An air conditioner draws the room's air through its filters and over its coil dozens of times an hour. When it is clean, it cools and dries the air without adding anything to it. When it is neglected, it spreads whatever it has collected. That is why the unit's hygiene is at the heart of every visit we make.
What builds up in a neglected unit
Dust trapped in the filters, a greasy film on the coil in an open-plan kitchen, standing water in the condensate tray: the inside of a wall unit has everything mould and bacteria need to thrive. The first signs are often a musty smell when it starts, black specks on the air louvres, or more frequent sneezing among people with allergies. These symptoms do not go away on their own; they get worse from one season to the next.
Cleaning part by part
During a service, the technician removes and washes the filters, cleans and then disinfects the indoor coil with a suitable product, and treats the fan, the bladed drum that pushes air into the room and holds deposits you cannot see without dismantling it. They check and clean the condensate tray, then make sure the drain flows freely: standing water is the main cause of bad smells. The outdoor unit is cleaned too, so the system can exchange heat properly and does not strain unnecessarily.
Less humidity, fewer allergens
A clean unit dehumidifies better and captures more dust, pollen and pet hair. That makes a real difference in a child's bedroom, for someone with asthma, or in a practice that welcomes the public. The technician also shares good habits: let the fan run for a few minutes after switching off cooling to dry the coil, avoid setting the temperature too low, and dust the filters between visits. These simple steps make the cleaning last longer.
Photos so you can see the difference
Before and after cleaning, the technician photographs the coil, the fan and the tray. These images go into the digital maintenance log sent after the visit: you see the real condition of your unit without having to take our word for it. Year after year, they serve as a reference point as part of our active vigilance. To schedule a clean for your home or your business, head to the booking page.
