In an effort to make living more comfortable, many apartment and house owners install air conditioners. Such devices allow you to regulate the temperature inside the room, and also have additional functions. Like any other equipment, they can break down over time. And in such situations, you can’t do without specialists. To restore operation, sometimes it’s enough to clean the air conditioner. But, in some cases, craftsmen have to repair chillers.
What is a chiller?
The main purpose of the element is to control the air temperature. It is usually installed in large air conditioning units that operate in rooms with a large area. The operating conditions of such a device are quite complex and difficult, so regular maintenance of chillers is required for normal functioning.
Why is it necessary to periodically check and clean chillers?
The installation is a complex mechanism, the elements of which constantly interact with the external environment. As a result, some parts may completely fail. In order to detect malfunctions in a timely manner, regular inspection and maintenance are required. The service allows you to detect the following problems:
- clogging of heat exchangers;
- reducing the level of freon in the compressor;
- lack of oil (leads to premature wear of the entire installation);
- contamination of water filters;
- depressurization of pipelines, tanks and other parts;
- clogging of drainage systems.
Any malfunction from this list can not only complicate operation, but also lead to system failure.
