In Singapore, air conditioning is a necessity due to the hot and humid climate. There is nothing worse than when the aircon breaks down on a hot day. We offer residential and commercial aircon services in Singapore. Regular servicing of aircon is the best way to prevent sudden breakdowns.
When an aircon needs servicing, there are usually clear symptoms:
- Reduced Cooling: If your aircon is not reducing temperatures as it used to, chances are there was a hidden problem with the unit.
- Strange Noises: These sounds indicate a problem.
- Leaking Water: A water flow dripping from the unit means that drainage pipes are blocked.
- Unpleasant Smells: This musty odor suggests mold growth within the aircon.
Ignoring these symptoms and not servicing your aircon regularly comes with consequences:
Higher Electricity Bills
The presence of dirty air filters forces the cooling system to work harder so as to create enough pressure to push through an obstructed filter in order to cool down your house. This leads to the system taking up more time and using electricity in order to maintain the set temperature. In fact, units containing contaminated filters may require up to 15% more energy! By simply changing a dirty filter, you can reduce up to 15% of your monthly electricity bill cost. The savings accumulate over time.
Breakdowns
Without proactive maintenance, small issues become big problems. Lack of regular check-ups allows small leaks, loose belts, and dirt and debris accumulation to go undiscovered. In the long run, these small issues fail the entire system. Then, the air conditioning equipment fails you just when you need it most during a heat wave.
Now, you have no air conditioning in the summer heat and suffering. Quickly, items like parts and labor fees add up to repair costs. Even more frustrating is that the repair team may not be able to find replacement parts fast. In this case, you can go for days or even weeks without the air conditioning, which only makes the situation worse. The cost of reinstalling the entire AC unit is in the thousands. A little regular maintenance of your AC can go a long way in preventing premature replacement.
Regular aircon servicing provides important benefits:
Improved Efficiency
- Regular servicing of your air conditioning system makes it work more efficiently and effectively. Clean air filters allow air to pass smoothly throughout the system. Dirty and clogged filters cause the system to work harder in order to force air through a blocked filter, thereby consuming more energy. Cleaning or replacing a dirty filter can even increase airflow by up to 15%.
- Besides, periodic maintenance provides a way to clear out debris buildup and dust that accumulates on important components such as the condenser evaporator coils. When coils are covered with gunk, they cannot absorb heat efficiently. Professional cleaning restores them to sparkling clean condition so that heat transfer is optimal.
- Technicians will also lubricate moving parts, tighten connections, adjust belts, and verify the correct refrigerant charge.
- This complete maintenance includes the entire AC system and its operation at maximum efficiency. It was effectively maintained equipment required less electricity to achieve effective cooling.
Preventative Maintenance
- Routine maintenance aids in avoiding greater, more costly problems over time. Ninja Cool technicians inspect the internal parts of all your air conditioners during every service call.
- They look for leaks, corrosion, clogs, and other problems. They can easily detect minor problems before they develop into major repairs. For instance, a small leak in refrigerant spotted early can be repaired with minimal cost. On the other hand, if the leak is not identified on time, it may result in refrigerant loss and, eventually, compressor failure.
- Technicians also perform preventive walkarounds such as tightening loose connections, clearing drains, and sealing penetrations in addition to cleaning.
- These small procedures help to prevent leaks, drips, and breakdowns. Consider your aircon service as a visit to the doctor for a routine check-up. Preventative care keeps you healthy. Similarly, preventative maintenance helps catch issues early and allows you to continue running your air conditioning system efficiently year after year.
- By scheduled residential and commercial aircon maintenance by Ninja Cool, you are protected from unexpected breakdowns at the peak of summer. We ensure your comfort and productivity. Our technical staff can also locate problems that waste energy usage. Preventative servicing ensures maximum savings on your electricity bills.
Prolonged Lifespan
- Regular preventive maintenance significantly increases the life of your air conditioning system. Your technicians can keep your AC working as new every service appointment.
- Corrosive dirt, debris, and growth should be cleaned away to prevent degradation of components over time. Intensified connections, seal penetrations, refill refrigerant levels, and lubricating parts prevent the machine from wearing out. Pre-failure replacement of worn parts prevents damage to other elements.
- Technicians can also spot problems early and carry out repairs before minor glitches become full breakdowns. To illustrate, worn fan motors are changed before they overheat and melt. The avoidance of major breakdowns means that the AC unit does not require replacement before its intended lifespan.
- If well maintained, the life of an air conditioning system is 15-20 years or more. Failure to maintain this lifespan shortens considerably. Regular tune-ups and cleaning will ensure that your AC unit works at an efficient level for the maximum lifespan.
- When you choose to invest in preventive service from Ninja Cool, your system stays optimized and performs reliably until there is a necessity for replacement.
- You guarantee premature system failure, and you get the maximum value for your investment in air conditioning.
- Over time, a replacement will eventually be needed; it is then that you could switch to a more modern and energy-efficient system. Until then, proficient upkeep of your AC by Ninja Cool keeps it cool regardless of the season.
