Metropolitan Air Conditioning Service Reviews

Why Regular Servicing of Your Air Conditioner is Important

Annual servicing is so important to preserving the year round heating and cooling functions of your air conditioner, but is often neglected. An air con service from a qualified technician helps to identify failing parts before they become a major and more costly problem. By skipping AC unit maintenance, you run the risk of encountering repair issues you never bargained for.

Reverse cycle air con systems, especially split systems, benefit from a seasonal service call, while your ducted or evaporative cooling will love a spring clean ahead of a busy summer.

That gas heater you had installed years ago? It might be releasing carbon monoxide, a colourless, odourless and potentially lethal gas, and you don't even know it. Leave this problem too long, and this problem might go beyond repair and could require you to install a whole new system rather than a simple repair.

The Importance of Cleaning Filters in Air Conditioners

What about the air filters on air conditioning systems? When was the last time they were checked over and cleaned? These are responsible for filtering the air used in air conditioners and removing airborne contaminants which can make allergy sufferers and asthmatics sick.

A build-up of these contaminants on the filter means it won't filter the air as effectively and will impact your home's air quality. This can also make your system work harder, meaning parts wear out faster and require repairs.

Air conditioner maintenance can go a long way in helping to prevent these problems. A qualified air conditioning technician will know what to look out for during a service to ensure you have heating and cooling when you need it.

Air Conditioner Service FAQ

We answer all your essential air conditioning service questions here!

What does an air conditioner service include?

A technician will test the thermostat, detect potential problems and faults, remove debris, carbon monoxide test, chemically clean the unit, top up refrigerant levels and more as required, to ensure your system works at peak performance. This could also help extend the lifespan of your air conditioner and provide cleaner air. You should clean the filters every 3 months, although an air conditioning technician should perform the actual service once per year before peak use.

How often should I get an air conditioner service?

Once a year is an ideal time frame. Preferably in the air cons downtime before the summer or winter. Because if your air con doesn’t work as it should, then what’s the point in using it?

What happens if an air conditioner is not serviced?

Dirt and dust will build up in your air conditioning unit, blocking the filters and limiting performance. This can potentially reduce the lifespan of an air conditioner, resulting in the premature need for repairs or even the purchase of a new system. There are also health benefits to consider. A build-up of allergens and contaminants affects the airflow quality, which in turn can affect asthmatics and anyone with allergies. And if refrigerant gases leak, your system could continue to blow air but may lose the ability to heat and cool.
