Your air conditioner is one of the most important appliances for comfort in Singapore’s heat. However, over time, it may start to lose its cooling power. When that happens, it might be time for more than just basic cleaning. In fact, it could need a chemical overhaul.
1. First of all, the air isn't cold anymore
If your aircon is blowing warm or weak air even at the coldest setting, this is a big red flag. Dirt and grime may be clogging the internal parts, especially the cooling coil. As a result, the unit can’t cool the air properly. A chemical overhaul gives your system a deep clean, helping it cool your room effectively again.
2. Next, you notice a bad smell
Strange smells coming from your aircon usually mean that mold or bacteria is growing inside. This can happen when moisture and dirt build up over time. Unfortunately, a general service may not be enough to remove the odor. That’s where a chemical wash comes in—it clears out hidden dirt and gets rid of the smell for good.
3. Then, water starts leaking
Another sign is water leaking from your aircon. Often, this is caused by a blocked drain pipe or a dirty cooling coil. If left unchecked, it could damage your walls or furniture. A chemical overhaul not only clears the blockages but also helps prevent future leaks.
4. Also, your aircon sounds noisy
Rattling, buzzing, or grinding sounds are signs that parts inside the unit are dirty or loose. These noises often mean that the fan or motor is struggling. A chemical overhaul cleans and checks all parts of the system, helping your aircon run quietly again.
5. Lastly, your electricity bill goes up
If your electricity bill suddenly increases without any other reason, your aircon might be working too hard to cool the room. A dirty system uses more energy. Cleaning it thoroughly with a chemical overhaul can make your unit run more efficiently and save you money.
So, when should you book a chemical overhaul?
Generally, if your aircon is used daily, it’s best to schedule a chemical overhaul every 1–2 years. If general servicing doesn’t seem to improve performance, it may be time to go deeper.
If your aircon shows any of these signs—weak cooling, bad smells, leaking water, strange noises, or high energy bills—don’t wait too long. A chemical overhaul can fix these issues and make your aircon work like new again.
