From time to time I get a real bad odor when my a/c is on. It smells like something is dead. I had my ducks cleaned and still there is a smell. Please help

check your drain pan and look for standing water, or look and see if your condensate is not trapped.

Sometimes a dirty evap coil can smell bad. Also, if the coil temperature is too high, mold growth may increase dramatically.
