Irving resident Linda Lindsey unfortunately knows what it's like to lose her A/C in these conditions. In June, her 18-year-old air conditioning unit gave out and with a HUD grant program through the city of Irving, got a new one for free and now can relax with her dog Oreo without breaking a sweat. But not everyone can qualify for that specific program.
CBS 11 news spoke with Cool Experts AC on what you can do now to prevent your A/C unit from breaking down. "I would definitely recommend people changing out their filters at least once a month," said co-owner Gus Gonzalez, If there's a failure or low on freon, they can catch that before we get those triple digits.""Everyone is having failures, everyone needs help so our phones have just been ringing non-stop," said Co-Owner Omar Zazay.
