Mini-split systems are an efficient and versatile option for heating and cooling your home. However, to maintain their efficiency and extend their lifespan, regular maintenance is crucial. This blog will explore the importance of deep cleaning your mini-split system, detailing the process and how Skyway Heating and Air can assist you in this essential maintenance task.
Understanding Deep Cleaning
Deep cleaning a mini-split system involves more than just replacing air filters or cleaning the external surfaces. It requires a thorough cleaning of all internal components, which includes:
Air Filters: Beyond just replacing them, a deep clean includes removing debris from the filter housing.
Evaporator Coils: These are cleaned with specialized solutions to eliminate dust and grime, enhancing heat transfer and efficiency.
Blower Fan: Cleaning the fan blades and motor improves airflow and reduces energy consumption.
Condenser Coils: Typically located in the outdoor unit, these are cleaned with high-pressure water to remove accumulated dirt, ensuring optimal cooling performance.
Drain Line: A proper cleaning ensures the removal of mold and bacteria, preventing odors and potential health issues.
