Air Conditioner Maintenance Done?

by | Air Conditioning Tips

Regular preventative maintenance can help improve the efficiency of your air conditioning unit and save money on your electricity bill.

Air conditioners regulate temperature and filter the air, so you can enjoy worry free clean, fresh air throughout the day. It can be easy to overlook the importance of your air conditioning unit until it stops working properly.

All air conditioners require preventative maintenance to keep them running smoothly and operating at the highest efficiency without premature breakdowns.

A dirty filter can interfere with the machine’s ability to circulate clean, filtered air throughout the room. As a result, the air conditioner can run longer each day or cause you to change the temperature setting because the room feels uncomfortable even though the unit is running.

A dirty condenser coil can cause the refrigerant compressor to run harder, which draws more amps from your electricity service and results in higher electricity bills.

Preventative maintenance can save a lot of money in repair costs by catching small problems before they become bigger, more expensive problems.

Clean your filters once a month using a vacuum cleaner. If they are really dirty, wash with a soft brush and warm soapy water. Leave them to dry before putting back.

At the start of each season, check outside unit is clear of debris.

What’s lurking inside your Air Conditioner?

by | Air Conditioning Tips

As soon as the temperature makes us uncomfortable, we reach for the air conditioner remote, but doing so could be harmful to more than just your wallet.

Old and unmaintained air conditioners have been shown as factors in many health conditions, including respiratory conditions and the spread of some diseases. Fortunately, you can do something about it.

You can clean the filters yourself once a month but make sure to have your unit professionally cleaned every 6 months to remove all contaminants, mould, pet dander & faeces, dead animals and bacteria.

Carefully pull the filter out and rinse it under running water. Use mild detergent and scrub with a soft-bristled brush to remove any additional dust or grime. When the clean filter is dry, put it back into the unit.

That is not enough however, as deep in the coils and at the back of the unit, mould, bacteria and all sorts of contaminants can build up and then be blown into the air you and your family breathe. This can cause fatigue, allergic reactions, asthma attacks, headaches, disease and illness.

And then there’s the outdoor unit…

Help, it’s Spring!

by | Air Conditioning Tips

Spring can be tough for people with asthma, particularly if they also have a pollen allergy.

Pollen is a potent allergen that, when inhaled, can inflame airways and cause asthma attacks. (Like cold-and-flu season, high pollen counts are associated with an increase in asthma-related hospital visits.)

The pollen season is a one-two punch. Trees begin to release pollen around September (depending on where you live), and just when you’re recovering from the tree pollen, grass pollen peaks in November and December.

And then summer heat waves are notorious for sending asthmatics, particularly asthmatic children in urban areas, to the emergency room.
So why do asthma and allergy symptoms seem to get worse with every change in the weather? Although it seems confusing, there are some annual trends, as well as reasons why asthma symptoms are worse at particular times of the year.

In truth, asthma symptoms can flare at any time of year due to well-known asthma triggers, such as pet dander, second-hand smoke, mould, airborne bacteria and exercise. But knowing the triggers that can vary by season, such as pollen, temperature, humidity, pollution and viruses can help people with asthma figure out if they should be stepping up their medication.

As with cold, dry air in the wintertime, exercising outdoors can make people with asthma especially vulnerable to asthma attacks. Fortunately, pollen concentrations are relatively predictable. Pollen counts are the highest between about 4 a.m. and 10 a.m. every day, so if you’re going to be exercising during the pollen season, you’re better off doing it later in the day.

To lessen the chance of irritants becoming airborne inside, it is important to properly maintain your air conditioner. By having it professionally cleaned every 6 months, you are ensuring that the build-up of contaminants on the coils and filters are removed.

How to Avoid an Air Conditioning Lawsuit

by | Air Conditioning Tips

Air conditioning that is not properly maintained can have deadly consequences, including lawsuits caused by microbial contamination.

Many business owners rely on air conditioners to maintain comfortable daily temperatures. Besides the comfort factor, temperature has a huge impact on productivity, energy levels and illness. Therefore, they see the cost of having air conditioning as a necessary one, but it can cost a lot more if not properly maintained.

Mould and bacterial growth inside air cons can dramatically reduce their operating efficiency, increase energy consumption and cause life threatening illnesses. This may well lead to lawsuits and loss of business.

Indoor air quality, Sick Building Syndrome and building related illnesses may be a thorn in the side of many building and business owners, however, when cases of microbial contamination occur in the air conditioning systems, they could become increasingly subject to claims by workers for health-related injuries.

This prediction, that Australia may become more litigious in this area, is based on three factors:

  • An increase in “sick building syndrome” litigation in the United States.
  • Changes to Australian law which make it easier for groups of people to mount class actions.
  • Australia’s move towards contingency fees – a system whereby lawyers essentially work for free but take a percentage of any damages awarded to their clients.

When these factors are combined, one might conclude that sick building syndrome and other building-related illnesses will become something that Australian workers will begin taking to court rather than just complaining about.

If this happens, employer and building owners will find themselves being regarded as “deep pocket” targets by people who claim that their indoor working environment is making them sick.

Don’t get caught out, get your air con units professionally cleaned and sanitised by HydroKleen. HydroKleen are the ONLY Air Conditioning Cleaning company exclusively approved by the National Asthma Council Australia’s Sensitive Choice Program.
