Air conditioners are made for comfort cooling and are supposed to make your living spaces cooler.
When you turn it on, you’ll expect the aircon to do its function and emit cool air making you feel refreshed. However, there are instances where homeowners have complained about a foul or musty smell coming from none other than their air conditioner the moment, they turn it on.
No one wants a foul-smelling air conditioner because not only does it make you feel uncomfortable, it also makes you feel queasy and it defeats the very purpose of providing you comfort. It is normal for them to feel worried when one observes that their air conditioners are acting up, such as emitting an unpleasant odour but worry no more because this isn’t a hopeless case.
If you think about it, your air-conditioner is an inanimate object mostly made up of plastic and copper, which does not produce any smell.
More possible causes for bad odour include dead animals such as rats, mice, snakes, geckos and more commonly in Singapore, lizards.
Decayed vegetation and mildew or mould growing on the cooling coil could also be possible causes for the smell.
Whenever you sense that something is wrong, don’t attempt to fix your air conditioner yourself or do DIY air conditioner cleaning because not only are you exposing yourself to harm (think of electrical wirings and refrigerant gases in your air conditioner), but you could also be compromising your air conditioner’s longevity and possible equipment warranty.
When your air conditioner starts to emit bad odours the best possible solution is to simply have it cleaned “properly and professionally”.
