George Town, UK -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/22/2020 -- In order to protect the health and safety of the Cayman communities, the government has issued a stay-at-home order for all residents and has further suspended the operations of non-essential businesses. As Cayman's leading air conditioning company, Polar Bear Air Conditioning will continue to keep locals safe, cool, and comfortable at home with an array of AC and appliance services. However, the Polar Bear team is only available for emergency repairs until further notice.

In compliance with the recent Order, Polar Bear Air Conditioning will be postponing regular AC maintenance services in order to minimize travel and social contact. However, to support the community during these uncertain times the company is offering free remote guidance and assistance with senior air conditioning and appliance technicians via phone or video call for any issues with air conditioners or appliances. The aim is to make the long hours spent indoors more comfortable and convenient.

The Polar Bear team is approved to perform on-site diagnostics and repairs, only within the designated 5:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. curfew hours, for the following emergency situations only:

- Failure of necessary home appliances, such as refrigerators, freezer, stove, oven, washer, and dryer.
- AC not working in a critical area of the home
- Appliances or AC that emit a burning smell or start to smoke.
- Continuous leaking from appliances or AC causing possible property damage.
- Indoor air quality concerns, for example those with asthma/allergies, or dangerous gas odors, causing potential health risks.
- Any other appliance or AC issues that become a threat to the safety of residents.

The number one focus for the team is the health and safety of themselves, homeowners and the wider community. Polar Bear Service Technicians are equipped with N95 masks, protective gloves and shoe covers. They will also carry hand sanitizer and disinfectant Dettol spray during each service. All field staff have been trained on proper use of their Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) as per medical experts' advice over a 5 day Zoom training course. Customers can expect service technicians to wash their hands frequently, sanitize tools before and after use, and maintain a safe distance of at least six feet from others. The Polar Bear team asks customers to show their technicians the same respect by abiding to similar health and safety measures.

Until the Polar Bear team is allowed to provide customers with non-urgent air conditioning maintenance, repairs, and installations, homeowners may follow the tips listed below to maintain safe indoor air quality (IAQ) and keep their appliances functioning properly.

DIY IAQ Tasks:
- Open windows to bring in fresh air
- Regularly clean floor and carpets
- Try to only use natural and fragrance-free cleaning products, air fresheners, and aerosol spray
- Washable AC filters that are dirty should be removed, washed, dried, and reinstalled

Appliance Tips:
- Clean or change any dirty filters for dishwashers, air conditioners, and other important appliances
- Avoid blocking the vents of the refrigerator or freezer
- Run the cleaning cycle on washers, dishwashers, and ovens
- Use only the appropriate amount of laundry detergent, but never more
- Don't overload the washers or dryers
- Clean the dryer lint filter after each cycle

Hopefully, these quick tips will make sheltering in place at home and working from home a little more comfortable and enjoyable during this difficult time. Polar Bear Air Conditioning will be available by phone for those who need extra assistance.

Lastly, it can be difficult to remain positive and optimistic during these challenging times, but the Polar Bear team encourages everyone to try their best. The Nexstar Network, a strategic partner of Polar Bear Air Conditioning and Appliance Doctors, has a simple morning exercise called the '5-5-20' that has helped the team combat their negative thoughts. It goes like this:

- Write down 5 things to be grateful for
- Write down 5 goals for the day
- Do 20 repetitions OR 20 minutes of a physical exercise

The Polar Bear team, their loyal customers, and the Cayman community as a whole have survived and triumphed over many dilemmas — the aftermath of Hurricane Gilbert, the aftermath of Hurricane Ivan, the 2008 recession. There's no doubt that our resilient community will triumph over the COVID-19 crisis as well.

George Town, Grand Cayman -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/02/2020 -- Polar Bear Air Conditioning is well-known for its premier air conditioning services throughout the Cayman Islands. The company's dedication to customer service, expertise in the field, and affordable solutions have put its team on the map as the leading comfort consultants in their area. But that's not all Polar Bear is known for. Since 1988, the Polar Bear Air Conditioning team has been dedicated to supporting the Cayman community. Most recently, Polar Bear partnered with a local government agency, the Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS), to bring the holiday spirit to a local woman's home.

Born and bred Caymanians know that the holidays are a sacred time. With friends and family visiting each other all season long, a clean home and yard is imperative. For most capable homeowners, this is an easy feat. For others, it's a daunting — perhaps even impossible — challenge. For example, Mrs. Doris, an elderly neighbor in the district of George Town, was too weak to clear all the debris piled up in her yard. Luckily, she had a little help.

The Polar Bear Air Conditioning team paid Mrs. Doris a visit on Saturday, December 21, 2019. They were able to clear the wreckage found in her front yard with speed and efficiency. In a few short hours, Mrs. Doris came out to find a clear yard, which put the biggest smile on her face. Although she has since passed away, the Polar Bear Air Conditioning team was happy to get to know her and help her enjoy her holiday season.

Serving the local community is a part of Polar Bear's culture and values so they're happy to serve in this way. Visit https://polarbear.ky/ to learn more.

George Town, Cayman Islands -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/09/2019 -- Polar Bear Air Conditioning is encouraging all locals to check their home cooling systems for water or refrigerant leaks. Air conditioning is a necessity in the Cayman Islands, where temperatures are sweltering for the majority of the year. A leakage in the AC system could be a symptom of a much bigger problem that should be treated immediately.

Preventative AC maintenance in the Cayman Islands is crucial to keep cooling systems functioning properly during the year. Polar Bear Air Conditioning offers worry-free AC maintenance for both residential and commercial customers. Their worry-free preventative care reminds customers about every upcoming service, which includes a status report and future recommendations. Polar Bear Air Conditioning makes sure every AC system they service is running at full efficiency and delivers the highest air quality. All of this is backed by their 100% Satisfaction Guarantee.

For those who do have a leaking unit, Polar Bear Air Conditioning will check for the following problems during a diagnosis: dirty air filter, clogged condensation drain, cracked drain pan, and faulty installation. A dirty air filter, clogged condensation drain, and low refrigerant can all cause the coils to freeze up. As the coils melt, the condensation will eventually overflow the drain pan—which is what catches moisture in the unit and deposits the water outside—and cause leakage.

Polar Bear Air Conditioning doesn't want any of its customers to survive the hot days without AC. Whether it's maintenance, repairs, or a replacement, Polar Bear Air Conditioning does it all. Its team can even install new units for those looking at purchasing a more energy-efficient AC unit in the Cayman Islands. Contact the company today for more information.
