Enhanced Energy Efficiency and Lower Electricity Bills:

• In Singapore’s humid climate, AC units work harder to cool and dehumidify the air. Over time, dust, dirt, and debris accumulate on filters, coils, and other components.
• This build-up restricts airflow and reduces the system’s ability to exchange heat efficiently, forcing the AC to consume more power to achieve the desired temperature.
• Regular servicing ensures that all parts are clean and functioning optimally, allowing the unit to operate efficiently and reducing energy consumption, which directly translates to lower electricity bills.

Improved Indoor Air Quality:

• AC units circulate air throughout a room, and if not maintained, they can become breeding grounds for dust, allergens, mold, bacteria, and other microorganisms.
• Singapore’s high humidity is particularly conducive to mold and mildew growth within the AC unit and ducts.
• Regular servicing includes cleaning and replacing filters, coils, and drainage systems, which effectively removes these contaminants. This leads to cleaner, fresher indoor air, reducing the risk of respiratory issues, allergies, and other health problems for occupants.

Extended Lifespan of the AC Unit:

• An AC unit is a significant investment. Like any mechanical appliance, it experiences wear and tear, especially with continuous use in a demanding climate.
• Lack of maintenance accelerates this wear, putting a strain on vital components like the compressor.
• Regular servicing allows technicians to identify and address minor issues before they escalate into major problems. This proactive approach prevents premature wear and tear, helps ¹ in replenishing refrigerant levels (if needed), and lubricates moving parts, significantly extending the overall lifespan of your air conditioner, often up to 15-20 years.
