If we try to trace back history as to how and who invented air conditioning, it all points to one person named Willis Carrier in 1902. Together with six other engineers, Carrier formed the Carrier Engineering Corporation and purchased their first factory in Newark, New Jersey. The company was eventually acquired by United Technologies in 1979.
The invention of air cooling was made to develop manufacturing process of a printing plant through controlling its temperature. This invention by Carrier has tremendously improved productivity in workplaces. Today, Carrier is a multi-billion company employing over 43,000 employees that is continuing to serve 170 countries all over the world.

Popular Services for Carrier Units
General Servicing
General servicing is fundamental for maintaining air conditioning systems, providing essential upkeep that can save costs and effort when performed regularly. This includes disassembling and cleaning the front panel, cover, and air filter to enhance air quality. The process also involves cleaning the vacuum evaporator coil for efficient airflow, vacuuming blower parts to eliminate dirt and mold, and clearing the drainage pipe of rust and bacteria. Additionally, the water tray undergoes washing and vacuuming.
Chemical Wash
A chemical wash offers a more thorough cleaning compared to general servicing, suitable for air conditioners that have not been serviced in 6-9 months. It utilizes a chemical solution to clean the air filters, fan, and cooling coil, with the blower also being disassembled and cleaned. For those who use their air conditioners frequently, an annual chemical wash is recommended to remove accumulated dirt.
Chemical Overhaul
An intensive procedure exceeding a chemical wash, a chemical overhaul involves dismantling the entire unit for thorough cleaning. Components such as drainage pipes, heat exchange coils, and blower wheels are meticulously cleaned during this service. It is particularly beneficial for units not serviced in over 9 months and experiencing issues like leaks or unusual noises.
Servicing Process for Carrier
1. Open the Cover
Locate the return grille and carefully opening it. One must take note not to remove the central clamp and screws. In split-type AC, lift the front panel to an angle until a clicking sound is observed. Suspension bars can be used for some models to keep the front panel from closing.
2. Remove and Wash the Air Filter
To remove the acrylic-fiber filters, softly grasp the filter and pull it outwards to remove it from its filter holder. Basically all split type AC has the same positioned filters just as you open the front panels. Some Carrier models have a separate Air freshening filter just under the main filter of some AC. This can be removed after the acrylic-fiber filters are taken out. After it is fully exposed just slide it downwards to remove it from its supporting frame.
Clog inside the AC filter reduces the cooling system of Carrier unit. It is advisable to clean the filter using a vacuum cleaner at least once a month. Clean the air filters with lukewarm running water and allow it to thoroughly dry it in a cool place. This should be done once every two weeks to maintain cleanliness and clogging. Do not use strong cleaning solutions to clean the filters as this would cause the plastic portion to
3. Replace the Air Filter
If all the filters have been properly dried and cleaned everything can be installed back into position. Just insert the Air freshening filter first before the acrylic-fiber filter by inserting it upwards into its supporting frame. After, the acrylic –fiber filter is ready to be inserted back into the AC unit observing its correct position by clicking it back in a way that the left and right edges are in line. The position of the filter should be checked before operation of air conditioner.
