We do landscaping now too, apparently 🌿🔧
These units were fighting for their lives against jungles of overgrown vegetation. Vines, grass, bushes — you name it, we cleared it. Wasn't exactly in the job description, but somebody's gotta do it.
Here's why it matters: most common units need 18-24 inches of clearance from vegetation and landscaping. Crowd that space and you're choking off airflow — same problem as a dirty coil, just caused by nature instead of dirt.
It's hard on the equipment (reduced airflow, more strain, shorter lifespan) and hard on us (nobody warned us we'd need a machete to access the service panels.)
Give your unit some breathing room. Your AC isn't trying to blend into the landscaping.
