Daily Aircond Maintenance Tips at Home

  • Clean the air filter every 2 weeks – dust buildup can block airflow.

  • Keep doors and windows closed while using – to maintain temperature.

  • Use a timer or thermostat – to avoid energy waste.

  • Do not place objects blocking the indoor or outdoor unit.

  • Use “eco” mode or set temperature between 24–26°C.

Bonus Tip: Avoid turning the aircond on and off too frequently in a short time.


Signs Your Aircond Needs Servicing

Watch out for these signs that your aircond needs immediate attention:

  • Air isn’t cool even at low temperature

  • Unpleasant smell coming from the unit

  • Unusual loud noises

  • Water leaking from indoor unit

  • Sudden spike in electricity bills

Energy-Saving Tips When Using Aircond

Want to reduce electricity bills but keep your home cool? Try these methods:

  • Use thick curtains or tinted windows to reduce heat entry.

  • Ensure outdoor unit is not directly exposed to sunlight.

  • Clean the fan and fins of the outdoor unit.

  • Use ceiling fans together with aircond for more even cooling.

  • Avoid setting temperatures too low (excessive cooling uses more energy).


Difference Between Normal Service and Chemical Service

🧪 Many people confuse these two types of servicing. Let’s differentiate:

Normal Service:

  • Clean and vacuum filters

  • Check gas pressure

  • Clean outer surfaces

  • Suitable for regular maintenance


Chemical Service:

  • Use chemicals to clean evaporator and condenser

  • Removes mold, slime, and bad odors

  • Ideal for very dirty units or those not serviced for a long time

Chemical servicing usually costs more, but is worth it if your unit hasn’t been serviced in a while.

💡 Did you know? Dust buildup in airconds can increase risks of allergies, asthma, and respiratory infections—especially among children and the elderly.
