Do you drive your car until it breaks down and then fix it or do your have it serviced regularly? Air conditioners need regular servicing just like anything else. If you don't service your air conditioner regularly, you will find yourself uncomfortable, with a major repair cost. A basic service for a typical A/C system would involve cleaning the filters, checking the gas level and checking that the reversing valves are working properly. 



Without regular maintenance an air conditioner loses about 5% of it's original efficiency for each year of operation. The good news is that you can recover most of that lost efficiency through regular maintenance. Studies show that with regular overhauls/tune-ups, a unit will maintain up to 95% of it's original efficiency. This means that the cost an annual overhaul/tune-up service, is recovered very quickly in savings on your monthly electric bill (for example, 1 unit of 2.5 hp air-con with 10% savings in electricity usage, it will save you RM196.56 every monthly!) and avoided the unnecessary repair costs.

A large number of us would switch on the air conditioner while sleeping at night, it is extremely important that we breathe in fresh and healthy air at all times so that our bodies would not be harmed. We should always ensure that our homes have only good quality air and not polluted by germs and bacteria. An air conditioner system circulates the air around your room, if fungus and germs is breeding in the unit, then anyone who enters the room would be breathing in the viruses.



In summary, an un-serviced air conditioner means:



• Increased power consumption​

• Loss of cooling and heating capacity​

• Reduction in the life-span of your air conditioner​

• Increased chance of your air conditioner failing - at the worst possible time!​

• Increase possibility of air contamination and health issues
