After a long winter with the windows closed, it’s easy to forget how much dust your computer can collect. It’s more than you’d think, and the problem is that your PC’s vents and fans need room to breathe. Dust that builds up inside a desktop or laptop over time is a serious issue: at best it reduces the efficiency of your cooling system, and at worst it cooks your components and causes data loss. A professional computer cleaning and tune-up service can get your system running quiet, cool and fast again.

Signs Your System May Need a Spring Cleaning

Not sure if your PC needs attention? Here are the most common warning signs we see on customer machines:

• Fans running louder than usual, or spinning at full speed even during light use
• Your PC or laptop feels hot to the touch, or vents are blowing noticeably warm air
• Random shutdowns, freezing, or crashing during gaming, streaming or video calls
• Performance has slowly dropped off compared to when the system was new
• You can see dust or fluff around the vents, fans or power supply
• Laptop fan runs constantly and the case gets uncomfortably warm on your lap
• It’s been 12 months or more since your last professional clean and tune-up

If any of that sounds familiar, here’s what we regularly find when we open up systems that haven’t been cleaned in a while:

It doesn’t matter whether it’s a Mini-PC, a MacBook or a full gaming rig — if your system is starting to run slow, there’s a good chance dust clogging the vents is the culprit. That’s why we offer a full computer clean and tune-up service starting at $150 AUD. We clear out the vents, reapply thermal paste, and go through your operating system to remove software that’s slowing you down.
