What Qualifications Are Needed To Service Air Conditioners?

06 Sep 2021

To qualify, you must go through the set standards; otherwise, you will not be a professional in service. You need to have the Singapore workforce skills qualifications (WSQ) in aircon servicing and installation for you to have a chance at doing the groundwork when it comes to servicing. The following are some of the skills that you need to learn if you aim to service air conditioning devices:

Maintenance and installation skills

Whether you are doing commercial or residential installation and maintenance, you need to have the set of skills with you that will help you get the job done professionally. This specialized training will not take too long as it is precise and easy, even for beginners. Installing the device requires you to be keen and concentrated on the job; otherwise, you will end up with shoddy work at the end of the day.

Maintenance also needs you to remain composed and careful as this involves servicing parts and ensuring that the device is working optimally. In service, some parts require replacement while others need to be repaired. This is something you need to know like the back of your hand. You might also need to learn how to thoroughly clean and recondition an air conditioner—which requires you to master the art of aircon chemical overhaul in Singapore.

Control systems skills

Getting lessons on the control system is crucial if you are looking to learn and gain knowledge in the air conditioning servicing field. This is especially important for pneumatic devices such as air con units where control is critical. With these skills, you will be able to monitor various stuff including fluid dynamics, signaling, and programming. All of the practices as mentioned above are relevant and essential when handling gadgets such as the air conditioning unit.

Design skills

Learning the design of the air con unit is vital to servicing it. After all, you cannot service what you know nothing about. Therefore, it is essential that you know the ins and outs of the design of an air con unit before handling it. And in this aspect, the manual is not enough as there is deeper stuff that isn’t displayed in the ordinary user manual.

Learning the design will also help you to gain knowledge of the components that run in an AC. Also, you will need to know which parts depend on the rest to function and the ones which are vital to the running of the device.

As you can see, there are several skills that you need before handling an air conditioner unit. Be careful not to overlook any as they can be the difference between proper servicing of your unit and spoiling the entire device.
