How often should you service your AC in Qatar? The answer is different from what you might expect if you're used to milder climates.
The Standard Recommendation
While most countries recommend annual or bi-annual AC service, Qatar's unique conditions demand more frequent attention:
- Residential AC: Every 3-4 months
- Commercial AC: Every 2-3 months
- High-dust areas: Every 2 months
Why More Frequent in Qatar?
- Extended usage: AC runs 8-10 months per year, often 24/7 in summer
- Dust and sand: Clogs filters and coils faster
- Extreme temperatures: Puts more stress on components
- High humidity: Increases mold and drainage issues
Recommended Service Schedule
| Month | Service Type |
|---|---|
| March | Full maintenance (pre-summer) |
| June | Filter and drain check |
| September | Full maintenance (post-summer) |
| December | Filter check and general inspection |
