- Regular maintenance: It is generally recommended to have your central air conditioner serviced at least once a year, preferably before the start of the cooling season (spring). Regular maintenance involves tasks such as checking the refrigerant level, inspecting and cleaning the components, calibrating the thermostat, and replacing or cleaning the air filter.
- Additional cleaning: Depending on the environment and usage, the air filter may need to be cleaned or replaced more frequently, especially if it gets clogged with dust and debris.
- Repairs: Additional service and repairs may be needed if specific components break down or there are signs of unusual issues such as leaks, strange noises, or inconsistent cooling. In case of problems, it is best to contact a qualified HVAC technician for inspection and necessary repairs.
