We all know how much our air conditioners work during summers to keep our homes cool and comfortable. Frequent use of this could, at times, cause an overload of work, which can lead to several issues with your AC. While there are several other potential causes for AC problems, dirt and debris are usually the first signs. It’s important to do regular dirt and debris cleaning of your AC units or it won’t maintain proper airflow, thus building pressure & causing more issues like refrigerant leak, blockage, high bills, decreased efficiency etc.
If you don't want any more hassle in your life and save money on AC repairs, you need to know how this dust and debris cleaning affects your AC's performance.
The cost of air conditioner cleaning typically ranges from $75 to $400, while the average cost for an AC tune-up is approximately $250. To get an exact quote for your home, contact Team Enoch at (817) 290-9808!
You may not realize this but your AC system filters thousands of cubic feet of air consisting of dust and other airborne particles which are reasons of many respiratory disease every day. It’s really frustrating when your air conditioner has problems, and even more annoying when you realize that regular air conditioner maintenance could have prevented all the costly AC repairs you're now facing.
One of the first signs is dust and debris building up on your AC parts, blocking airflow. As dust and debris collect in the filters and other parts of your AC system, it sets off a chain of problems, making it less efficient and causing noticeable issues with your air conditioner’s performance. This restriction limits the temperature your system can be set at, making it work harder to maintain those settings.
The amount of energy consumed by a dirty AC system can be up to 30 percent more than clean system. This extra consumption not only shortens the lifespan of your system in the long term, but it also directly impacts your monthly utility bills in the short term. A regular maintenance visit by a professional can ensure that operating costs remain in check as well as ensure optimal efficiency.

Evaporator coils in HVAC systems play a vital role in cooling by absorbing heat from indoor air as refrigerant flows through them. However, dirt buildup can create an insulating layer that reduces their efficiency. This can lead to:
The outdoor condenser unit is especially vulnerable to debris accumulation, including leaves, plant matter, dust, dirt, grass clippings, and pollen, all of which can affect its performance.
When these materials clog the condenser, heat transfer is compromised, forcing your system to work harder and potentially leading to compressor failure. This also results in higher energy consumption and higher monthly bills.
Buildup of dirt and debris in your AC system doesn’t only affect performance, it can also negatively impact the air quality in your home. A dirty system may circulate allergens, pollutants, and dust, contribute to respiratory issues, cause foul odors, and increase humidity levels.
Regular maintenance of your HVAC system is crucial for preventing dirt and debris from accumulating in the system. Only a professional can check an HVAC system thoroughly without damaging anything. Choosing a professional service guarantees a deep clean of all key components, careful inspection of electrical connections, regulating airflow, filter cleaning or replacement, and a thorough clearing of the condensate drain line, and much more.
These are some indications that dirt buildup is affecting your system:
If you haven’t called a professional for your HVAC system in a while, now may be the right time for regular maintenance before any potential issues arise. Even though you can perform some basic maintenance tasks yourself, professionals have a better knowledge about your HVAC system. In maintenance services, the first thing a professional will do is clean your HVAC system, as dust and debris are the main factors that compromise both comfort and system efficiency and often leads to higher repair costs down the line.
