That is why all of us do a lot to keep dirt and dust away from our homes. Dust and dirt can not only trouble those with allergies and asthma, but they can also affect your air conditioner. Dust and debris build up creates a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/what-your-dirty-air-conditioner-is-telling-you\/\">dirty air conditioner<\/a>, which can lead to health problems as well as cause your AC to break down.<\/p>\n<p>To learn more and to schedule AC maintenance to keep your air conditioner from building up with dirt, dust, and debris, contact the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/contact-galmiche.php\">heating and air conditioning<\/a> experts at Galmiche &amp; Sons today.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Can_a_Dirty_Air_Conditioner_Affect_Cooling\"><\/span>How Can a Dirty Air Conditioner Affect Cooling?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The biggest problem caused by a dirty air conditioner is reduced cooling. When dust gets into the evaporator coil in the indoor unit or the condenser coil in the outdoor unit, it prevents the coil from releasing or absorbing heat. This means that you will not get the required amount of cold air indoors. Your air conditioner will need to work harder, which will lead to increased wear and tear. There could also be ice buildup on the dirty evaporator coil because it is unable to absorb heat to lower temperatures.<\/p>\n<p>Besides a drop in cooling levels, a dirty air conditioner can also cause indoor air quality to deteriorate. It is likely to blow unwanted air particles into your house, causing serious health issues for you and your family members.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Can_Dust_and_Debris_Damage_Your_Air_Conditioner\"><\/span>How Can Dust and Debris Damage Your Air Conditioner?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Dust and debris can cause the following problems in your air conditioner:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Clogged filters<\/strong>: Air filters play a very important role in maintaining the air quality indoors. It also keeps your unit running efficiently. When dust and debris gather on your air conditioner&#8217;s air filter, it leads to obstructed airflow. Your unit has to work harder to cool your house, which leads to increased wear and tear and a spike in your energy bills. When airflow remains obstructed for prolonged periods, it may even lead to your air conditioning system breaking down. Cleaning and replacing your air filters regularly is a simple and easy way to prevent a dirty air conditioner.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Motor issues<\/strong>: Your air conditioning system is made up of many mechanical and electrical parts. When dust, dirt, and debris get into these parts, it may cause these parts to fail. Dust and debris most commonly damage the fan motor causing electrical faults.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dusty coils<\/strong>: Dusty coils lower the efficiency of your air conditioning unit. Air passes through these coils, gets cooled, and then is circulated indoors. However, dirt and dust create a barrier between the surface of the coils and the air. Therefore, the air is not cooled to the level it normally should be, which leads to your air conditioner working harder. You waste electricity and also don&#8217;t achieve the desired cooling.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ductwork issues<\/strong>: Dust and debris could also accumulate in the ducts. This could lead to poor indoor air quality. Accumulated dust and debris in the ductwork could also restrict air flow, hampering the efficiency of your unit.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Galmiche_Sons_Professional_Cleaning_for_Your_Dirty_Air_Conditioner\"><\/span>Galmiche &amp; Sons: Professional Cleaning for Your Dirty Air Conditioner<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/problems-with-a-dirty-air-conditioner-2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Can a Dirty Air Conditioner Affect Cooling\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-11656\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/problems-with-a-dirty-air-conditioner-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/problems-with-a-dirty-air-conditioner-2.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Do you need help cleaning your dirty air conditioner?
