A household air conditioner is gradually turning into a natural household appliance in almost every apartment. A modern, quality air conditioner will be a reliable assistant for many years, if used correctly. There are not so many rules, and they are easy to remember the first time.
The main points of operation
The air conditioning unit does not ventilate the room. Using the air inside the room, it cools it down. Therefore, before using the air conditioner, experts recommend ventilating all rooms for 10-20 minutes by opening the windows. To other, no less important aspects, it is worth adding:
- The air conditioner works best with closed windows (after ventilation).
- Make sure that the temperature difference outside and in the system settings does not exceed 10 degrees.
- In order not to provoke a cold in the family, do not lower the temperature in the settings below + 18-20 degrees.
- The conditioner needs regular cleaning.
Important: the last point can be done independently, but it is better to invite a specialist. Since, in addition to cleaning the blower and filters, he always looks at the system as a whole. Timely notices hidden breakdowns.
Extending the life of the air conditioner
The main rule is to choose the right air conditioner for the actual dimensions of the room. Observe the recommended temperature range indicated by the manufacturer. Timely clean the system from dust and possible bacteria. It is pointless to turn on the air conditioner if there are open windows or doors in the room.
