How often should you service your aircon | Aircon Servicing Singapore

How often should you service your aircon? Well, you might think that servicing your aircon at least once or twice a year is enough. And that’s true to an extent! Aircon quality is being improved and manufacturers are finding ways to make the aircon more durable and quiet.
However, it also depends on the brand and age of your aircon. In addition, the following ‘Singapore-related factors’ might further affect the amount of aircon servicing required.

Special Circumstances in Singapore | Aircon Servicing Singapore
1) Singapore is really really hot. Many Singaporeans keep their aircon running for really long times or even 24/7 because of the incredible heatwaves we get (or for those who own pets with thick winter coats), you should get your aircon serviced more often. A good estimation would be once every 3-4 months.Why? Because running your aircon for such long hours can actually decrease the lifespan of your aircon, allowing damages to occur more frequently. If something goes wrong, it will be very costly to keep replacing parts. So it’s best to get frequent maintenance servicing from a good aircon servicing Singapore company to keep overall costs down.

2) Singapore’s homes are built very close to pollutionSingapore is a tiny island with limited space. The government builds everything close to each other so we have to put up with construction works, roads and buildings right next to our flats. This ease of access for transport means sacrificing a little bit of our aircon’s health. Dirt, grime, and smoke can accumulate in your aircon system and cause malfunction.

How to service an air conditioner yourself?
Having an aircon servicing Singapore company service your aircon is a must sometimes. The only problem is, sometimes Singaporeans are reluctant to spend the money or go through the hassle of setting up an appointment. And hey! We at Ninja Cool totally get you.

Here are some simple steps on how you can service your aircon yourself.
1) Cleaning the filter is one of the easiest ways to service an air conditioner. Open the lid and locate the aircon filters. If there is a ton of dust and dirt, use a vacuum, then take out the filters before running them through water. If it’s for routine cleaning and there’s not a lot of dust and dirt, you can just hose down the filters with water (mild soapy water is fine too). Some air-cons come with an auto-cleaning function, so use it if you have it!
2) You can also buy new filters to replace your old filters. Check your aircon’s instruction manual to see the type of aircon filter you need!
3) Clear debris and leaves outside your outdoor central air unit.

Congratulations! You have successfully cleaned the aircon. Turn on the unit and observe if it’s cooling your space, if it’s quiet, and has no odour. If so, you did it!
