Welcome to airconditionmission3.com where you can find all things related to the world of Air Conditioners. Air conditioning. What a lifesaver. It has made the suburbs possible. Manufacturing from the north to the south occurred because plants could be built and people could work in them without collapsing from the heat. Its cost at one point, however, drew one scientist, William Schockley the co-inventor of the transistor, to move his research facilities to California, to what later became known as Silicon Valley. There he did not have to put air conditioning in his building. Even when air-conditioning was purposely avoided, it had an impact.

So it started out as a way of making people comfortable. Right? Well, not exactly. In 1882, thanks to Thomas Edison, the first electric power plant opened in New York making it possible for the first time to have an inexpensive source of energy for residential and commercial buildings. And by 1889, central station refrigeration was used in large cities to preserve foods and documents. It was well known that a cool surrounding could preserve foods and other perishables for a long time. But what was not well known was how humidity and heat were related. Then in 1902, Willis Carrier built the first air conditioner to combat humidity inside a printing company. Controlling the humidity in printing companies and textile mills was the start of environment management.

  
  

Why do you need Preventive Maintenance on your air-conditioning unit?

02/07/12

 

An air conditioning unit is a piece of mechanical equipment, which requires routine inspections and maintenance. Roof top units and ground-mounted units face some of the same challenges here in Arizona with regards to maintenance needs. There are two coils on the unit, both of which air must flow through. The indoor coil is protected by a air conditioning filter, which is supposed to catch most of the particles in the air. The outdoor coil collects dirt and debris and needs to be cleaned twice a year. The indoor coil is called the evaporator coil, and the outdoor coil is the condenser. Most major manufacturers recommend having your equipment serviced twice a year.

Jolly Air recommends having your HVAC system serviced and maintained by us twice a year. Call us today for one of our PMA's.

The ground-mounted unit (typically called the air conditioning Condenser) usually picks up more contaminates than one mounted on the roof. Grass, paper, dirt, lint, and dog hair are a few of things that will stop the air from circulating properly through the coil. When on the roof, the unit typically collects dirt and air born pollutants.

Most motors produced today for residential use are sealed and do not require lubrication. Belts need to be adjusted and even replaced occasionally.
