Air Conditioning | The Benefits of Preventive Maintenance

Air Conditioning Preventive Maintenance

Air Conditioning Preventive Maintenance and its benefits…

Ideal for cooling indoors, industrial air conditioning equipment is very effective in industrial and corporate environments, as well as in places of leisure, aiming at health, ambient air conditioning and people's well-being.

Some good practices, however, are essential for the proper functioning of these equipment, understand…

Good habits

For starters, the first good practice starts with the simple act of closing doors and windows when using the air conditioning system. That simple!

If we keep openings in the rooms, temperature control will be compromised. The cold air that escapes the room, allows the entry of hot air without filtering, causing the loss of indoor air quality.

Meanwhile, the equipment will keep trying to acclimatize the environment, increasing energy consumption (remembering that the time your air conditioner remains on, will directly reflect on the electricity bill), and these unnecessary hours of operation will contribute to the reduction of the useful life. of your equipment.

 

Air conditioners need cleaning and maintenance for their proper functioning, and another good practice that contributes to increasing their useful life and guaranteeing performance is cleaning or replacing air filters at the correct time, that is, performing of preventive maintenance.

The main points to be observed in Air Conditioning Maintenance according to NBR 13.971 are:

Component cleaning:

  • Heat exchangers
  • Ventilators
  • Panels, cabinets and other components
  • air filters

Transmission system and moving parts:

  • straps
  • Couplings / Pulleys / Bearings

Higher power components, which must be constantly evaluated

  • Engines
  • Compressores
  • Resistances

Filter Change

The appropriate time for cleaning or changing the air filters varies according to the model and the frequency of use.

The function of filters in air conditioning systems is to stop impurities and ensure air quality and the health of people in conditioned environments.

In the process of preventive filter replacement, it is possible to identify in advance when there is an overload of contaminants in a filter, so it is time to change them or remove them for washing (in the case of washable filters).

But do you know when to perform preventive maintenance?

Preventive maintenance is maintenance that precedes corrective maintenance.

In addition to generating numerous benefits such as greater thermal comfort, increased equipment life, reduced electricity consumption, among others, inspections are carried out in order to identify defects, need for adjustments, change parts and change filters.

If properly performed, preventive maintenance fulfills the purpose of reducing the probability of equipment failure, and even space the time of corrective maintenance on them.

Carried out according to a previously established schedule, see the article PMOC and understand better.
