The 3-minute rule is crucial for protecting your AC's compressor. It means waiting at least three minutes after the unit turns off before restarting it. This allows internal pressures to equalize. Restarting too soon can cause damage and lead to expensive repairs. We always follow this procedure.
Dirty air filters are a frequent cause of AC issues. They restrict airflow, making the system work harder and potentially freeze. Refrigerant leaks are another common problem. Issues with the fan motor or capacitor can also occur. Regular filter changes are key.
