These Things Can Kill Your Air Conditioner!

Monday, August 19th, 2024

An AC system is complex. There are a lot of components which all have to work together in perfect harmony to accomplish the job of cooling your home. Something going wrong with a single component can generally be resolved with repairs, even if a part such as the blower fan motor has to be replaced entirely. But there’s one component you really don’t want to damage: the compressor.

An AC compressor can’t really be repaired once something’s gone seriously wrong with it. It would have to be replaced—but it’s such an expensive component that replacing it in an older air conditioner is a waste of money. You’d be better off investing in a whole new system. What can cause harm to an AC compressor? What can you do to ensure those things won’t kill your air conditioner? Read on to find out.
