Small issues can be fixed without calling a technician only. Here are some of the most common problems that can easily be resolved all by yourself:
Check the Thermostat Settings
Always make sure that the thermostat is on fan auto and ac cool. Sometimes incorrect settings of the thermostat can lead you to believe that your air conditioner is malfunctioning. In reality, there is nothing wrong with the air conditioner, it’s just the thermostat.
Check Air Filter
Another most common issue is air filter maintenance. It is very necessary to change and clean the air filter of your unit regularly and must be properly maintained. A clogged or dirty filter can result in several serious air restrictions while making the air conditioning unit freezing up.
Clean Your Outdoor A/C Unit
Most of us avoid cleaning the outdoor A/C unit, which results in the problems later. The outdoor unit and its surrounding should be cleaned regularly and clear of any type of obstructions like grass, plants, and other stuff to ensure that the refrigerant is cooled down efficiently. It can easily be done by AC coil cleaner.
