Rules, tips, recommendations for using the air conditioner
Today, household air conditioning has become such a familiar appliance that many perceive it as ordinary household appliances, such as a TV, refrigerator, telephone, and so on. But actually it is not.
Unlike the listed equipment, the air conditioner is a complex device that requires special handling, maintenance and regular diagnostics. Of course, equipment that does not break has not yet been invented. And at some point, each of us may be faced with the fact that the air conditioner will not turn on or will work poorly, work incorrectly, or even show no signs of life at all.
" Why doesn't the air conditioner turn on ?" and " What should I do if the air conditioner does not turn on ?" - two main issues when the equipment fails.
Reasons why the air conditioner does not turn on - examples, tips
In fact, there are many reasons why a split system can fail. And before you buy an air conditioner or rather before installing it, we recommend that you read this article.
Of course, it will not make your air conditioner not breaking, but it will help to avoid many breakdowns and extend the life of the climate system.
The first and one of the main reasons for the breakdown of the air conditioner is unprofessional installation.
Of course, there are many different reasons why a home air conditioner can fail. But more often it is the wrong / poor-quality installation. This can affect a lot, the air conditioning compressor does not start or the external unit does not turn on , in general.
Usually, in order to save money, users install the split system on their own, without using any special skills, equipment, or tools. Consequently, equipment quickly breaks down, which entails repair, or even a complete replacement of the air conditioner.
That is why we advise you to contact professionals during installation. This will not only extend the life of the air conditioner, but also save money on future repairs.
Incorrect selection of air conditioner - the ratio of power and area of the room
This situation occurs no less than the previous one. And the reason is the same - savings. Trying to save on the power of the split system and cool a large area of the room with an insufficiently powerful air conditioner, the equipment is worn out, consuming a lot of electricity and will most likely require repair.
Miser pays twice!
Clogged filters and parts of the indoor unit
The indoor unit of the split system, when cooling or heating, passes through itself a huge volume of air, and with it dust, airborne dirt, and so on. All this, of course, remains both on the filters and on the details of the indoor unit. Which over time affects the efficiency of the device itself.
Not to mention the negative impact on the person himself. This problem has caused the "death" of more than one million air conditioners.
And in order to avoid such a fate, you should carefully read the instructions for using your air conditioner before use and regularly diagnose and clean the equipment.
Freon leakage and refueling
Freon leakage is another reason why the air conditioner can break down. In general, this is a standard occurrence, since refrigerant leakage is approximately 5-7% per year. This is part of the normal operation of the air conditioner. And in order to prevent breakdowns, it is necessary, just to fill the split system with freon once every 1-2 years.
Using the air conditioner in sub-zero temperatures - in winter
Each air conditioner has a threshold t ° C at which it can work. It may vary depending on the model. Air conditioners of non-inverter type can operate up to -7°С, and inverter type can operate up to -15°С.
Accordingly, it is forbidden to use the split system outside the temperature set by the manufacturer. Otherwise, at some point the fan of the external unit will not turn on or the compressor will break down altogether.
In conclusion, we want to note the last, rarer item - children
Yes, this is not a mistake. Breakdowns often occur due to the fact that the remote control falls into the hands of children. But some manufacturers have thought it through and installed a special function that protects the air conditioner from unforeseen actions. But these air conditioners are more expensive. And we recommend that you simply keep the remote control out of the reach of children.
