The reasons for removing the components of the split system can be different - major repairs in the room, moving to a new dwelling. If you invite a specialist to dismantle the air conditioner, then for this service you will have to pay from 2 800 to 4 500 rubles( depending on the model).But the main thing is not in this - how long will the master have to wait? And if the circumstances have developed so that there is no time? We'll figure it out how to do it yourself.
Recommended operating procedure for
The first thing to do is make sure that the grounding is not broken. Elementary precaution, no more.
Next - a common algorithm for actions. With self-dismantling( as well as when installing a split-system), it is necessary to take into account all the features of the system installation, the specifics of the connection to the power supply and other nuances.
Removing the refrigerant from the indoor unit
- The gas circulates in a closed loop. Therefore, the path to the indoor unit should be closed. To do this, the tap is closed on the outside( outside) window. It is located on a suitable copper tube( thin).To twist it, you need a hex wrench.
- The air conditioner turns on. Mode - cooling.
Here a number of questions and problems may arise:
First, , the system will immediately give a "failure."Very rarely, but it happens. The output is simple - connect the external unit directly to the outlet. Naturally, this requires at least elementary knowledge of technology. If for a host such a recomputation is difficult, then it is not a sin to turn to a knowledgeable neighbor. There is always a way out.
Secondly, , how many "chasing" the system? Nobody will give an exact answer. The duration of the work depends on the model. By the way, employees of service departments do not like to share this secret in order not to lose potential customers. But an analysis of all the feedback and advice on this issue suggests that within 60 seconds( ± 2).
During operation of the air conditioner, the gas will be removed from the indoor unit and partly from the connection tube. Naturally, some losses of freon in the process of further disassembly of the system can not be avoided, but this is already the cost of independent dismantling.
The appliance switches off and closes the tap on a second tube, which is more suitable for the outdoor unit - thicker, and the first one( if necessary) is also pulled up. Everything - the coolant is "driven" and clogged in the condenser.
Power out of the
system If the plug is plugged into the outlet, it is pulled out. In case of connection directly to the shield using an extension cable, the protection circuit breaker is disconnected and all the ends are disconnected.
Dismantling of communications
Where to start? How convenient. The task is to remove all tubes and wires. The main difficulty is the detachment from the indoor unit. If you need to "squeeze" it from the wall, you need not be afraid - the body is fixed only in the upper part, on the horizontal bar.
Removing the indoor unit
There is no difficulty in this. It is enough to open the cover of the casing, and it will immediately become clear. As a rule, the block simply rises a little upwards, and on itself. By the way, this is a convenient moment to clean the air conditioner, as well as filters.
Outdoor unit
If all disconnections are made, it is simply removed from the landing "socket".The difficulty is that it has a significant weight. Each model has its own parameter. Perhaps you need help. But how to work together in a windowway, so as not to interfere with each other? All this must be thought through.
Recommendations of
- If it is supposed to transport the unit and it is not known when it will be mounted again, it is preferable to close all branch pipes with plugs. For example, twisted pieces of cloth, thick paper. But this must be done so that the channels do not get dust. Otherwise, you will have to call the wizard and pay for the forced cleaning of the system.
- When disconnecting pipes and wires, their ends must be marked( marked).Additionally, sketch everything. It is not known when the assembly will be re-assembled, so it is not worthwhile to rely on your own memory and on the fact that in time the marks will not be erased.
- It should be noted that violation of the rules for dismantling the outdoor unit often leads to a leak of refrigerant. So, you need to call a specialist to download it. The work itself is estimated to be low( about 650 rubles), but gas is quite expensive. Restoring the efficiency of the external unit is comparable to the cost of services for professionals in the dismantling. If there is no confidence in their abilities, then it is more expedient to address them immediately.
- Care must be taken when transporting the air conditioner. The most "tender" part of the system is a vacuum pump, which is quite expensive. Plus - its installation and adjustment of the system.
And the last thing - before you disassemble the air-conditioning system, you should study the device of this particular model, the principle of its functioning, at least in general terms. To climb with a screwdriver and a key "blindly" is a guarantee that you have to give the climatic device for repair.
