The spring air has finally arrived and if you haven’t already switched your commercial HVAC from heating to cooling, you will be soon. As the business owner, it is in your best interest to know some simple ways that can help reduce the potential for repair with your commercial AC system in Falcon, CO. Here are some tips from our commercial AC experts:
Don’t DIY
Many business owners are pretty handy or have someone on staff who is, but unless you or that person are trained commercial air conditioning experts, it’s best to always call a specialist for help. Commercial air conditioning systems are large and complex, and attempting to make repairs on your own when you don’t have the necessary knowledge can lead to more problems and potential safety issues for you and your system.
Don’t Ignore Strange Sounds
Your commercial AC will make some basic operational noises, but anything other than these noises should be considered a reason to call for an expert. Sounds like banging, buzzing, screeching and clunking are typically indicative of a problem, so it’s best to have an expert look at your system as soon possible.
Don’t Miss Annual Maintenance
Annual maintenance for your commercial air conditioning is a full tune-up of the system. Maintenance helps increase energy efficiency, improve comfort, extend the life of the system and prevents repair. It’s estimated that for each year your system isn’t scheduled for maintenance it loses 5% of its overall efficiency – something you’ll start to see in your business’s energy bills.
Don’t Let the System Run with a Known Problem
Problems don’t work themselves out, and once a problem has developed with your commercial AC, it will likely become worse over time. If you are aware of an existing problem with your AC, try to fix it as soon as possible to avoid further cost to your system.
There is no way to guarantee that your commercial air conditioning system will never need repair, but taking these simple steps can help you reduce and/or avoid problems.
