Normally, the air conditioning system in your home gives you very little thought. Most air conditioning units are designed to last for many years and will provide superior indoor comfort as long as certain preventive maintenance is performed. Most of the time, you set your thermostat to control your desired temperature and go about your day.
Don't forget to give this essential system the service that it needs so that it can continue doing its job for you. Atlanta air conditioning service is just a phone call away at Reliable Heating and Air.
According to Sustainable Sources, the efficiency of your residential air conditioner relies on its maintenance schedule. Routine service helps air conditioners run more efficiently and last
longer. In fact, an A/C unit that is not cared for throughout the years will operate up to 30% less efficiently.
That equates to a huge impact on utility bills over the life of the unit. Fortunately, the cost of the service will most likely be recouped over the upcoming months' energy bills.
A Reliable Heating and Air service visit includes cleaning the condenser coil, checking the amp draw of the compressor, oiling the fan motors, checking that all electrical connections are well tightened, along with checking the systems operating pressures and temperatures against the manufacturer's specifications.
Our Reliable technician will also check the refrigerant charge in your unit. A system that is only 10% low on its Freon level will likely cost you 30% more to operate. Consequently, the Air Conditioning Contractors of America (ACCA) encourages A/C owners to check their system's refrigerant charge once a year. Since the disposal and handling of this refrigerant is stringently governed by new laws, you will definitely want to leave this element to your expert
technician from Reliable Heating and Air.
While the mechanical nature of such maintenance is best left in the hands of a professional, there are some measures you can take to benefit your system. You should change filters in a timely manner, trim any vegetation around the unit, and check to see that supply air outlets are open.
With your attention to these details and a professional service by Reliable Heating and Air, your unit will run efficiently for years to come. Contact us today at 770 594-9969 if you are in need of service.
