Did you know Air Conditioning can do more than cool

Air Conditioning Doesnt Just Cool You Down Air conditioning offers more than just cooling during those hot summer months. Other functionalities (depending on your system) include Heating, Cleaning, Dehumidifying and ventilation. I am often asked, when carrying out an air conditioning maintenance inspection, “what else can my system do, other than cool?”. Firstly, let us briefly look at what air conditioning does: Air conditioning is the process of treating the temperature (through the exchange of heat), distribution, cleanness and humidity of the air. Cooling An air conditioning system will provide precise temperature control. You can always create the climate in which is most comfortable, with the required temperature. Not only does it create comfort, it makes you feel fresh and active even in the most extreme conditions. Heating Air conditioners can also offer heating as an option. This enables you to enjoy a constant temperature all year through, no matter what the temperature outside may be. Cleaning - Air purification? A well-maintained air conditioning system will produce clean, healthy air. All indoor air conditioning units are equipped with ‘filters’ that take dust, pollen, smoke etc from the air. The level of filtration can be increased according to the needs of the customer. This air filtration process is critical for persons with allergies. NOTE: The filters in the air conditioning units can remove the dust particles floating in the air. However, this is dependant on the level of filtration on offer from different air conditioning systems. Dehumidifying During cooling mode, an air conditioning system will dehumidify the air, thus creating an increased feeling of wellbeing. It is worth noting that at the correct humidity level, the growth of dust mites and mold is limited, which again has a positive effect on persons with allergies. It has been discovered that Human beings feel that 40 to 60 % humidity is a comfort level. Ventilating Ventilation can be integrated in the air conditioning system. It extracts the inside air and forces in new, conditioned air from outside. During the cooler seasons, when your air conditioning is not in use, the ventilation can work independently. It is worth noting that ventilation systems can also be installed without the air conditioner.

Air Conditioning Whats the point

Why Have Air Conditioning?A well maintained air conditioning unit enables you to create the right temperature and a comfortable humidity, helping you feel fresh and more active, resulting in many advantages both at home and in the workplace. One who feels comfortable is certainly more creative and productive during those hot summer months (or should we say weeks, given the recent summer!).The primary purpose of an air conditioning unit is to provide a cool and comfortable environment. However, depending on the type of model, an air conditioning unit will have various functions such as heating, dehumidifying or fan only. These alternative functionalities can be suited to those with asthma whereby the temperature can be set, when dehumidifying the unit will get rid of moisture in the air without dropping the room temperature.What is the effect on your health ?One of the most effective solutions to lower the concentration of air pollutants is ventilation, humidity control and filters. This is where air conditioning can offer a complete solution.A well maintained system will filter the air, adjust humidity and provide the optional integrated ventilation (thus requiring a less effective filter due to the nature of the process). Note: The efficiency of an air conditioning filter is measured in the percentage of arrestance of particles. The arrestance describes how well an air filter removes larger particles such as dirt, lint, hair, and dust.Houses and buildings are designed and constructed to reduce the energy required to heat and cool the house. Although in order to do this, ventilation has been restricted which means that humidity levels are maintained within the building by re-circulating the same air and pollutants. Therefore without good ventilation or an air conditioner system, dust, mold, smoke, viruses, bacteria, fungus, mildew and gasses circulate through the building.It is now apparent that more health conscious people are drawing their attention to indoor air quality. There are various health effects an individual may experience from indoor air pollutants soon after exposure or possibly even years later. However, a well maintained air conditioning system is able to prevent or reduce some of the health effects.It is worth noting that dust (previously mentioned), derives from the skin, hair, clothes or just comes off shoes when walking. The mildew, fungus and mold enters with the dust and the gasses can be caused by dyes, adhesives, paints, varnishes etc.Theres no getting away from it!What is the effect on personal performance?Studies have proved that there is a close correlation between performance of an individual and the temperature of his/her immediate surroundings. An environment without aircon that is too hot, too cold will not contribute to a higher working efficiency.What is the effect on indoor Equipment ? (something not always considered)Air conditioning does not only offer the comfort or a required temperature and clean, healthy air, but it is of great benefit to your indoor equipment. This is especially where the function of dehumidifying is considered. It has been discovered that the low humidity level can extend the lifetime of your equipment. In order for your air conditioning system to achieve this, a humidity level of 40-60 % is advised for a good conservation of indoor equipment.With all of the above in mind, it is understandable as to why a periodical maintenance check is essential. If you ensure your system is serviced (at least once per annum) by a reputable company offering a complete Preventative Breakdown Maintenance, you can be rest assured that your air conditioning will be operating at its optimum and save money.
