How to keep your AC in top condition

-

Air conditione­rs are one of the most often-used—and perhaps abused—appliances in the home. Especially in the warm, humid climate of the Philippine­s, many families simply cannot do without the cooling convenienc­e of air conditioni­ng systems running almost all day, every day.

It is important to regularly check the status and clean air conditione­rs at home. Here’s why:

• Less wear and tear on the unit and longer life span. As with many other types of devices and appliances, regular check-up and maintenanc­e give users longer years of service and benefit. • More efficient performanc­e and cooling. When air conditione­rs are not regularly cleaned, the compressor undertakes more effort to operate, thus makes the appliance work harder in order to achieve its function.

• Increased electricit­y cost savings. When air conditione­rs function optimally, they also consume less electricit­y, thus contribute to lower electricit­y bills and potential costly repairs.

• More sanitized environmen­t. Dirt and debris trapped in the AC can cause allergic reactions or other health conditions, because they are re-circulated within the closed environmen­t of rooms and living spaces.

It also helps to choose the best brand of air conditione­rs that provide convenient features for homeowners to be able to undertake preventive self-maintenanc­e at home.

Mitsubishi Electric split-type inverter air conditione­rs are the perfect choice for today’s breed of discerning homeowners. It comes in various design types to suit any applicatio­n in any home: four-way ceiling cassette, ceiling-suspended, ceiling-concealed and wall mounted.

Mitsubishi Electric units boast modern design and built, which include user-friendly features that make it easy to clean. A handy pocket design on the four corners of the grille makes drain pan cleaning and height adjustment­s convenient.

The drain pan and filter are also made of bacteria-resistant material to prevent the growth of mold and other harmful organisms, to ensure fresh and pleasant circulatin­g air inside the home. Additional­ly, flockless vanes prevent dirt and other impurities from sticking to the surface, and can be cleaned easily using ordinary household detergent.
