# Homeowner Tip: Save on AC Repairs This Summer

Hunter Munch | NWA Realtor on Instagram: "🚨 Homeowner tip that could save you on a 95° day:

Keep a spare AC capacitor at your house.

Capacitors are one of the most common AC failures during the summer, and the part itself can cost around $10-$40.

When yours goes out, though? You could be stuck waiting for an HVAC company during their busiest time of the year—and paying hundreds for the service call.

Find the correct µF rating and voltage for your unit, order a spare, and throw it on a shelf.

$20 sitting in your garage could be the difference between ❄️ 72° and 🥵 85° inside.

Cheap part. Expensive problem. Be prepared.

⚠️ Capacitors can hold a dangerous electrical charge. If you don’t know how to safely diagnose and replace one, leave the installation to a professional.
