OK so as part of my getting healthier in 2022.....
I'm prone to pneumonia due to the humid environment and my pulmonologist advised me to have a professional recheck my home's AC system. As he feels AC is probably one of the most overlooked items on the quarterly checklist. Sure enough, the AC guys had a look-see and told me that the wall units are absolutely filthy. Geez, I just had them fully serviced less than a year ago, and only use these things on the weekends. The bad news is that there are no replacement parts for these older units 30-year-old units, and the wall units along with the exterior compressor would have to be changed out as a set. That would cost $5,000 to $6,000 USD. I just told them to remove the wall units, compressor, etc., and dispose of them. Gonna be a hot summer this year.
So check your home AC systems for mold, etc. when you have the time to do so. Might save you or your loved ones' life.
