The failure of my air conditioning system. Observed smoke coming out of the vents. Turned air conditioning system offbriefly. When I turned the system on again it no longer worked. The system was putting out warm air. I take it to be repaired and it only worked a few days. The result is no air condition system, inoperative. I have put spent so much money to get the system fixed.
