🛠️ What Is a 5-2-1 Hard Start Kit?
A 5-2-1 hard start kit is an HVAC upgrade that helps your air conditioner’s compressor start more efficiently, using a powerful start capacitor and a potential relay. These kits are designed to reduce stress on your compressor, improve startup performance, and lower the risk of compressor failure — especially helpful for older AC units or systems running on marginal power.

Why Install a Hard Start Kit?
A hard start kit helps your air conditioner start faster and with less electrical stress. It's especially useful for older units or homes with weak electrical service. The 5-2-1 kit (which includes a start capacitor and potential relay) gives your compressor the boost it needs to start smoothly, reducing wear and energy consumption.
