How Often Do Ductless Mini-Splits Need Maintenance?

If you rely on your ductless system for both heating and cooling, like any other piece of HVAC equipment, maintenance should ideally be performed once before the cooling season and again before the heating season. At the very least, though, ensure maintenance is performed at least once per year. Contact the NATE-certified heating and cooling technicians at Grove to schedule ductless mini-split maintenance service.

What’s Included in a Ductless Mini-Split Tune-Up?

A ductless min- split tune-up typically includes the following tasks:

• Cleaning the Indoor Unit. Cleaning the evaporator coil, blower wheel, and other components of the indoor unit to ensure proper airflow and efficiency.
• Cleaning the Outdoor Unit. Cleaning the condenser coil, fan blades, and other outdoor components to remove any dirt, debris, or other buildup that may affect the unit’s performance.
• Inspecting Electrical Connections. Inspecting and tightening any electrical connections to ensure safe and reliable operation.
• Checking Refrigerant Levels. Checking the refrigerant levels and adding more if necessary to ensure proper cooling and efficiency.
• Inspecting and Replacing Filters. Inspecting and replacing any air filters to ensure proper airflow and indoor air quality.
• Testing System Performance. Running the system to test its overall performance and making any necessary adjustments.

What Are the Benefits of Ductless Mini-Split Maintenance?

If you’re on the fence about whether to have ductless system maintenance performed, consider the following benefits:

Improved Efficiency

A maintenance tune-up ensures the system is well-calibrated, cleaned, and operating without any issues. This will improve your mini-splits’ efficiency and lead to lower energy bills.

Extended Lifespan

If your ductless mini-split is operating with issues or running inefficiently due to a lack of maintenance, it stays on longer to reach the set temperature. This can lead to increased wear and tear and premature system replacement. If you want your ductless system to operate for up to 20 years, invest in regular maintenance.

Improved Indoor Air Quality

Regular cleaning of the indoor unit and filters can help improve the quality of the air you breathe by removing dust, pollen, and other allergens.

Fewer Breakdowns

A lack of regular maintenance is the number-one cause of repairs which can really add up over time. A maintenance visit will prevent major repair issues by uncovering minor issues before they balloon into bigger, more expensive problems.

Enhanced Comfort

A lack of maintenance can lead to sub-par system performance which can cause comfort issues such as inadequate heating and cooling or hot and cold spots around the home.
