1. CONDENSER COIL will be cleaned
|
VALUE TO YOU - Dirty condenser coils raise refrigerant
pressure higher than needed, increasing your electric bill.
|
|
2. EVAPORATOR COIL will be inspected as required.
|
VALUE TO YOU - Evaporator coils become dirty because air
filters only collect a portion of the particles in the air. Even a small amount of dirt can decrease efficiency and increase
operating costs. This is also a major cause of compressor failure. Customer should replace properly sized air filter every
month.
|
|
3. BLOWER COMPONENTS will be cleaned and adjusted.
|
VALUE TO YOU - Dirty blower wheels reduce air flow, causing
longer operating time and increased cost. This problem can lead to lost comfort and compressor failure.
|
|
4. REFRIGERANT CHARGE checked by superheat/subcooling method.
|
VALUE TO YOU - A low or high refrigerant charge can easily
go unnoticed and increase operating costs. An improper charge can cause compressor shut down.
|
|
5. AIR FILTER will be replaced if supplied by customer.
|
VALUE TO YOU - A restricted air filter can cause your air
conditioning unit to waste energy and shorten the compressor's life.
|
|
6. LUBRICATION of motors and bearings.
|
VALUE TO YOU - Improper lubricated rotating equipment will
eventually fail.
|
|
7. THERMOSTAT will be checked and calibration will be adjusted.
|
VALUE TO YOU - Improperly calibrated thermostats allow
the unit to run longer than necessary. Every degree your air conditioning operates below 78 degrees can add 5 to 8% to the
cost of cooling.
|
|
8. CONTROLS AND SAFETIES will be inspected and tested.
|
VALUE TO YOU - Controls and safeties that do not function
properly can increase operation cost and cause other components to fail.
|
|
9. MOTORS will be cleaned and inspected.
|
VALUE TO YOU - Dirty motors are less efficient and will
fail sooner.
|
|
10. CAPACITORS will be tested
|
VALUE TO YOU - Bad capacitors can lead to compressor and
motor failure.
|
|
11. CONDENSATE DRAIN will be cleaned and treated.
|
VALUE TO YOU - Algae can plug a condensate drain which
can cause expensive water damage.
|
|
12. RELAYS AND CONTACTORS will be inspected.
|
VALUE TO YOU - Worn contacts and loose wire connections
can lead to a motor or compressor failure.
|
|
13. UNIT DISCONNECT will be inspected.
|
VALUE TO YOU - A worn or over heated disconnect blows fuses
and is dangerous.
|
|
14. UNIT WIRING will be inspected and electrical connections tightened.
|
VALUE TO YOU - Loose connections can lead to a motor or
compressor failure.
|
|
15. TEMPERATURES AND PRESSURES will be adjusted and recorded.
|
VALUE TO YOU - An accurate record of your equipment's
vital data can indicate potential problems, which can be eliminated. A record will be kept with the unit which may reduce
emergency service time.
|
| |
|
16. DEFROST TIMER will be checked
|
VALUE TO YOU - A defrost timer that is not working properly
can cause a loss of heat and can shorten the compressor's life.
|
|
17. REVERSING VALVE will be operationally checked.
|
VALUE TO YOU - A reversing valve that is not operating
properly can waste energy and cause a loss of heat.
|
|
18. AUXILIARY HEAT STRIPS will be checked.
|
VALUE TO YOU - Heat strips that are not operating properly
can cause a loss of heat or increase electric cost higher than necessary.
