Q:
Can I do my own chemical flushing
|
|
A:
As chemical flushing requires dismantling
of the fan coil or condenser, hiring a trained
technician is preferred. Also, it is better
to dismantle the fan coil than inserting
water tray to wash away the chemical as
the latter may lead to corrosion of the
fan coil if the chemical inside the fan
coil is not wash away thoroughly.

Every
air con has a cooling capacity number that
ranges from 5,000 to 18,000 Btus. The higher
the Btu value, the stronger the air con is.
You can get a rough gauge of the Btu required
for the room by multiplying the square footage
of the room (multiple length and width) by
65. For example, room size of 10 ft X 10 ft
= 100 sq ft X 65 = 6,500 Btu. In addition,
you should follow the guidelines below for
proper selection: |
| |
If the room is shaded, reduce the Btus by
10%. |
| |
If the room is very sunny, increase the Btus
by 10%.Make sure doors and windows are shut
to keep the cool air inside the house |
| |
If more than 2 persons will regularly be in
the room, add 600 Btus per person. |

|
Warranty
|
| |
Perhaps
the most important feature, particularly if
you have a history of bad luck with electronics.
Be sure that your air con comes with at least
one year warranty that covers labour and parts
on the entire unit. |

|
|
Temperature
increments |
| |
Be
sure that the temperature can be incremented
in notches of 1° to 2°. This allows for greater
precision and prevents electricity waste. |
| |
|
|
Sleep
setting |
| |
Some
air cons have a sleep setting so that at night
when you are sleeping, the air conditioner
slows the cooling process to a minimum, saving
money and energy. |
| |
|
|
Fan
speed setting |
| |
The
more settings available, the better the energy
saving will be (and more choices you have). |
