A Clean Air Conditioner Cools Better and Saves Energy

Summer is in full swing and we have now been through our fist heat wave in the greater Twin Cities metro area. Unfortunately, this likely won’t be our last heat wave nor the hottest. A properly working and “well tuned” air conditioner is very important in Minnesota.

So, How Did Your Central Air Conditioning System Keep Up?

When both the humidity and the temps are high, that’s when your central air system gets put to the test. All it takes is for an air conditioner to be low on freon, dirty, froze-up, or malfunctioning in some other way and you quickly start to feel uncomfortable in your house.

 

As a professional heating and cooling contractor and also an air duct cleaning company, servicing the entire Minneapolis St. Paul area, we often are the first call homeowners make. When the temperatures start to climb and they discover that their air conditioner isn’t working the way it used to our phone starts to ring like crazy. Fortunately, we are prepared and jump into action as quickly as we can.

Are You Sure the Air Conditioner Needs Repair?

Maybe the air conditioner doesn’t need to be repaired after all. Oftentimes, the only problem is the outdoor condensor or the inside evaperator (a.k.a. a-coil) is just dirty and no repair is necessary. If that’s the case, we will clean everything up and be on our way in an hour or less. Cleaning the central air conditioning system and a good old fashioned duct cleaning will typically cost less than $100 unless your system is really dirty. In that case you might want us to use our rotary brush cleaning method and that takes a little longer.

Either way, cleaning your air conditioner and your duct work will cost you a lot less money than jsut letting it go and suffering through it. A dirty air conditioner works MUCH harder than a clean air conditioner. When the central air conditioner is working hard to keep up with the demand you have set on the thermostat you are wasting a lot of energy.

Schedule an Air Conditioner Cleaning Soon.

Rather than suffer and spend a lot of money on increased energy consumption, why not have you an air duct cleaning company come out, like CleanMyFurnace.com for example, :)  and do a complete air duct cleaning. And, if needed, we will clean your a-coil and your condensor. Air conditioning cleaning will generally pay for itself in energy savings, so why put it off?

If you would like to schedule either air conditioner cleaning, air duct cleaning or both, please give us a call at 612-412-1867. Our technicians are fast, efficient, friendly and knowledgeable.

Improve Indoor Air Quality with Regular Duct Cleaning in the Twin Cities

Dirty ductwork is a major source of indoor air pollution. Airborne contaminants like, dust, dirt and allergens are drawn into the air ducts, through the cold air return, every time the heating and cooling system kicks on. Over time, these contaminants build up inside the air ducts, creating a natural breeding ground for mold, bacteria, fungi and other microbes.

This is particularly true if you have a central air conditioning system like most homeowners do. The damp, cool, air produced by the evaporator, also known as the a-coil, is distributed throughout your air ducts. This creates a comfortable climate in your home, but mold spores and other organisms also thrive in those conditions.

Air Filtration Alone is not Enough

Dust particles drawn into the ductwork typically pass through fiberglass filters and infiltrate your HVAC (Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning) system, undermining the performance and energy efficiency of these systems. These particles that make it past the filter can lead to higher maintenance and repair costs, and shorter service life in the long run.

The EPA has this to Say:

According to the EPA, “a build-up of only 0.42″ of dirt on a heating or cooling coil can decrease efficiency by 21%”. Keep in mind a 21% decrease in energy consumption is huge considering homeowners are spending thousands of dollars to enhance their system with new energy savings devices and are excited about a savings of much less.

Furnace manufacturers all recommend an annual furnace cleaning, tune-up and inspection of your furnace. Based on what the EPA says, combined with furnace manufacturer recommendations, it might be time for you to have your furnace, a/c coil and air ducts cleaned.
