With our country joining the race of development, the air conditioners are becoming the need of every house hold. This assembly consists of different parts, the most important of all is said to the air condition filter. This helps in keeping the air conditioner clean from inside of the assembly.
As is the case with any other gadget, these filters need timely and regular care and upkeep. Since these are prone to going bad with the use, the cost of the air conditioner goes high if we keep filters changing. So we have a solution to this problem.
Before we proceed for any adjustments, repairs etc., make sure that the power supply to the air conditioner is cut off. Then the location of the ventilation duct, where the filters are fitted be traced. These are either located on the wall or the ceiling of the unit.
Just take out the hatch by opening of two screws on two latches on the top of the hatch where air filter is placed. Carefully pull out the filter from the duct, if it is placed on the ceiling. Filters placed on walls need not to be taken out.
The filter must be thoroughly cleaned with the help of a vacuum cleaner. This is done by running the filter on the hose of the vacuum cleaner. Having cleaned the filter in this fashion, we notice the amount of dust that was deposited on it. The very look of the filter has changed from a dusty grey to a bluish and little translucent.
After having cleaned the filter, it must be ensured the there is no dirt or the dust remaining on it. We should place the filter back at its place and screw the latches and the hatch properly.
If you neglect to regularly maintain your air conditioning filters, you probably realize at some point, your air conditioners takes a longer time to cool and seem to consume more power when you check the electricity bills.
If timely cleaning of the device is ignored somehow, the compressor of the appliance may go off completely. Also, its replacement may cost you heavily.
