1. If Your AC Doesn’t Cool

    In spite of keeping the AC on for hours at a temperate of 18°C if there’s no cooling or the AC is slightly warm, there’s definitely something to worry about. It’s possible that the compressor has failed.

    This usually happens when you either don’t switch on the AC regularly or if you don’t get a maintenance check done twice a year.

    2. If There is an Unusual Spike in Your Electricity Bills

    Your electricity bills have been on the rise for the last few months and you have no idea why? The reason is definitely your air conditioner.

    A huge spike in your electricity bill is a good enough hint that your AC is failing.

    It’s important to get it checked when it’s more than a year old. Get the filter replaced and coils cleaned, when the air conditioner starts slowing down.

    3. If the AC is Making a Buzzing Sound

    Some old air conditioners do make a strange buzzing sound every time you switch it on.

    But if it’s too loud, then it’s time to get it checked. The strange sound simply means that your compressor may not be working properly or that the electrical voltage flowing through your outdoor air conditioner is not at its correct amperage.

    Maintenance Plan for your AC

    4. If There is Leakage

    On switching on the AC, if it consistently throws out odor and if you find a puddle of water underneath the AC’s condenser unit, it clearly means that there’s an issue with the unit and that it needs urgent repair. So do not ignore it, thinking it’s normal.

    5. If the AC is Too Old

    The life span of any air conditioner is over 10 years. If your AC is older and requires major repairs, it is bound to be less efficient. We wouldn’t recommend spending anymore on getting it fixed, as it will only keep showing signs of malfunction post 10 years.
    Large appliances like air conditioners, TV, Fridge, etc can literally burn a hole in your pocket if there are any last-minute repairs needed.
    Instead, it’s best to buy the Onsitego Annual Maintenance Contract (AMC) plan for your appliance to keep it maintained and functioning efficiently. With Onsite Comprehensive AMC, you can get up to two years of repair and maintenance support, including two preventive maintenance services a year, unlimited repairs (including the cost of labor, service, and transport), free gas charging (if required), and the cost of spare parts. If anything goes wrong, you can be assured of quality service.
