so a local ac guy came out and said he couldnt test the pressure without the unit running. Is that true? Kind of made sense but then how do you know if its the charge or a faulty low pressure switch?
At least he didnt charge for the visit.

At least $0.00 for the visit

No, it’s not.
He should’ve been able to check if there was standing pressure in the system and if the pressure switch was open or closed.
You’ll still have to have a tech check the unit.
He had nothing to say about why the unit wasn’t working?
