    My hvac guy told me to basically put a cap of bleach in it every time I change my filter and he recommended for where I live to change my filter every month.

    Our instruction manual state use 1 cup of vinegar. Vinegar is all I’ll use.

    Or you can use one cup of white vinegar once a month.

    I’ve been getting condensation on my AC lines and even all the way to the duct work. My AC company checked it and said that everything is fine and this is normal. My AC lines on the inside of the house have been dripping water. Is this normal ?

    Our furnace is linking water underneath. The air conditioner man came out. He told us that we needed a water pump. He told us. Instead of letting water run down the pipe. Like it was doing. He will connect the pipe fm furnace. Run pipe outside the furnace. Run it into the bathroom. So it can be drained into our toilet. I do not lk that idea. Will this mess up my plumping? Thanks

    Bleach is very bad for your evaporator coil, those fumes will work their way up into your evaporator coil and that is a very expensive problem to fix, please don’t do this. Use an enzyme based condensate treatment.

    Vinegar! Gasses from bleach will reverse and come back up where the bleach was poured in.
