Failed run capacitors in summer heat
Why it happens here
Capacitors store energy to start the compressor and fan. In Furman, where summer temperatures regularly exceed 90 degrees, they fail faster. When a capacitor goes, the AC will not start or blows warm air.
Our approach
We carry run and start capacitors for all major brands on every truck. We test the capacitor with a multimeter and replace it if it is weak. The job takes under an hour, and we verify the system is cooling before we leave.
