The microclimate in the room, and hence the productivity of a person during work or comfort during rest, depends on the high-quality cooling of the air conditioner. Hence, it is the most important function of your Ruud air conditioner. Often the unit is not worth repairing. It is better to replace it than fix. So when is the time to replace your Ruud AC?
If your air conditioner has been working for more than 10 years and it feels difficulties with performance, it is time to reconsider repairing it. A more efficient model will save you more cooling energy costs.
Poor airflow is a result of the clogged filters. Take a cloth to clean AC filters and ducts to improve the efficiency of your AC unit. Moreover, you should replace the AC filters every 1-3 months or per the manufacturer’s instructions.
A musty smell is an indicator of mold potentially growing inside your unit. Breathing unhealthy air from a dirty HVAC system can lead to many types of illnesses. When in doubt, call your local professionals and get your AC unit checked. A strong smell could indicate a wire is possibly burning and needs immediate attention.
