preparing FOR SUMMER HEAT
Summer Preparation Matters
As temperatures rise, so does the demand on your air compressor. Summer heat can push your equipment to its limits, leading to overheating, reduced efficiency, or even costly downtime. Now is the time to ensure your systems are ready for the seasonal stress—and AllType Compressor is here to help.
High ambient temperatures affect every part of your compressor system, from increased oil breakdown to higher moisture levels in the air lines. Without proper maintenance, these issues can shorten equipment life and disrupt your operations.
Key Steps for Summer-Ready Compressors
- Clean or Replace Filters
- Dirty or clogged filters restrict airflow and increase operating temperature.
- Check Cooling Systems
- Ensure fans, coolers, and ventilation paths are clean and functional.
- Blow out or brush off debris to prevent heat buildup and ensure optimal airflow.
- Monitor Fluid Levels
- Oil breaks down faster in the summertime. Top off or replace compressor oil and coolant with summer-grade products.
- Drain Moisture Traps
- Increased humidity in summer means more condensation in the system—regular draining is critical.
- Inspect Belts and Hoses
- Heat can accelerate wear, leading to unexpected failures. Inspect for cracks, swelling, or wear, and replace as necessary.
Preventative Maintenance: Your Summer Insurance
At AllType Compressor, we offer a comprehensive Preventative Maintenance (PM) Program to help customers stay ahead of the curve—not just in summer, but year-round. Our PM services are designed to reduce wasted energy, prevent downtime, and eliminate costly emergency repairs.
What’s Included in Our PM Services:
- Filter and oil changes using quality products
- Inspection of belts, hoses, and cooling systems
- Moisture trap checks and drainage
