will definitely deter any insects from going in your unit.


3.  if you have a dog and he or she comes into regular contact with the AC system, make sure boys don't pee on it ever, you can expect the life of that coil to last about 3 years if it gets pee'ed on. If they like to chew make sure and put some kind of metal around the lines where they go into the house.

Electronic Filters and the role they could play in your air conditioning repair in Plano.

With all of the different type of electronic filters on the market today, they are almost all cleaned the same way. they cleaning will vary from place to place but should always be done at least once a year.

First thing to do it to turn off the power to the indoor unit.  After the powers is turned off you should remove the door to the electronic filter, and then remove the filter one piece at a time. Note that their is usually at least three pieces of an electronic filter. Two electric grids and one pre-screen filter.

After you safely remove the filter form the housing, then you want to wash the really dirty ones with water and soap and rinse very well. If a part of the filter is not quite as dirty then a dry paint brush will knock off the dust. Note that if their is any type of electronic part, circuit board or electric wire hanging out, then more than likely you will need to get your dry paint brush on it and keep the water for the other parts of the filter.

The proper operation, and efficiency of the air conditioning system relies on the fact that air must move through your indoor unit at a certain rate, and when that rate is slowed down potential damages tend to occur.

After reading this article hopefully you will be interested in cleaning your electronic air filter more frequently.  In conclusion your air conditioner will last longer and use less electricity when the filter is clean and everything is working like it should.
