Broken or worn-out belts are a common issue in the maintenance of air conditioning (A/C) units. Belts are components in many A/C systems that can experience wear and tear over time due to factors like friction and heat. Regular preventive maintenance is essential for identifying and addressing issues with these belts before they break, as a broken belt can lead to the A/C unit not functioning properly.

During routine maintenance, HVAC technicians often inspect and replace belts that show signs of wear, such as cracks, fraying, or excessive slack. This proactive approach can help prevent more significant and costly A/C system failures and downtime. In addition to belts, maintenance checks typically include cleaning and lubricating components, checking refrigerant levels, and ensuring the overall efficiency and safety of the system.

Regular maintenance is essential to keep your A/C unit running smoothly and efficiently, extend its lifespan, and avoid unexpected breakdowns. It is recommended to follow a maintenance schedule, which may vary depending on the type of A/C system and its usage. Call today to determine the best maintenance routine for your needs.
