Full Chemical Service

1. Initial Inspection: The technician begins by inspecting the air conditioning system to identify any visible issues or areas that need attention. This may include checking for leaks, loose connections, or damaged components.

2. Switch Off the Power: The power supply to the air conditioner is turned off to ensure safety during the cleaning process.

3. Removal of Filters and Covers: The technician removes the air filters, front covers, and other removable parts of the air conditioner to access the internal components.

4. Cleaning the Filters: The air filters are usually the first to be cleaned. They may be soaked in a cleaning solution to remove accumulated dust, dirt, and pollutants. Alternatively, some filters may be replaced if they are severely clogged or damaged.

5. Chemical Cleaning: Specialized cleaning chemicals are applied to the cooling coils, evaporator coils, and other internal components of the AC unit. These chemicals help dissolve and remove accumulated dirt, mold, and algae that can obstruct airflow and reduce cooling efficiency. The chemical cleaning process may involve brushing and rinsing to ensure thorough cleaning.

6. Condensate Drain Cleaning: The condensate drain, responsible for removing excess moisture from the AC unit, is also cleaned to prevent clogs and water leakage.

7. Cleaning and Disinfecting: In addition to removing dirt and debris, the chemicals used in the cleaning process often include disinfectants to eliminate mold, bacteria, and foul odors that can develop within the system.

8. Checking for Leaks: The technician may inspect the refrigerant lines and connections for any signs of refrigerant leaks. If any leaks are found, they may need to be repaired.

9. Reassembly: After the cleaning and inspection are complete, the technician reassembles the air conditioning unit, including replacing the filters and covers.

10. Functionality Test: The AC unit is turned back on, and its performance is tested to ensure that it is cooling effectively and operating smoothly.

11. Final Inspection: The technician performs a final visual inspection to confirm that all components are in place, and there are no issues with the system.
