R22 Refrigerant

R22 refrigerant is used considerably within any air conditioning system. R22 refrigerant has been used for many years, however it contributes to the depletion of the ozone layer. This has caused the government to put restrictions in place to phase out its use as more efficient and less damaging refrigerants have been introduced.

F Gas Regulations



F Gases (or Fluorinated Gases) contribute to global warming; now legislations have been put in place to ban the use of these gases in your refrigeration systems. This move was made by the government to reduce emissions of these gases into the atmosphere. This means, that as air conditioning maintenance and installation company; we are required to follow these main points in the new law:
·        Regular leakage checks and prevention
·        Refrigerant records
·        Equipment labelling

Maintaining Your Air Conditioner

An air conditioner's filters, coils, and fins require regular maintenance for the unit to function effectively and efficiently throughout its years of service. Neglecting necessary maintenance ensures a steady decline in air conditioning performance while energy use steadily increases.

AIR CONDITIONER FILTERS

The most important maintenance task that will ensure the efficiency of your air conditioner is to routinely replace or clean its filters. Clogged, dirty filters block normal airflow and reduce a system's efficiency significantly. With normal airflow obstructed, air that bypasses the filter may carry dirt directly into the evaporator coil and impair the coil's heat-absorbing capacity. Replacing a dirty, clogged filter with a clean one can lower your air conditioner's energy consumption by 5% to 15%.
For central air conditioners, filters are generally located somewhere along the return duct's length. Common filter locations are in walls, ceilings, furnaces, or in the air conditioner itself. Room air conditioners have a filter mounted in the grill that faces into the room.
Some types of filters are reusable; others must be replaced. They are available in a variety of types and efficiencies. Clean or replace your air conditioning system's filter or filters every month or two during the cooling season. Filters may need more frequent attention if the air conditioner is in constant use, is subjected to dusty conditions, or you have fur-bearing pets in the house.

AIR CONDITIONER COILS

The air conditioner's evaporator coil and condenser coil collect dirt over their months and years of service. A clean filter prevents the evaporator coil from soiling quickly. In time, however, the evaporator coil will still collect dirt. This dirt reduces airflow and insulates the coil, reducing its ability to absorb heat. To avoid this problem, check your evaporator coil every year and clean it as necessary.
Outdoor condenser coils can also become very dirty if the outdoor environment is dusty or if there is foliage nearby. You can easily see the condenser coil and notice if dirt is collecting on its fins.
You should minimize dirt and debris near the condenser unit. Your dryer vents, falling leaves, and lawn mower are all potential sources of dirt and debris. Cleaning the area around the coil, removing any debris, and trimming foliage back at least 2 feet (0.6 meters) allow for adequate airflow around the condenser.

COIL FINS

The aluminum fins on evaporator and condenser coils are easily bent and can block airflow through the coil. Air conditioning wholesalers sell a tool called a "fin comb" that will comb these fins back into nearly original condition.

CONDENSATE DRAINS

Occasionally pass a stiff wire through the unit's drain channels. Clogged drain channels prevent a unit from reducing humidity, and the resulting excess moisture may discolor walls or carpet.

WINDOW SEALS FOR ROOM AIR CONDITIONERS

At the start of each cooling season, inspect the seal between the air conditioner and the window frame to ensure it makes contact with the unit's metal case. Moisture can damage this seal, allowing cool air to escape from your house.

PREPARING FOR WINTER

In the winter, either cover your room air conditioner or remove and store it. Covering the outdoor unit of a central air conditioner will protect the unit from winter weather and debris.

HIRING A PROFESSIONAL

When your air conditioner needs more than regular maintenance, hire a professional service technician. A well-trained technician will find and fix problems in your air conditioning system.
The technician should:
  • Check for correct amount of refrigerant
  • Test for refrigerant leaks using a leak detector
  • Capture any refrigerant that must be evacuated from the system, instead of illegally releasing it to the atmosphere
  • Check for and seal duct leakage in central systems
  • Measure airflow through the evaporator coil
  • Verify the correct electric control sequence and make sure that the heating system and cooling system cannot operate simultaneously
  • Inspect electric terminals, clean and tighten connections, and apply a non-conductive coating if necessary
  • Oil motors and check belts for tightness and wear
  • Check the accuracy of the thermostat.

Heating and Cooling Company

Heat pumps are an integral part of air conditioning technology. Heat pumps transfer heat from one environment to another via its refrigerant.

Whilst in cooling mode, air conditioning units transfer the heat in an enclosed area to the outside air, resulting in a cooling of the area in question. Heat pumps, however, also allow this process to be reversed. Heat extracted from the outside is pumped indoors, allowing indoor environments to be heated as well as cooled using the same technology. Find out more our services as a heating and cooling company at our website.

Air Conditioning and Ventilation

Here at Air Control, we offer the same quality of design and installation for your air conditioning and ventilation requirements. Ventilation is defined as the amount of fresh air to be supplied to a space in order to meet the criteria associated with the use of that space.

The amount of ventilation necessary is determined by the required air change rate, which is determined by the use of the space, air quality and occupancy. Ventilation of retail premises, workplaces and public buildings is becoming more important as Local Authority regulations become more stringent.

How Air Conditioning Works?


Have you ever wondered how an air conditioning system works? Here is a brief description of how they help make hot weather bearable. Air conditioning systems use some form of refrigerant to cool indoor air and they take advantage of a remarkable physical law. This is called the 'Phase Conversion Law' and it is when a liquid converts to a gas it absorbs heat. Air conditioning systems exploit this feature of conversion by forcing special chemical compounds to evaporate and condense constantly in a closed system of coils. Find out more about how air conditioning systems work at http://home.howstuffworks.com/ac1.htm
