Is your Aircon Compressor Noisy? Want to stop?

                Your aircon compressor is the part that’s responsible for circulating refrigerant (the liquid/gas that cools your home’s air). Due to normal aircon servicing wear and tear, parts inside the compressor can become loose and create a loud banging sound as they rattle around inside the compressor’s other casing.

    To reduce the noise on my aircon compressor:

                Typically, manufacturers make sound blankets out of fiberglass and cover them with a vinyl face. A sound blanket will help keep the noise level of your aircon unit to a minimum. You can also have your contractor install a sound blanket around the aircon installation. Today’s aircon is quieter than ever. And we want to make sure you stay that way. High-efficiency aircon units incorporate sound dampening technology and two-stage (variable speed) compressors to keep noise levels below 55 decibels.

                So if you hear unusual sounds coming from your aircon chemical wash during normal operation, don’t ignore them, as this could be a sign that the unit needs a repair or an upgrade. Ignoring the mysterious noises from your aircon repair can turn minor issues into major expenses, as these noises could signal anything from needing a simple time up to costly repairs. The sooner you can determine the cause of the noise and resolve your aircon issues, the better.
