Your Malibu Air Conditioning Contractor
Because the two major components of the AC unit, the condenser and the evaporator, are sealed, a professional maintenance person must be called for most repairs and maintenance. It's recommended that to avoid the unit breaking down at an inopportune time that it is inspected once a year by an Malibu AC repairs professional.
Regular maintenance
There are several things that an individual can do throughout the year to keep the unit running efficiently and avoid costly AC repair. There are two main pieces that are accessible to the handyman to work on. The filter is an important factor to keeping the entire unit operating at its best. First, clean the filter regularly. When it becomes blocked, circulation is impaired and the air will not as cool as it should be.
Check it twice a month and when needed, run it under lukewarm water to clean it. Another good idea is to keep an eye on the coils. If frost forms on them, switch off the unit until the room heats up. If the frost remains, you may need to remove the front cover and clean the internal coils using a soft brush.
Troubleshooting
Before calling in the Malibu AC repair professional, take a good look at the location and position of the unit. A unit that does not have enough room behind it, for example there is a wall or other obstruction in the back, will not have sufficient air flow to do its job. Ideally, there will be about 3-4 feet behind the back of the unit. Also, a unit that is not resting in a level position, may cause water to pool under air conditioner.
