Air conditioner service and maintenance
Our air conditioning cleaning is usually done as part of our general air conditioner maintenance service. Our maintenance process also involves a performance and safety check. During our service, we’ll examine:
- The total system: We’ll inspect the indoor and outdoor units to see if there are any signs of wear, tear or corrosion. We’ll also clean off any dust or debris we find on the device.
- Electrical components: We’ll examine any electrical connections, wiring and other components to ensure they are still safe, undamaged and properly functioning.
- Refrigerant levels: We’ll check your unit’s refrigerant levels and if necessary, ensure they are topped up or repaired.
- Filters: We’ll check your filter to see how dirty or damaged it is. We will then perform a thorough cleaning or fit a replacement, if it’s necessary.
- Internal components: We’ll inspect the crucial internal components of your device, such as the coils or the fan motor for signs of dirt, corrosion and general wear and tear. We will also ensure the coils are cleaned to improve heat transfer and efficiency.
- Thermostat: Finally, we’ll check the thermostat to see that it is properly calibrated and functioning correctly.

Why is air conditioner cleaning important?
Air conditioning cleaning is a crucial part of keeping your unit functioning for as long as possible. Regular air conditioner cleaning ensures your system maintains the following benefits:
- Efficiency: With regular air conditioner cleaning, your system will operate more effectively and need less energy to cool your space. This can also help keep your energy bills lower.
- Air quality: An air conditioner may circulate dust or allergens throughout the space if it is dirty. Regular cleaning ensures your air is of good quality and free from potential health issues like pollen.
- Future issues: Leaving an air conditioner dirty can cause corrosion or strain that can eventually lead to component failure and costly repairs. With regular cleaning, you can reduce how often these issues occur and extend the lifespan of your unit.
- Warranty: Manufacturers may require you to schedule regular maintenance, including cleaning. Neglecting to schedule cleaning may void your warranty.
Signs your air conditioner needs cleaning
Be sure to check if your air conditioner is showing signs that it needs to be cleaned, including:
- Odd smells: With an unclean air conditioner, mould or mildew may be present in the vents, cycling dirty air and causing a foul or musty smell.
- Noises: If your unit is making grinding, buzzing or rattling noises, there may be dirt build-up on the fan or other components that is affecting your system’s efficiency.
- Higher energy bills: A dirty or malfunctioning air conditioner needs to work harder to cool, which could lead to higher electricity consumption as well as more energy costs.
- Visible dirt: If you can see dirt, dust or debris in the vents and filters of your unit, it’s a clear sign that you should book a cleaning.
- Water leaks: If water is leaking from your air conditioner, it may be caused by drain pans or lines clogged by dirt or debris.
- Allergies: If you notice you or anyone living with you is experiencing more allergies than usual, it may be because of mould or dust trapped in your device.

Frequently asked questions
How often should an air conditioner be cleaned?
Typically, it is recommended that you schedule professional cleaning service at least once a year. However, if your unit sees a lot of usage, or you are located in a hot or dusty city, you may need to book more cleanings.
Please note that a filter should be cleaned out more regularly, at least once a month, to ensure your health and safety.
Do air conditioners need to be professionally cleaned?
While you can personally maintain some components of an air conditioner yourself, many internal components should only be cleaned by a professional. Not only will a professional cleaner ensure your unit is free from harmful buildups, but they are trained to safely clean crucial components without damaging them.
A professional service is also more equipped and trained to handle potential risks like electrical components, keeping you out of harm’s way.
Is it okay to spray water on your air conditioner?
While you can spray an outdoor unit with water to clean it from debris, it may be better to rely on a professional service instead of cleaning it yourself.
While spraying water can help remove dirt and possibly improve the efficiency of the condenser coils, it runs the risk of damaging your system. A professional cleaner will be more aware of where to clean and know the right water and pressure for your system.
Make sure anything you do to your air conditioner aligns with your product warranty policies.
How long does a professional take to clean an air conditioner?
A professional air conditioner cleaning usually takes between 1.5 to 4 hours. However, this can vary depending on the size of the unit and the type of system. Split systems are usually faster, taking 1-2 hours, while ducted systems could take longer.
At Climate Plus, our highly skilled technicians have completed intensive training, so we can complete your cleaning in record time.
Do air conditioners need to rest?
No, typically air conditioners do not need to rest as they are designed to run continuously. Depending on the weather and the type of air conditioner, it may be more efficient to leave the system running at a slightly higher temperature than turning it off.
This is because turning the unit on and off puts strain on the compressor, and the device will also have to start the cooling process all over again.
Can a dirty air conditioner filter make you sick?
Yes, a dirty air conditioner can make you sick if it stays on. Clogged filters may trap dust, allergens and other pollutants that can be cycled through your home from a dirty unit, causing respiratory issues, allergies and other health problems.
Can an air conditioner be cleaned without removing it?
Yes, an air conditioner can be cleaned without having to remove it from its installed location. Many cleaning tasks can be done while the unit is still in place, such as cleaning the grill, filter or exterior surfaces.
Our expert team at Climate Plus is fully equipped to clean a variety of air conditioners, including split system, ducted, or evaporative cooling units.
