6 POSSIBLE REASONS WHY YOUR AIR CONDITIONER RUNS CONSTANTLY
On a normal summer day, you can expect your air conditioner to run somewhere around 15 minutes during every cooling cycle. But if your cooling cycles are lasting 30 minutes, an hour, or all day long, there’s a good chance that something is amiss with your system. Today we’re going to talk about what might be happening when your air conditioner runs constantly and what can be done to solve the problem!

There are two main issues with your air conditioner running more often than it should. The first problem is that it’s a big waste of energy. The more often your air conditioner runs, the more energy it will consume and the higher your utility bills will be.

A new air conditioner will not only have shorter cooling cycles but will also consume much less energy.
