In Hawaii, our AC systems take a beating. Salty air, wind, rain, and everyday use can all take a toll over time.
When your AC stops working, it’s normal to get frustrated.
But before you start shopping for a new system, there are a few things you can check first.
Check your fuses and breakers.
Try turning the breaker off for about 15 minutes, then turn the power back on.
If it still doesn’t work, head to the mini-split on the wall and check the air temperature.
If your unit is blowing air but not cooling the room, it may just need a cleaning.
And if that doesn’t solve the problem, calling a certified technician is the next best step.
Sometimes the issue is minor. Sometimes it’s more serious.
The important thing is to take the time to understand your options before making a big purchase.
