Întreţinere
Regular maintenance helps ensure the longevity and efficient operation of your blower motor and HVAC system.
- Înlocuirea filtrului de aer: Regularly check and replace your furnace air filter (typically every 1-3 months, depending on usage and household conditions). A clogged filter restricts airflow and can overwork the motor.
- Curățarea roții suflantei: Annually, inspect the blower wheel for dirt and debris buildup. A dirty blower wheel can cause imbalance and reduce airflow. Clean gently with a soft brush and vacuum.
- Inspecția motorului: Periodically inspect the motor for any signs of wear, loose wiring, or unusual heat. Ensure mounting bolts are secure.
- Service profesional: It is recommended to have your HVAC system, including the blower motor, professionally inspected and serviced annually.
