Keeping the components of your air conditioner condenser clean and changing air conditioner filters can help prevent most HVAC repair problems.

Most systems have a replaceable filter in the furnace or air handler cabinet. This filter is generally located inside the air-inlet side. Some systems also employ air filters in the return-air registers inside the house. These filters should be replaced twice a year, and also you should clean a reusable filter according to the manufacturer's directions.

It is also important to keep the outdoor condenser unit clean and free of debris. Before doing this, you must shut off all power to the unit, both at the main panel and at the disconnect box located near the condenser.

Remove or trim any weeds or bushes around the condenser that might restrict airflow through the unit.

Then use a screwdriver or nut driver to remove the access panels and the top of the unit. Removing the top is a little tricky, because the fan unit is often attached to it and you need to be careful not to stress the electrical wires connecting it.

Cleaning the blower's fan blades will keep your air conditioner operating efficiently and quietly. Use a rag to wipe them off and scoop up or vacuum any debris at the base of the equipment. Tighten the mounting bolts on the motor and lubricate any oil cups on the motor according to the manufacturer's directions.

The next step is to use a soft brush and a vacuum to clean the coils from the outside, and then from the inside of the unit. In most cases, there is dirt and debris caked in the recesses between the fins--and this can be very difficult to remove.

Routinely cleaning your A/C condenser will not only extend the life of your system but also save valuable dollars on your utility bills.
