There are reports of fire in ACs due to extreme heat. There is so much load on the ACs that they are failing in the scorching heat. Heat is already becoming a threat to life, and on top of that, look at a new problem, the ACs that provide cool air for relief are also becoming fireballs. Incidents of fire are increasing at various places due to ACs. Experts say that the AC should be switched off for 5-7 minutes every two hours. So that the AC gets some rest and incidents of fire are reduced. But the limit is that due to the heat, many people keep smoking cigarettes in the AC room itself, which is even more dangerous.
