Regular Aircon Cleaning: To be or not to be?

[FrankDrebin]

Several days ago, pinaayos ko yung A/C resistor then nag-tanong yung A/C mechanic kung kailan ko pa daw last nagpalinis ng A/C? Sabi ko hindi pa since nakuha namin yung vehicle. Dapat daw ay yearly ang A/C cleaning for maintenance at A/C longer lifespan. Baka sales talk lang. Hehehe.

Anyways, may mga instances kasi dito sa Tsikot na after mag-pa-A/C cleaning ay nagkakaroon ng problema so kaya ayaw ko.

What's your opinion?

Dont clean my aircon. Except for the pollen filter so far so good.
Our other cars AC are not cleaned.

That's what Ive heard as well. Pero from what I recall none of our cars went thru a yearly cleaning.

ung kotse din namin hindi na papaclean... pero parang balak ko ipaclean ngayon kasi parang hindi gaaning malamig. ang mahal nga lang ng qoute sa akin...

OT: magkano estimated na damage dito?

I just wait till there is a drop in performance. No regular schedule except for the replacement of filters (when equipped).

i also do not have my a/c cleaned annually.
i just do it kung may drop in performance, o kung may kailangang gawin para isang bukasan na lang.

there was this time when i had my a/c cleaned, mas lalong nagkaloko-loko. palit pa ako ng expansion valve, nasira pa yung a/c vent circulation ko.

hindi rin, up to now since '01 di pa nililinis a/c. still 1/2 pa rin ang setting ng theromostat at malamig pa rin from denso compressor dual a/c.

I notice when i use my rear aircon nagmoist sa rear quarter panel glass ko kasi nasa tabi nun yung ducting ng rear aircon ng innova ko. Kelangan na ba palinis ito? dati naman di to ganito at parang humina ang buga sa rear aircon.

WBR,

My Innova's aircon is still OK after 2 1/2 years. Yung dating Corolla ko, after 5 years ng malinisan ang aircon.

mas ok sana kahit at least once a year cleaning. yung dumi rin kasi naiipon and it affects the performance of your aircon
