Having your HVAC coils cleaned regularly in a year can have a positive effect on the quality of air in your house. Most people seem to not believe in having a professional come and clean the coils, but it is essential to ensure that the cleaning is done by an expert to avoid damage on your system as well as to make sure that the coils are appropriately cleaned. Most specialists advice that you have your HVAC professionally cleaned and maintained at least twice in a year. It is good to have even more cleanings for the condenser coils. Regular maintenance will not only ensure that you have quality air but also promote your system’s efficiency.

Impact of dirty coils on your HVAC system

Having dirty coils can have a direct impact on your energy since the efficiency is affected by cleanliness. Dirty coils will make your system run for extended periods of time to achieve suitable temperature levels. Thus the longer the system operates, the more energy is spent consequently hiking your electricity consumption. The longevity of your system is also affected by dirty coils. Due to the increased running of the system, it becomes more vulnerable to breaking down and therefore continually needing repairs. Eventually, the system will wear out faster compared to a system that is regularly cleaned and maintained professionally
