One of the most important systems in your home can be the units you use for Heating and Cooling in San Marcos. Making sure these units are in good working condition can be very important especially before the hot days of summer or the cooler nights of winter. To ensure your unit is running at its best, you should have a professional come out to clean and inspect the system at least once a year.
Most technicians will begin my dealing with the blower on the system. This component is used by both the heating and cooling units. Because of this, it can become quite dirty and will need to be cleaned. The technician will first check the filter and replace it if it is dirty. The remainder of the unit will then be vacuumed using a heavy duty vacuum cleaner.
The motor on the unit should also be inspected to ensure it is connected to the power source properly. Wires should be in good condition and connections should be tight. Most motors do not require oil as they have sealed bearings, but if the motor does have a port for oil, then oil should be replenished. The fan and fan belt on the unit should be inspected as well. If either of these components show any sign of damage they will need to be replaced.
The burner will also need to be inspected to ensure it is burning correctly. If the flames are flickering or yellow in color the technician will need to disassemble the burner and clean it before it can be used.
The air conditioner has a separate unit, which is generally outside of the home. It contains the compressor and condenser. This unit will need to be cleaned. The housing for the unit should be cleared of debris. Once the housing is removed, the technician will need to clean the coils with water and coil cleaner. The fins should also be cleaned using a dry brush.
