- Your Air Conditioner Is Not Turning On
You have to make sure to check everything related to your machine’s power. Check the plugs; is it in the socket? How about the wires? Are they in good condition (link: https://www.nrel.gov/docs/fy13osti/56283.pdf) without any tear? If you are not sure what the problem is despite checking everything, don’t hesitate to call the experts!
- Some Unusual Sounds Are Coming from The Machine
Look for anything solid that might have stuck in the fan while the AC is still off. Perhaps try to listen to it more to identify a solid object that makes those sounds, or just water being sucked and used to humidify the atmosphere. If it sounds solid, and you could not open the machine alone, call mechanics for it!
- The Breeze Feels Not Cool Enough
Try first to check the cooling machine’s filters. If there are bags of dust and dirt, you can clean them up! Check your thermostat and crank your machine’s maximum cooling temperature, then try to compare it from before. If it is lower than usual, even though you cleaned the filters and noticed that the machine needs to exert more effort to cool the atmosphere, call the experts!
