Air conditioning is a vital system, especially in areas with hot climates.

Choose a unit from a trusted brand known for quality manufacturing and availability of spare parts.

• Choosing the right equipment

  Choosing the right equipment

• High quality installations

  Outdoor unit installation: In a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight if possible, and mounted on a solid, level base.

Tighten connections: Ensure all connections are mechanically tight using appropriate torque tools to prevent leakage.

Quality and efficiency standards you should demand

Certified and Licensed Technician: Ensure that the technician or company is licensed and specialized.

Labor and Parts Warranty: You must obtain a written warranty on manufacturing and installation.

Correct Work Tools: The technician must use specialized tools (vacuum pump, pressure gauge), not basic tools.

Adhere to Manufacturer's Specifications: Follow the air conditioner's instruction manual carefully.

Second: Maintenance work (key to longevity and continued efficiency)

1. Regular Maintenance (recommended twice a year before peak seasons - summer and winter):

Cleaning the air filters: Clean or replace the indoor unit filters every two weeks to a month during continuous operation. Dirty filters are the main cause of decreased cooling efficiency and increased consumption.

Cleaning the coils:

Evaporator coil (indoor unit): Clean it to ensure efficient heat absorption.

Condenser coil (outdoor unit): Clean it periodically of dust and debris, as their accumulation hinders heat dissipation and places significant strain on the compressor.

Inspecting and cleaning the fans: Ensure that the indoor and outdoor unit fans rotate freely and without obstructions.

Checking the refrigerant (furnace) level: A specialized technician must check the pressure in the system to ensure there are no leaks and that the gas quantity is adjusted according to the manufacturer's specifications. Caution: Adding gas without addressing the root cause (the leak) is a temporary and potentially harmful solution.

Checking the drainage system: Ensure that the water drain pipe is clear and free of blockages that could cause water leakage.

Check electrical connections: Check connections, wires, and cables for damage or looseness.
