Maintenance Tips

• Clean or Replace Air Filters – Check and clean the air filters every 1-3 months to prevent dust buildup. A clogged filter restricts airflow, reducing efficiency and air quality. If filters are damaged or excessively dirty, replace them.

• Inspect and Clean the Coils – The evaporator and condenser coils should be inspected and cleaned annually to remove dirt and debris. Dirty coils can cause the system to overheat and reduce performance, leading to higher energy consumption.

• Clear the Drain Line – Ensure the condensate drain line is free from obstructions. A clogged drain can cause water damage or mold growth. Clean the line periodically to ensure proper drainage.

• Check Refrigerant Levels – Low refrigerant can lead to poor cooling performance. If the unit is not cooling or heating properly, have a technician inspect the refrigerant levels and recharge if necessary.

• Inspect the Fan Blades – Examine the fan blades for dirt buildup or damage. Clean the blades as needed to ensure smooth operation and prevent overworking the motor.

• Verify Thermostat Accuracy – Test the thermostat to ensure it maintains the desired temperature. If the system cycles too often or not enough, recalibrate the thermostat or contact a technician to check for malfunctions.

• Inspect the Heating Element – If the unit includes an electric heating function, inspect the heating element periodically for wear or damage. A malfunctioning element can affect the heating performance of the PTAC unit.

• Clean the Exterior – Regularly wipe down the exterior of the unit to keep it free from dust and dirt. This will not only improve the appearance of the unit but also help maintain proper ventilation.

• Check for Unusual Sounds – Listen for any unusual noises such as buzzing or rattling. These may indicate issues with the fan, motor, or other internal components. If any unusual sounds persist, have the unit inspected.

• Power Off During Extended Downtime – If you’re not going to use the PTAC for a long period (e.g., during off-seasons), turn it off to save energy and prevent wear.
