Your AC Unit Has to Work Harder

The warmer it is outside, the harder your AC unit works to keep your home cool. While the average home in the United States runs their AC units for 3-4 months a year, Arizonians will run their units for 9 months or more in more extreme temperatures than nearly anywhere else! Especially in the Phoenix area where urbanization led to higher average summer temperatures, it’s critical for you to have regular maintenance to extend the life of your unit for as long as possible.

Humidity Plus High Temperatures Can Cause Problems

Most people think about Arizona heat as dry heat, but did you know you can still experience significant levels of humidity in the Phoenix area during monsoon season? Desert storms have the tendency to come and go very quickly, shocking your AC unit with the changes between dry heat and humid heat as it works to properly maintain humidity levels in your home. 

Excessive Heat Can Burn Important Lubricating Oils

If your unit is not cleaned and maintained throughout the year, you could run into serious problems in the Arizona heat. Dirty condenser coils and extreme heat are a recipe for disaster because high temperatures can cause lubricating oils to burn, turning the oil into acid that can corrode and ruin your compressor. With excessive temperatures lasting so long in Arizona, it’s critical to have one of our technicians come to clean and inspect your unit. 

When considering AC maintenance, you may be wondering if it’s actually necessary to hire a professional or if you can maintain the unit yourself. For most AC maintenance, you’ll want to hire a professional who can take your unit apart for a deep clean and inspection. Professionals will be the only ones who can identify major mechanical problems or refrigerant issues. However, there are a few DIY steps you can take in between regular tune-ups.

1. Replace the Air Filter

Replacing the air filter is part of professional tune-ups, but you can also easily change the filter yourself if needed. Typically, you will only need to replace it twice a year, but you may need additional replacements with particularly dry and dusty weather or if you’re experiencing significant smoke from wildfires (which is becoming increasingly common in the West).

2. Clean the Outside Fins

The outside covering of your AC unit is constructed with slots called fins that allow airflow while protecting the inner machinery of your unit. Simply take a soft cloth and mild cleaner to remove dust and dirt.

3. Remove Debris or Clutter

Leaves, small branches, grass clippings, and even trash could get caught in the fins of your unit. Simply remove this debris when you see it to help keep your unit clean between tune-ups.
