Is the A/C yours? Did you buy it? If you are running the A/C while the windows are open, even a couple of inches, you are making that machine work harder for no reason. It's a gross misuse of the item. You can't have it both ways:A/C and fresh air. Pick one. When you want fresh air, turn off your A/C. Once you have aired out your apartments, close the windows and and put the A/C back on. My former tenants did the same thing. When they used up all the cooling agent within a month, after it being freshly charged, they needed to pay for it out of their own pockets. When their cntral A/C started having trouble, the HVAC tech determined it was from their misuse, the tenants were ordered by a judge that they were responsible for the cost of the repair which amounted to about $700.00.
