Is your Air Conditioner a fire hazard?

With many aircons in use day and night, energy providers are reminding people to stay safe by keeping air conditioners clean and maintained.

We have been facing some extreme weather conditions lately and with this heat sticking around for a while, there are more and more of us using our air-conditioners on a daily basis.

Fires on the Gold Coast, Gladstone and other areas in Australia have started in air-conditioners. It isn’t always an electrical fault in the aircon that starts the fire, a build up of contaminants or an outdated unit that overheats and has gone past its prime can be a fire hazard.

A build up of dust and debris inside your main air conditioner or the outside unit is an accident waiting to happen. Add to that the contaminants that you could be breathing in on a daily basis. Mould, animal droppings, pet dander, dust, pollen and bacteria will be blown into the air every time you turn your air conditioner on.

You can protect the health of your loved ones or employees by taking a few simple steps.

Make sure all debris is kept away from outside units, clean your filters every month, replace outdated air conditioners and, most importantly, make sure you have your air conditioner professionally checked and cleaned at least every 6 months.

Not only are you taking care of your health, you are also taking care of your wallet as a clean air conditioner uses less power to run.
