An example of something that many people forget about is the furnace filter. Many people leave those unattended for a year or longer. A very dirty filter can cause operational problems and cause the AC unit not to function nearly as well as it could. It could make the coil-over top of the unit freeze over, for example. The filter is fairly easy to change and should be swapped out regularly.

A tripped AC breaker is another example of a quick fix that a person can do himself or herself. That process would only require the individual to find the location of the breaker and then reset it. The AC unit should work just fine from that moment forward. If the breaker goes out again, the individual should perform some additional investigations because it’s likely that something else is going on.

DIYers can find out more about these AC fixes by paying close attention to the details in the video.
