Maintenance Tips

• Regular Filter Maintenance: Clean or replace the air filters every 1-3 months. Clogged filters can restrict airflow, making the unit work harder and reducing its efficiency. A clean filter ensures optimal airflow and air quality.

• Inspect the Coils: Check the evaporator and condenser coils annually. Dust and debris can accumulate on the coils, reducing their effectiveness. Use a soft brush or vacuum to clean them gently.

• Check for Refrigerant Leaks: If the unit is not cooling or heating effectively, it might have a refrigerant leak. Have a professional technician check the refrigerant levels and repair any leaks.

• Examine the Drainage System: Ensure the condensate drain is not clogged. Blockages can lead to water pooling around the unit, causing water damage or mold. Clear the drain regularly to prevent these issues.

• Test the Heating Element: If the heating system isn’t functioning properly, inspect the electric heating elements. A malfunctioning heating element may need to be replaced to restore proper heat.

• Check Electrical Components: Regularly check the electrical connections for signs of wear or damage. Loose or frayed wires should be repaired by a licensed technician to ensure the system operates safely.

• Clean the Fan Blades: Dirty fan blades can hinder airflow and reduce efficiency. Wipe them down periodically to ensure the unit runs smoothly and distributes air evenly.

• Inspect the Thermostat: Verify that the thermostat is working properly. If the temperature is inconsistent, recalibrate or replace the thermostat.

• Maintain Proper Ventilation: Ensure that the unit’s vents are not obstructed by furniture or other objects. Clear space around the unit to allow for efficient airflow and heat transfer.

• Off-Season Storage: If the unit is not being used for an extended period (e.g., during the summer), turn it off, clean the filters and coils, and cover it to protect it from dust and dirt buildup.
