The harm of bacteria breeding in air-conditioned rooms without cleaning

The weather is hot in the summer, and many families will use air conditioning. When using air conditioning, you must pay attention to some precautions. That is, if the air conditioner is not cleaned for a long time, it is easy to breed bacteria inside. At this time, the wind blown out by the air conditioner will carry a large number of bacteria, which will make the air dirty, which is relatively harmful to human health. Therefore, the air conditioner should be cleaned in time. Let us learn about this aspect.

1. Electricity consumption and money: It will increase electricity loss and power consumption will probably increase by 30%.

2. Impact on refrigeration: The deterioration of refrigeration effect is not entirely determined by Freon. It may be that the air conditioner needs to be cleaned!

4. Produce noise: If the air conditioner is not cleaned for a long time, it will make a harsh sound after being turned on for a period of time, affecting the rest of the family.

5. Reduced lifespan: The amount of dust inside the air conditioner will increase, and the use of the air conditioner will wear out the internal parts, accelerate the aging of the air conditioner, and shorten the lifespan of the air conditioner.

When it comes to cleaning air conditioners, most people first think of asking a professional to come and clean it, which is indeed a good idea. According to the reporter, the cost of a simple air conditioner cleaning is about 50 yuan. But in fact, you can also do it yourself and give your home air conditioner a "bath". Today, I will teach you how to clean the air conditioner simply.

Wall mounted air conditioner

For ordinary air conditioners in the home, cleaning is not complicated. If your home has a wall-mounted air conditioner installed, be sure to disconnect the power supply before cleaning. Then hold the panel protrusion, open the panel to the position where the panel stops opening, grasp the handle in the center of the air filter, and pull the air filter downward. When there is less dust on the filter, wash it with water or vacuum it. When there is a lot of dust on the filter, soak it in water containing neutral detergent for 10-15 minutes. After washing, shake off the water and place it in a cool place to dry. Remember not to heat or tumble dry it at high temperature. At the same time, you can use a toothbrush tied with a cotton strip and dipped in water to scrub the condenser fins of the indoor unit horizontally to avoid hurting your hands. Alternatively, you can directly use special air conditioner cleaner to clean the condenser. After cleaning, insert the claws of the filter into the front grille. After installing the filter, close the panel and let it sit for 10 minutes, then turn on the air conditioner and adjust the air volume and cooling capacity to the maximum, and keep the air conditioner on for 30 minutes.

If it is a cabinet air conditioner, it is even simpler. First remove the panel of the cabinet, find the evaporator of the air conditioner, shake the special foam cleaner well and spray it evenly on the evaporator of the air conditioner. Then cover the panel, let it sit for about 10 minutes, turn on the air conditioner and adjust the air volume and cooling capacity to the maximum, and keep the air conditioner on for 30 minutes. To prevent foam and dirt from being blown out of the air outlet, cover the air outlet with a wet cloth.
