Is a Dead Compressor the End of the Line for an AC?

Monday, August 22nd, 2022

You’ve likely heard this bit of conventional wisdom about the compressor in an air conditioning system:

There are several options a homeowner can consider when the compressor fails, and a complete replacement isn’t always the best. Below we’ll look at the variables involved in what to do when you’ve got an AC with a dead compressor.
