Lid Keeps Air Conditioner Clean FARM HOME Miscellaneous After removing half a wheelbarrow full of leaves needles and other debris from his air conditioning unit one spring Jack Smith decided there had to be a way to keep the trash out in the fall and winter
He designed a simple cover out of metal flashing used for roofing and bent it down over the backside of the top of the air conditioner Metal screws hold it in place He turned the conditioner on to see how far it blew the top open and secured the front of the flashing to the front of the conditioner with a strong cord
That stops the cover from going backwards in a strong wind Smith explains The flashing covers the air conditioner when it s not running and is light enough to lift up when the fan kicks on
It s worked great for two years Smith says It keeps the inside of the air conditioner completely clean I haven t had to clean it out at all
Smith a retired pastor plans to patent his idea and is willing to talk to anyone interested in manufacturing it
