Default Haven't turned AC on in 6 years, should I have it checked out first?

It's a good idea to turn the power on, 24 hours before you run the AC. Gives
the crankcase heater a chance to do its thing. And, TDD has a good idea, see
if the outdoor unit is clear.

is I never use it, so not sure if I risk breaking something by turning it
on. Should I get it serviced first?


Heck, just make sure there are no sticks or tree branches stuck in the
outdoor fan and give it a try. ^_^
