If you have noticed that lately yours has become very hot and noisy, the problem is most likely in a clogged cooling system. On average, you need to clean your Macbook from dust once a year. And once every 2-3 years, it is also advisable to replace the thermal paste.

Overheating problem

One of the worst enemies of the MacBook is dust. It clogs into the radiator of the cooling system and the fans cannot cool the radiator, as they blow on the dust, and not on the radiator grill. The photo below shows an example of a dust-clogged radiator grille, as well as a radiator grille after cleaning (left and right, respectively). Due to overheating, it becomes problematic to work on it - applications that used to work quickly begin to dull. And you can't sit on your knees with him.

Often, due to the large amount of dust, the fans will crackle. The fact is that the blades of the cooler during rotation can touch the dust, which has strayed into a lump, resembling a felt boot in structure. Also, as a result of constant overheating, thermal paste loses its thermal conductivity properties. Because of this, the heat from the chips (processor, video chip, chipset) is not efficiently dissipated to the heatsink, which, in turn, can lead to the failure of the chips themselves.

What is thermal paste and why is it needed

Thermal paste is a special gel-like substance that is “responsible” for transferring heat from a chip (processor, video chip, chipset) to a radiator (something like a coolant in a car's radiator). If the thermal paste dries up, then the heat transfer process deteriorates, and, in the meantime, the computer starts to get very hot.

In our work, we use only high-quality thermal paste Keratherm KP12 or Microsi (official Apple thermal paste). Due to the high thermal conductivity of these thermal pastes, the best results are achieved in reducing the temperature on the processor die and the entire system as a whole.

Is it possible to do prophylaxis right away with me?

Cleaning your MacBook or cleaning from dust with replacement of thermal paste is done right at the client's place within 20-40 minutes, depending on the computer model. Cleaning iMac computers takes longer, but can be done in a few hours. A big request to call in advance and agree with us about your visit.

Why do you need regular cleaning of MacBook from dust?

Dust - A problem with all laptops and computers with active, air-cooled. If the radiator is clogged, in heavy tasks, be it video processing or games, the chips heat up to 80-90 degrees Celsius.

At such temperatures, thermal grease loses its thermal conductivity properties. Video cards, processor, chipset and bridges get hotter, the fan picks up speed and starts humming, and chips, due to insufficient heat dissipation, burn out.

Cleaning Mac dust is required once a year, if only for the sake of your own comfort of use, not to mention significant savings in money during subsequent repairs.

In the MacBook, air is actively circulating, in which dust particles are present, no matter what clean room you are in, unless of course you work in a sterile laboratory or operating room.

Over time, it settles in layers on the fan blades, which, at high speeds, leads to an imbalance in the bearings and a crackling noise appears, as if an airplane is taking off, and most importantly, it clogs between the radiator fins, forming a barrier, preventing cold air from penetrating inside and refrigerate MacBook components.

Applications and programs that used to work quickly begin to slow down and glitch. The processor overheats and resets the operating frequency to the minimum, going into throttling (Throttling is a mechanism to protect the processor from thermal damage when overheating)

These were the most harmless signs. It is much more serious if the MacBook randomly reboots and shuts down. This happens when the temperature reaches 95-105 degrees, this is how the overheating protection works.

If you do not clean your Mac from dust in time, the video card, processor and other components that are not designed for constant operation at high temperatures may fail. According to the rules, cleaning the macbook from dust is needed once a year.

Features of the MacBook cooling system.

The air intake slot, through which cool air enters the MacBook, is located right under the screen cover. It opens when you open your laptop.

Depending on the model, year of manufacture and the size of the MacBook screen, different heat exchangers are installed in them. Basically, in Mac Pro 13 and Air (11, 12, 13), a small, one-section, with one cooler is installed, which simultaneously removes heat from the processor and the integrated video card.

MacBook pro 15 and pro 17 use a two-section, with two coolers, because high power of processors and video cards can no longer be cooled with a single heatsink.

Cleaning and replacing thermal paste yourself is highly not recommended! Without the necessary instructions, experience and tools, removing the MacBook's CO, you run a very high risk of damaging the chips and transistors on the motherboard. Inexpensive preventive cleaning of MacBook from dust in the service can quickly and very easily turn into a serious repair, using soldering or a whole replacement of the motherboard!

What is Thermopaste and why is it needed?

Thermal paste - This is a substance that consists of many components. It is used between two contacting surfaces (heat sink - chip) to remove an air gap between two surfaces.

In simple terms, it is applied to the chip (processor, video card, chipset, bridges) so that the heat they emit is better transferred to the radiator and, accordingly, per revolution, so that the cold radiator cools better, reducing the temperature of the laptop.

Thermal grease, unfortunately, is not eternal and needs to be replaced. after about a year, maximum two, it dries up, losing all heat-dissipating properties and, accordingly, the MacBook begins to warm up more. Replacement of thermal paste on a MacBook, in the "PlanetIPhone" service, takes 30 minutes.

Cleaning the MacBook keyboard.

Over time, preventive cleaning of the MacBook keyboard is necessary. Otherwise, the keys will stop pressing and will stick, due to the accumulated dirt and dust under them. This is an inevitable process. Likewise, cleaning the MacBook keyboard can be performed after spilling a small amount of liquid, avoiding repairing it. The main thing is to contact in time, with an existing malfunction, for help.

Let's summarize.

If your MacBook pro is not cleaned regularly from dust, the cooling fins become clogged and internal components fail. Cleaning your Mac is needed at least once a year so that the laptop will serve for a long time and without interruptions. In the service center "PlanetIPhone", cleaning the MacBook Air from dust and replacing the thermal paste is done in 30 minutes. You don't have to worry about her condition.

Sometimes maintenance work is required. For example, cleaning iron from dust. This is an important part of prevention. Even 10 years ago, one could find breakdowns associated with a large accumulation of dust inside the system unit or laptop. Dust envelops the contacts, after which a short circuit occurs. These issues are rare today, especially in Apple products, but no one is immune from contamination.

The cooler (fan) of the microprocessor requires special attention. Dust clogs the blades, which in turn slow down and the processor starts to heat up. The processor works worse due to overheating and eventually stops working altogether.

Today we'll show you how to clean the insides of your Macbook Air yourself. The same steps are recommended to be performed with other models of Apple laptops.

Macbook Air cleaning algorithm

  1. It is necessary to put the laptop on a soft cloth with the monitor down. Then remove the bottom cover of the Macbook Air. Pentalobe screws are used here.
  2. It is required to thoroughly clean the cover itself from dust.
  3. Disconnect and remove the battery. Wipe off the dust with a dry microfiber. You also need to wipe the bed under the battery. The contacts can be gently wiped off with an alcohol solution, and then wiped dry with cotton swabs.
  4. Use a compressor or vacuum cleaner to blow off any dust inside your Mac. If these devices are not available, a large makeup brush is recommended. It is better to shake off the dust outside (balcony) or in a room with good ventilation.
  5. It is necessary to disconnect the ribbon cable that connects the Input / Output Bord to the motherboard. It is located next to the cooler. It is recommended to use a special plastic stupor plate. If it is not there, then a plasticine spatula or a wooden manicure stick will do. There is no need to peel off the rubber band from the cooler.
  6. Next, carefully remove the SSD-drive (it can be removed easily).
  7. Remove the cooler carefully. The fan screws are not recommended to be mixed with the cover screws of the Macbook Air. Outwardly, they are similar, but they have different threads.
  8. The cooler needs to be thoroughly cleaned. If necessary, rub with alcohol. Heatsink connecting the cooler and processor. It is recommended to brush it with a toothbrush.
  9. Once again, you need to blow dust off all parts of your Macbook Air. This can be done with a makeup brush. Dust off the SSD drive too.
  10. Then you need to put all the details in place. The cogs from the cooler are at first slightly profitable until the user puts everything in place, and then they are tightened. You cannot tighten them strongly.

The Macbook Air is now clean and ready to go.

How often is it necessary to carry out the procedure

Any computer is strongly attracted to dust, which often leads to its pollution. Small particles settle on structural parts, provoking overheating and other unpleasant deviations from the norm. Also, few people will like the dust in the iMac screen. The manufacturer recommends cleaning your MacBook Air or Pro once or twice a year. The event consists in the following manipulations:

  • removal of dirt and dust particles from all surfaces of equipment, boards, fan, radiator;
  • replacement of thermal paste;
  • fan treatment.

To determine the cleaning time MacBook Pro from dust, you can install special programs.

Symptoms of the problem

The following signs indicate that it is time to clean the Mac from dust:

  • uncharacteristic heating of the case;
  • regular switching on and constant operation of fans;
  • system freeze;
  • decrease in functional speed - the monoblock begins to "dull";
  • sudden shutdowns with the possibility of re-enabling only after the device has cooled down;
  • an increase in the noise level and the appearance of extraneous sounds.

If at least one of the above symptoms was noticed, you urgently need to call the MasterSoft master at home or personally contact the service center.

Why is a large accumulation of dust dangerous?

Small specks of dust are called "killers" of the computer, since, according to statistics, it is this element that is the cause of many serious, costly breakdowns. Prolonged lack of cleaning of Mac devices from dust leads to such problems as:

  • violation of heat transfer;
  • cooler malfunctions;
  • overheating of the video card;
  • reduction of heat transfer from the radiator;
  • violation of the stable functioning of the power supply circuit;
  • failure of the motherboard.

Dust has its own electric charge, which, when particles accumulate, is transferred to the board, affecting its tracks. A thick layer of dust is characterized by serious stress values ​​that lead to destruction.
