6. Changing the Filter
If you don’t already do this; make it a habit. The filter for your AC should be cleaned bi-weekly and replaced every 1-3 months. Cleaning and changing the filter ensures that you’re maintaining a quality air flow while keeping your AC dust-free.
5. Vents
These are located on front of your AC and should be cleaned thoroughly to remove any dirt or any other hindrance that might be present there and reducing your AC’s capacity.
4. Condenser Coil
Use a vacuum to clean this coil thoroughly which will result in improvement in your AC’s performance. You can alternatively make use of an old toothbrush to clean the dirt from the coils.
3. Freon Levels
Ideally speaking, your AC should not be consuming any Freon coolant but if that is not the case, you need to be aware that it implies something is wrong with your AC and it is advised to tackle the problem right away instead of delaying it.
2. Electricity
Make sure that the fuse and safety switch all are in working conditions before you start using your AC.
