General malfunctions of climatic devices

In principle, HVAC systems (especially industrial ones) are very reliable, manufactured using state-of-the-art technology and designed to operate for many years under the most adverse conditions. But sooner or later, any equipment fails. In climate technology, malfunctions can relate to mechanical, electrical, air and hydraulic systems and manifest themselves in

• complete failure of devices;
  
• termination of certain functions;
  
• temperature or other characteristics of the air outside the specified limits;
  
• extraneous noises and smells;
  
• moisture spreading, drops and stains;
  
• decrease in the energy efficiency of the installation.
  

Correct and timely detection of all problems (and even more so their elimination) is a difficult task even for technical personnel of industrial facilities, not to mention office and residential premises. Mistakes in diagnostics and repairs can be much more expensive than outsourcing specialists with the appropriate qualifications, equipment and spare parts.

It is even more profitable to conclude long-term maintenance contracts, since with regular preventive maintenance, many malfunctions can simply be avoided, paying back the service immediately over the years. It should be remembered that in this way the costs are reduced not only directly for repairs, but also due to downtime in the work of the enterprise.

The motor, as an electromechanical element, is the weak link in many devices. Its bearings wear out (especially with untimely or improper lubrication), the windings are subjected to heat and dynamic loads, which inevitably reduces the service life of conductors and their insulation, compounds, and fasteners. The electric motor of the fan of the condenser unit of the air conditioner, in addition, operates outdoors, where negative temperatures, dust and other contaminants are possible, often (despite the canopies and awnings) – and direct precipitation. Its load (aerodynamic resistance to the rotation of the impeller) changes significantly due to wind or clogging of the air heat exchanger.

It is noteworthy that even a complete stop of the fan of the outdoor unit does not necessarily immediately lead to symptoms of an air conditioner malfunction that are noticeable in the room, but at most objects it is easily controlled from the outside, from where the condenser is visible. Just do not forget that a serviceable fan can be stationary under certain modes and environmental conditions.

Repair of HVAC systems includes many operations that are included in the estimated cost:

• transportation, departure to the object;
  
• complete diagnostics;
  
• dismantling of blocks and parts, including at height;
  
• supply of necessary elements and materials;
  
• replacement of defective parts;
  
• all works according to the list "Regulation No. 2";
  
• reassembly, mechanical, electrical, structural and aesthetic restoration of the system and premises;
  
• performance check and adjustment;
  
• preparation of the relevant documentation.
  

It is also possible (with an appropriate surcharge) to travel outside the Moscow region, or vice versa, repair the air conditioner at a much lower price - in the case when some of the listed items are not needed or certain work is undertaken by the customer (ideally, he can even deliver the entire faulty unit to our stationary workshop). And once again, we draw attention to the fact that many operations are reduced if regular maintenance is carried out at the facility.

Also, the cost of repairs may depend on whether the customer has a complete set of documentation for their equipment. We have user manuals and factory drawings of hundreds of all kinds of climate systems from dozens of manufacturers, however, firstly, they still do not include all those existing in the world, and secondly, local (of a specific object) floor plans, schemes can be extremely useful electrical wiring, air ducts, etc.

Fancoil Motors specializes in the supply of a wide variety of HVAC systems and components, their design, installation, commissioning, repair and maintenance. In particular, we can order repair of an air conditioner (replacement of the electric motor of its fan) at a very attractive price. And the very word motors in our name speaks of the main "trick" of the enterprise:

WE HAVE A LOT OF ELECTRIC MOTORS. We have hundreds of them. And not pieces, but models. And not only in the catalog, but also directly in the warehouse in Moscow.

And this is the best help for quick and high-quality repairs:

• no need to wait for delivery, which can take weeks,
  
• to order which you must first find out the exact designation of the modification,
  
• which is not always in documents (especially in Russified ones),
  
• that is, it may be necessary to disassemble the outdoor unit in advance,
  
• which is often at a considerable height,
  
• for work that requires special (highly paid) personnel,
  
• which, therefore, will have to be involved twice ...
  

Or (which is what most of our competitors do), instead of ordering and waiting for a native air conditioner fan motor that is not in stock, you can get out by choosing “almost the same” instead. And this almost always negatively affects the characteristics of the equipment and the duration of its subsequent operation.

Reducing the repair time is saving time not only for the customer, but also for ours. Hence, our expenses. This is one of the reasons for the low prices for air conditioner repairs at Fancoil Motors.
