Well, it is so important to keep well the performance of the evaporator in order to make sure your central air conditioning keep working well. One of basic ideas is by cleaning it regularly. The following are simple guide on how to clean an evaporator (especially for an accessible evaporator)!
As well we know that evaporator is one of important parts of your central air conditioner. It is usually located inside of the home (indoor unit, above the furnace in the plenum). Basically it is a heat exchanger that has function to absorb the heat into the system. And it doesn’t actually absorb the heat, but just the cooled refrigerant fed absorbs the heat (the refrigerant from the bottom of the coils).
All properties that enter to the evaporator are usually converted into low pressure. And generally, it has function to absorb the heat, convert the refrigerant to vapor and responsible for superheat.
This simple evaporator cleaning guide is purposed for an accessible evaporator. Because for one that is not accessible (like if there is a sheet metal box that seal the plenum), you may need more mechanical skills to open it properly. Read the rest of this entry »
Perhaps you still don’t have any idea on how to cool your small room or your small apartment where usually there is no adequate space or no sufficient window for installing central air conditioner system or window air conditioning unit! Fortunately, there is now available a type of air cooling appliance to solve this problem, that is portable air conditioner. It is superior choice for spot cooling and also so helpful to make low your monthly energy bill. If we compare to central AC models, it is much more efficient. It is able to cool a space of the room more specifically. Therefore, you also can use it when you are alone in your living room where usually this room is larger. But if there are many people (more than three persons) then it is better to turn on your existing central AC system.
