Tuning Up Your Heating
& Cooling System can Save you up to $50 Each Month
Sens Mechanical specializes in
tuning up air conditioners in Delmarva since 1952.
A poorly tuned air-conditioning system can
occasionally promote the growth and spread of microorganisms, such
as Legionella pneumophila, the infectious agent responsible for
Legionnaires' disease, or thermophilic actinomycetes, but as long as
the air conditioner is kept clean these health hazards can be
avoided. Conversely, properly tuned air conditioning, including
cleaning the "A" coil and exteriro unit can be used to provide
a clean, safe, hypoallergenic atmosphere in homes, offices and other
environments where an appropriate atmosphere is critical to
individual safety and well-being. Air conditioning can have a
positive effect on sufferers of allergies and asthma.
Tune-ups should be performed
twice
per year and include a 17 point Inspection and Tune-Up of the
following items:
¨
