I had one installed eight years ago when I bought my house. I’ve used it to heat the entire place, but this winter, I struggled to maintain even 20°C indoors on really cold days.
Well, today I finally brought my air compressor inside and gave the guts of the indoor unit a thorough blasting - and now it feels like an oven in here. I’ve been lowering the thermostat all day, and it’s still way too hot. It literally feels like it’s putting out twice the heat now. I was expecting a slight improvement, but nothing like this.
Are you suggesting you hose down an indoor unit?
No, I think I misunderstood.
What I was trying to say: I think there are good reasons for having professionals clean your AC.
