Most electrical appliances operate on either a 50-cycle or a 60-cycle system. This means the supply of electricity reaching the equipment is repeated 50 times for the 50-cycle or 60 times for the 60-cycle, in one second. The number of cycles per second (Hertz) is known as the frequency of the supply.

In Jamaica and the United Kingdom (UK), electrical equipment operate on 50 Hertz (Hz), while in North America the standard is 60Hz. If you use 60Hz equipment on the Jamaican 50Hz system, you risk damage to your equipment; especially with larger appliances like refrigerators, air conditioners and washing machines.

Possible effects of mixing cycles include:

Overheating – motors will rotate at a slower pace as they pull more current
Under Performance – e.g. pumps and washing machines will spin at a slower rate
Permanent Damage – increased temperatures can wear out wiring thus reducing the lifespan of the equipment
When shopping for electrical equipment always enquire about the cycle system, and ensure that you buy the correct equipment for the Jamaican 50-cycle system.

Keep your air conditioner running at it's optimum all year round.

An air conditioner that is regularly serviced and maintained will run better and last longer. A poorly maintained air conditioner will be inefficient, use more energy and be prone to breakdown. It could also be dirty and unhealthy.

Regular and ongoing maintenance also gives you the piece of mind of knowing that your air conditioner can be relied upon and will constantly work at its optimum capacity.

To ensure your air conditioner is running it's best, and in many cases, to ensure you satisfy warranty conditions, manufacturers do advise that maintenance be carried out at least once a year.
