Air Conditioner Maintenance - Do I Need to Cover My Air Conditioner in the Winter? 

Video as efficient and to-the-point. Thank you

Just place a large piece of plywood on top and hold down with 2 cinder blocks!!!!

Just throw the stick at it! I literally giggled out loud. Worth watching the video for that! lol

As always , another exceptional and educational video. TexasLove brother. Keep up the great 👍 work for sure…

Thank you! I did find this helpful.

I ordered the Amazon cover. The hooks don't fit easily into the unit's vents (a Rheem), but I managed to attach them 'sideways.' I might put a large rock on top because it gets very windy in winter (Northeast.) All in all, it looks pretty good. Thanks for the suggestion.

I learned something.

Is the mesh cover that you didn't use OK to have on the unit all year round?

Will an a/c last longer if protected from elements as opposed to sitting out under the sun all summer? (i.e. ours is under a covered deck)

Can you use the mesh one during the summer or should you just get plywood
