How to keep your air conditioning system working: AC maintenance tips
So my AC has been making this weird buzzing noise on and off, and I’m kinda worried it’s about to give up on me. Last summer it failed right in the middle of a heatwave, and I really don’t want a repeat of that nightmare. I clean the filter sometimes, but I’m not sure what else I should be doing to keep it running without trouble. What do you all usually check or maintain to keep your system alive through the hot months?

I had the same thing happen a few months ago, and it turned out the outside unit was packed with dust and leaves. I didn’t even realize how fast all that builds up. After I cleaned it and rinsed the condenser gently, the noise disappeared. I also learned that having someone look at the refrigerant levels once a year keeps the system from overworking, which was my issue. If you’re ever unsure about what to look at, I found some pretty simple tips on Transmission fluid leak certified auto repair services — nothing complicated, just basic stuff that helps you avoid bigger repairs later.
