air conditioning system helps us to keep temperature under control.let's go through it.!
be sure to keep the outdoor condenser clean. this means all sides should have nothing clinging to them. if you do see dirt,leaves,grass clippings, cottonwood, use a water hose with spray nozzle to rinse the sides off starting at the top and working your way down. turn off the power first.
during the summer,if you see frost on the outdoor or indoor pipes, your system is frozen and will not cool properly. the system must be thawed to solve this issue. the quickest way to thaw the system is to turn the ac off at the thermostat but turn the fan to on. it may still take 2 hours to thaw.
do not set your thermostat below 70 degree as it will not cool any faster and could freeze up the system causing more problems.
understand that there is generally a 20 degree difference between indoor air and outside temperatures.so when it is 92 degrees outside, you can expect to get your indoor temperature to 72 degree if desired. however, if it is 102 degrees outside, your air conditioner may struggle to meet 72 or run all the time trying to meet the demand
if you see water leaking from an outdoor pipe or pipe located above a bathtub, this means that your primary condensate drain has a problem and the water is travelling through the emergency drain system. this pipe is usually located in a conspicuous area so that you will easily see the water dripping and know that there is a problem. call for service.
