What is the 3-minute rule for AC?

The 3-minute rule for AC, also known as the 5-minute rule, is a guideline to prevent compressor damage. It suggests waiting at least three minutes after turning off your AC before turning it back on. This is crucial for the longevity of your system, especially during Durham's hot spells.
