Confront air conditioning price (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

accost

'confront' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'air conditioning price' is the wordplay.
'air conditioning' becomes 'ac'.
'price' becomes 'cost' ('cost' can be a synonym of 'price').
'ac'+'cost'='ACCOST'

(Other definitions for accost that I've seen before include "Make bold approach to" , "Stop and pester" , "Come boldly up to" , "Tackle" , "Approach and address boldly" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
