Common Causes of Air Conditioner Failure
Sometimes, it feels like air conditioners have a mind of their own, right? They can go on strike for various reasons during those blistering days. Some common culprits include fan issues, frozen evaporator coils, clogged filters, low refrigerant, lack of airflow, and even those sneaky closed vents and ducts! Oh, and let's not forget about that old and outdated system that might be showing signs of rebellion. The good news is, many of these issues can be prevented with regular maintenance. So, make sure to give your AC some TLC every now and then. Need a new filter? We’ve got one for nearly every system available for quick, free shipping in our filter shop.
