17. Completion and Review of Air Conditioning Installation Guide

After an extensive and detailed journey, we have reached the end of our air conditioning installation guide. From basics to advanced, we go through all the necessary steps to ensure a safe, efficient and long-lasting installation. Let's now review the main steps and points covered.

1. Choice of Air Conditioning

First of all, we discussed the importance of choosing the right air conditioner. We consider factors such as the size of the environment, exposure to the sun, the number of people and electronic devices, among others. This information is critical to determining the required cooling capacity, measured in BTUs.

2. Installation Location

Next, we talk about choosing the installation location. We emphasize the importance of a location that allows adequate air circulation, away from heat sources and with easy access for maintenance. We also discussed the need for proper and safe electrical installation.

3. Installation of the Indoor Unit

The installation of the indoor unit involved fixing the bracket to the wall, drilling holes for the connection pipes and installing the unit itself. We discussed the importance of ensuring the unit is level and secure, and correctly connecting the copper pipes and power cord.

4. External Drive Installation

The installation of the outdoor unit also involved fixing a support, this time external, as well as connecting the copper pipes and the power cable. We emphasize the importance of ensuring adequate drainage for condensate and protecting the unit from the elements.

5. Connecting the Units and Testing

With the two units installed, we move on to connecting them. We explain how to connect the copper tubes and the power cable, and how to vacuum the system to ensure the absence of moisture and air. Finally, we performed the function test to confirm that everything was in order.

6. Maintenance and Care

Finally, we talk about the maintenance and care necessary to ensure the proper functioning and longevity of the air conditioner. We discussed the importance of regularly cleaning your filters, checking your drain, and hiring a professional for periodic maintenance.

We hope this guide has been helpful and enlightening. Installing an air conditioner is a process that involves a lot of detail and care, but with the right information and the necessary attention, it is perfectly possible to carry it out successfully. Always remember to prioritize safety and hire a professional if you feel any insecurity. Thanks for joining us on this journey!
