I can assure you that the blades are probably a mess .... which is also affecting the units efficiency.

Getting at the fan blades is not tremendously difficult but there (at least on my unit) was a million & one screws to be found to get there.

As I do not know your unit, nor am I a trained tech you can go on-line and search your specific model # and download the manual ...... or .... as I did called on a local firm (Foley) to service it.

In my case, we bought a condo and had no idea when the last servicing took place so we had it professionally done (we have two units) ..... as it turns out - good call as there was a recall on my particular unit and the notable dust/grime build up on the fan blades.
