Maintaining Your Air Handling Unit

by Rudra S. Consultant
When it comes to maintaining a comfortable and safe indoor environment, a good Air Handling Unit (AHU) is the solution to your air-related problems. AHUs (Air Handling Units) are essential in providing cool air during the summer and heated air during the winter. However, finding a suitable unit or a decent supplier is not enough. You also need to take care of the unit to make sure it lasts longer and does not cause trouble every now and then. In this article, we'll discuss how you can maintain your AHU (Air Handling Unit) to experience uninterrupted quality air.

Best Air Handling Unit (AHU)
To ensure your AHU (Air Handling Unit) stays protected for a long time, there are a few factors to keep in mind during installation.
•    Firstly, it's essential to get your unit installed by professionals. Your unit supplier can help you out with this by sending their own professionals or connecting you with them. This way, you won't face any trouble during or after the installation of the unit.
•    Secondly, the place you choose for your unit installation should be away from dirt, grass, leaves, or anything else. There must be at least 2 feet of space around the unit to keep it safe and let the service professionals have easy access to it.

Standard Air Handling Units (AHUs)
Even if you don't go for a complete maintenance service, there are a few inspections you can do to ensure that your AHU (Air Handling Unit) is perfectly intact.
•    One of the things you can do is run a visual inspection to check if there are any cracks or holes anywhere in the unit. These small cracks or holes leak the air out of the unit and reduce its performance. In case you notice them, contact the supplier for help.
•    The filter of your unit needs to be changed every once in a while for your unit to work efficiently. The time duration between each replacement depends on your usage of the unit and its surrounding conditions.
•    Go for a professional inspection as professionals can find issues that your eyes might miss because they have complete knowledge of the system.
•    You can also replace the components of the unit that might be causing issues. Replacing components of your AHU (Air Handling Unit) can help you make the unit as good as new, improve performance, and save energy as well.
•    The functioning of the main components of your unit must also be smooth. For that, you can check the unit’s fan motor and belts to ensure they are clean and functioning properly. In case you feel they are not working as usual; you will have to lubricate any moving parts as needed.

With these points in mind, you can easily take care of your AHU (Air Handling Unit). One more thing you can do is ask your supplier for help. They will tell you about the regular maintenance points and other things you can take care of according to your unique usage and surroundings. This will make sure that the unit does not cause any trouble to you in the long run and works smoothly.

In conclusion,
An AHU (Air Handling Unit) is an essential part of maintaining a comfortable and safe indoor environment. However, proper maintenance is crucial to ensure that your unit lasts longer and works efficiently. By following these tips, you can maintain your AHU (Air Handling Unit) and experience uninterrupted quality air. If you're looking for a supplier, make sure you only go with a trusted one. They will not only help you with the purchase or installation but also with regular maintenance and everything else in the long run. So, you can enjoy quality air without any worries.
