cold
Down-n-OUT asked:


The air conditioner in my home seems to be blowing cold air, it feels cold anyway. But our thermometer doesn’t get below 80 or higher. I checked the filter and replaced it but that does not do anything. Can anyone clue me in on anything?

If AC ws working fyn previously there seems to b sumthing wrong with the compressor.
Otherwise u may b using a low capacity AC for a large room.
If the room is of appropriate size try closing all the doors and windows…

I use 2 or 3 thermometers. If it feels cold, maybe it is correct and the gauge you used is busted.
Also, how large is your house? How many BTU’s is the a/c unit?
If you are trying to cool a 1800 sq. ft. house with 5,000 btu’s, forget it. It will take days to change the temp.

Check for any “leaks”(open;doors,windows,pet doors etc.)
if you’re air-tight the humidity may be to high .
dry the interior air with a de-humidifier.
that should help in any case.
if not , a qualified heating & refridgeration person is called for.

the t-stat is the control if your system cant get to the temp you want you need to call a tech could be any number or reasons

Go ahead and shut the doors and windows before you turn on the air conditioner! If you are blowing cold air out your vents, then is should be able to cool the house unless you have so much air leakage into your house that you basically have open doors and windows. Or else you have no insulation in the house and again the heat gain is greater then the capacity of the A/C to overcome.

if your ac is working fine before then probably your thermostat setting is too high. or you have a defective thermostat.

Hi, you may like to check this out.

Most likely you have a choked fan coil or a choked blower. This results in weak airflow, the filters are only the first layer. The fan coil is the main thing. As the wind doesn’t blow far, it has difficulty cooling the space down. Can you feel strong wind 2 meters from the blower?

The coldness you felt should be at least a good 14′C to 16′C, if it is 18′C or higher, it will take donkey years to cool your room down. For more details, visit

either you have a clogged indoor coil its the thing behind your filter get you a wire brush and clean really good or you may have a fan motor bad on your outdoor unit or possibly your have a problem with your refrigerant levels feel the big pipe going into your indoor unit (where your filter goes
) if it is cold then you dont have a problem with your refrigerant so try cleaning the coil first then not go see if the big fan outside is pulling hot air out
