Comments:

7.0 AC units are located on the right side of the house.

7.1 The AC system was not tested for proper operation due to the outside air temperature was 65 degrees or less during the past 24 hour period.. According to AC manufacturers, running the AC compressor while the oil inside the compressor is cold can result in damage to the valves and cause irreparable scoring damage to the compressor. Additionally, accurate test results are not possible below this temperature.

The AC should be tested when the outside temperature has been above 65 degrees for 24 hours. Ensure that there is a 14 to 20 degree temperature drop. This temperature drop is measured by comparing supply duct and return air duct temperatures. Have a qualified HVAC technician inspect the system, add cooling fluid if necessary and ensure that the temperature drop is appropriate.

7.3 See heating section for discussion and recommendations.
