Inspect Belts
Belts on evaporator motors or any other equipment need to be checked regularly for signs of wear and tear, such as cracks or friction burns caused by loose belts. A loose belt is an easy fix that improves airflow and lowers electric consumption with less equipment run time.
Properly adjusted belts will:
- Cool better and more efficiently
- Save on Electric Bills
- Prevent system damage
- Increase Air Flow
- Prevent coil freezing due to low airflow
Besides the above, a properly adjusted belt in good shape will help prevent your air conditioner from going down on a hot summer day.
Although belts are rare in homes, they're very common in commercial applications. Most homes have direct-drive motors, which require preventative maintenance.
