We get a/c serviced once a year like a check up.

We have two window units in case of hurricane they can buy a generator and stay cool.

Our last tenants had a allergen thick matter with dog hair filter that let zero air in, had grass taller than her kids and dog hair stuck to the intake unit.

She would crank it down to 65. I explained heat index vs numerical temp. 74 was good for 108 heat index.

In the end the repair took 3 days order parts and install after they did assessments it was an expansion valve.

At the annual check up they noticed it was at 7.5 and needed to be added up to meet (charged freon?) to 12.

This was simple and cost 106.00

The company is certified to work on our brand ac unit.

Gave wonderful advice such as don't buy a huge ac unit because it will produce so much condensation and humidity that your wood floors will warp.

also started dropping off the monthly filters instead of letting her use the "3month filters" those were clogged and full of dust and hair.
