how often do uhave yur aircon cleaned?

[Ungas]

OTEP::: The drier thingie is located under the hood. Eto yung may maliit na glass window to check if freon are enough for your system. Kadalsan pinapalitan daw ito after 2 annual aircon check or 2 times cooling coils replacement. Dito daw naiipon yung mga dumi nakasama sa freon.

[OTEP]

Ungas,

Kalokohan yata yun ha. Ewan ko lang. Hindi kasi service item ang drier, eh. Paano dudumi ang freon? Closed system iyon. Unless nacocontaminate dahils sa 'preventive' aircon cleaning thingie or nagleak ang system and contaminants found their way in (which is remote since pinhole size lang namang ang butas ng a/c system kadalasan).

[Ungas]

I don't know much about these aircon stuffs. But I notice there are many driers replaced in every aircon shops around. Isa rin daw ito sa mga culprits pag hindi lumalamig ang aircon. :D

Ungas,

Basta itigil na ang annual cleaning ek ek na yan. hehehe. Para tayong hinoholdap, eh. Nasa UST na ko. Ang tagal ni Yoli, may pasyente pa. :mrgreen:

[Bandido]

Yup! I agree with that stand. Lalo lang magdoble doble yung gastos in the end after summing up all the expenses.

Drier prices depends on what make & type of vehicle and freon used. Usually sa car prices much lower and mas maliit and drier, single aircon unit lang kasi. Yung sa akin mas malaki yung size ng drier used for dual aircons.

Sir Ungas,

hehehe Pang SUV pala kala ko pang kotse lang. Pero try mo din dun kina mang mar may nakakasabay din ako dun na naka pajero nag papaservice.

[Ungas]

One thing I know is that the cooling coils for Pajero are extremely expensive. Imagine a 12-15K for those laminated cooling coils which has better cooling effect than normal ones. 8O

[non-vtec]

cleaning of the a/c system should be done periodically but not necessarily every year.at least pag mahina na yung buga ng blower; meaning madumi na yung cooling coil. the dirt and debris in the cooling coil lessens the aircon's efficiency to cool down the car, plus it corrodes the metal fins of the coil kaya nagkakaroon ng leaks. unlike sa mga bagong cars na may built in filter na yung aircon nila.

ungas,

hindi ba ni-leak test yung evaporator mo habang nililinis?

[OTEP]

Ungas,

Aling coils? Yung nasa ilalim ng dash? Japeyks ang binili ko, eh.

Sorry nga pala kung mainit kanina, ha. My condenser fan is still not running. Pero kapag ok na yun, malamig na siya ulit.

[buknoy2002]

n i think cleaning kina maryo e 650 lang all in...

[OTEP]

buknoy2002,

Ang mura noh. hehehe. Pwede mo pa laruin mga alaga niya sa mini zoo.

[buddyclub]

i think pag service ng auto mo sa casa they are checking nman on your a/c everytime na pag papaservice ka eh... :D hehe

[rodcarolino]

tip mga pre, dont use air freshener that is made of gel, yun ang isang cause ng dumi sa aircon besides the dirt and dust on your carpet..

[mk]

sa akin ,ayaw ko palinis hangang walang sira....dahil pag pinalinis and ayos pa yung aircon, bgla na lang masisira, don't know why, i have an car, 4 years na , walang linis aircon , malamig parin, samantal may isa akong car, pina linis ko, after one week ndi na lumamig....so lesson learned..."don't fix if i't ain't broke":mrgreen:

[cesar]

ok... after reading nth number of pages re aircon cleaning... i therefore conclude that i'll wait na lang paghumina na lamig ng aircon saka ko papalinis or papacheck. Worry ko din kasi yung "tanggal-kabit".. may masisira talaga.. o magagasgas.. like ung mga plastic parts ng dashboard, etc...

[Galactus]

Hehehe, I remember the time na pinalinis ko yung evaporator ng Sentra 3 ko. It was the first time I had it cleaned (after 9 years), and only because the AC technician suspected a leak in the evap. Nawalan kasi ng lamig yung AC. Otherwise, hindi ko siya papaayos.

Anyway, nung binuksan, andaming dumi tsaka natuyong dahon. All shapes and sizes, pati yata balat ng kendi at mga buto ng sari-saring prutas. I was really flabbergasted to see all that trash na nakapasok dun sa housing ng evaporator. Sa paglinis pa lang nun, sulit na yung binayad ko, hehehe.

Dun sa Accord ko, never ko pang pinalinis in the 4 years I've been using it. Malakas pa rin naman ang buga ng hangin. Tsaka, medyomakunat kasi ako eh, kaya hintayin ko na lang munang magka-diperensya bago ko paayos, hehehe.

[anthon05]

ako naman gusto ko na rin sana palinis yung AC ng crosswind ko..

8 yrs na ..nung nabasa ko itong thread naisip ko wag na lang kaya. so far yung lamig niya ok naman, d naman malamig na malamig. pero ang buga malakas naman. natakot ako sa mga nagka bad experience..

by the way how much ba pa cleaning? kasi itong crosswind dalawa ang blower.,

thanks
