How often should you service your AC in Lahore?

An AC that is cleaned regularly cools better, uses less electricity and lasts longer. With Lahore's dust, heat and many months of daily use, filters and coils get dirty faster than in cooler, cleaner places.

A simple service schedule

• Filters: check and wash them every 2 to 4 weeks while the AC runs daily. In the dusty season, check them more often.
• Full service: once a year, before summer starts. This covers cleaning the indoor unit and the outdoor unit, checking the drain, the gas pressure and the electrical parts.
• Twice a year if the AC runs most of the day, or if it is in a dusty room or near a kitchen.

Why it matters

A clogged filter and dirty coils make the AC work harder to cool the same room. That means weaker cooling, a higher electricity bill and more strain on the compressor. Cleaning also removes the dust and mould that cause bad smells.

Signs your AC needs service now

• Cooling is weaker than before
• Water drips from the indoor unit
• A musty smell comes out with the air
• The AC is noisier than usual
• The electricity bill has gone up without any other reason

Book your AC service before the first heat wave, when everyone else is booking too, and you will get a choice of appointment times.
