Bengaluru summers put real strain on air conditioners that haven't been serviced since last year. Here are five signs it's time to book a checkup before the heat peaks.
Weak or warm airflow, unusual noises during startup, a musty smell when the AC kicks in, visible water leakage near the indoor unit, and higher-than-usual electricity bills are all early indicators of a unit that needs attention. Catching these early usually means a simple service call instead of an emergency repair mid-summer.
