killercow wrote:OP I know the feeling. Actually ever since the beginning of last year I started servicing my own AC units. I just paid very close attention to the guys the last three times they serviced and replicated what they did. The first time I did it on my own, I took much longer than the average time, but I got through and ever since had no issues.
I guess if you do not think you'll remember everything that you observe, maybe video the guys and rewatch video when servicing. Disassembling the units for servicing tends to be the trickiest aspect of it I guess. Nevertheless OP hope you gt

Ben_spanna wrote:leaking ac unit is mostly due to a clogged drip tray or clogged water line that goes outside,,, or if youre unit is low on gas and your coils constantly freeze over and get iced up. Cleaning a drip tray and clearing the line is easy for a DIY, but gassing your unit will require a service from your ac people.

No No No .. You are incorrect
The fan is difficult . That is a different job.
We hire a company to take down the extractor fan and that has lots soot, cobweb and sometimes a dead rat or pigeon etc.
They charge about $300 - $700 depending on the size and weight of the rat or pigeon .

The company charges $300 but we usually have a Vene doing that job for about $50.
Times are a changing .

If you know your way around ti and its regularly maintained, it is.
Have a contact # for the vene?
I remember giving some guys a quote and they told me I wicked, and my price too high. Have another person in the business that does thier own at a lower price. One was a coworker and we came in to servce the ac at his work place. He asked what the f**k we doing? Well you know I handle their ac units at home now.
