One shouldn’t underestimate the role of evaporator coil and condenser coil, that both are a part of any split system. Instead, Las Vegas AC owners should keep in mind that over months and years of operation, these components are prone to collect dust and dirt.
If the filter isn’t clean or replaced, dust and other particles accumulate in the evaporator coil even faster. And just imagine what happens to the outdoor condenser coil that is exposed to leaves, animal hair, pollen, and dirt!
What happens if you don't clean air conditioning coils regularly?
The condenser and evaporator coils take part in absorbing heat and cooling the air.
You might be surprised at how much dust and dirt can accumulate on the coils. If AC coils are covered with dirt and don’t get regular cleaning, it could lead to a number of negative consequences.
- The evaporator and the condenser coils won’t be able to cool the air effectively. As debris builds up on the coils, the air conditioner will have to work harder to maintain the proper temperature, which will make it less efficient.
- The compressor will run continuously to cool your home that may result in a mild or serious AC breakdown and possible expensive repairs.
- The accumulated dirt might start coming inside your home, negatively affecting indoor air quality.
- Dense layers of dirt on the coils can also be the reason for higher energy bills.
- Lack of regular AC coil cleaning can shorten the lifespan of your air cooling system and speed up its replacement.
