Every year the demand for AC starts increasing during the summer season. While air conditioner has become a necessity, on the other hand the news of AC bursting every year is heart-wrenching. Even though only a few cases of AC blast are reported every year, there can be a risk of injury or even death due to an AC blast. In such a situation, people who have AC installed in their house or those who are thinking of getting AC installed should know why ACs start bursting and how can it be avoided?

Why do ACs start exploding?

The biggest reason for air conditioner bursting is when the pressure in the compressor starts increasing. Apart from this, when the AC continues to run continuously for hours without stopping, problems like overheating, dust accumulation on the coil in the outdoor unit, gas leakage, electrical fault etc. start occurring. If gas is leaking and at the same time there is a sparking problem in the AC, then the risk of fire or explosion can increase. Not only this, wiring and voltage fluctuation can also cause the AC to explode. Due to all these reasons, there can be a risk of blast in AC.

How to protect AC from exploding?

By taking some precautions, you can reduce this risk to a great extent.

• The first thing to do is to get the AC serviced every 6 months.
• During servicing, get it checked that the gas is not leaking.
• Keep the filter and coil clean.
• wiring
• Voltage Fluctuation
• Apart from this, if servicing is not done properly i.e. even small carelessness during service can cause a blast.
