Your air conditioner is meant to bring you comfort, not noise. We’ve all had that moment when we’re sitting outside enjoying the summer weather and out of nowhere, it sounds like a jet engine is taking off. That’s why we’re bringing you tips to keep your air conditioner quiet.
The first thing we always address with our customers is how old is your system? With the continuing development of air conditioner technology, air conditioners get quieter all the time, but older air conditioners can be quite loud. They may have been quiet to begin with, but as the machine ages; it develops problems and needs parts replacements, which can cause it to get loud and noisy.
An abnormally loud air conditioner can affect not only your comfort but also your bank account. An increase in the noise level of your air conditioner’s operation often means that there is some kind of inefficiency within the system. Depending on the age and fit of your home, here are some potential solutions to help keep your air conditioner quiet:
Many of these issues stem from a lack of equipment maintenance. Therefore, having your system checked and cleaned regularly means that you’ll be able to spot where parts begin to fail and where your machine has to compensate for them.
