2.5 tons is right in the edge of being able to handle 1400 sq ft. Where do you live? It is two story or one? I think your AC might just not be about to keep up. Nothing wrong with it.

Engne OP ,

One story. I live in southeast US. Do you think it is too small given that info?

LordXenu ,

Growing up in the southeast, every AC unit is too small.

Something to consider would be a portable/window unit to compensate in high traffic areas/bedroom. Used to use that to cool a room and let the rest of the house run a bit hotter instead of fighting the outdoor heat.

Has it been working alright throughout the rest of the season? I had an HVAC system that was incorrectly wired by the installers, so it actually ran the AC and heat pump at the same time, cancelling each other out. Might not be your situation but you never know!

Engne OP ,

The air coming out of the vents is cold. In the winter the air coming out is very warm. Would that be the case if incorrectly installed? It almost feels like there isn’t “enough” air coming out of the vents maybe? If that makes sense. Just not a ton of airflow coming out

That could be part of a problem if it isn't circulating.

Make sure all the vents are open and not blocked by something inside. Switch filters if you haven't recently, and make sure they are the right kind for your unit. If you can get to your duct work, see if it is leaking anywhere as that will reduce the pressure at the vents.

If you have ceiling fans, turn them on to help out. If you aren't already, close curtains to block direct sunlight (east side in the morning, west in the evening).

I would recommend having a different company check it out since they won't be defensive about the prior work.

Brkdncr ,

You can’t “run the heat pump and a/c at the same time” because it’s a single unit. There’s a valve that slides when powered to switch the hot side with the cold side. That’s literally the only difference between a/c and a heat pump.

blinkmepacman ,

You are correct, but they probably have backup electric heat. Heat strips were being engaged along with a/c.

Welcome aboard and thank you for your service!

FYI see also https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/65260/PSA-Here-s-exactly-what-to-do-if-you-hit-the (no worries if you're cool with it, but just wanted to make sure you understood the limitations of PDS and weren't surprised by posts or comments remaining after PDS claimed to wipe everything out)

tias OP ,

Thanks. There’s been a lot of talk lately about comments not being properly deleted or Reddit restoring them after deletion. But I figure I can just run PDS multiple times over the next couple of weeks to get the ones that it didn’t catch on the first run. In any case, the “comments” section in my profile comes up empty right now.

I did do a full export through the request form on Reddit before going through with this. I had a total of 13K comments to wipe.

tias OP ,

Go figure. After three days of my profile being completely empty, there are suddenly at least 30 pages of submissions that have returned.

abff08f4813c ,

Even after you manually wiped using the links in your archive? If you just used PDS though it might be that reddit did some reindexing to make older stuff show up again, or a sub or a few going unprivate.

tias OP ,

Nah it’s 13K comments, I can’t wipe them all manually. It could be as you say that PDS doesn’t see comments in private subs. In that case I’ll need to find something that lets me feed it all the links.

abff08f4813c ,

Ah, recommend trying out https://github.com/andrewbanchich/shreddit - that one you can feed your archive and it will figure out the links on its own

Wow, I never would’ve guessed!
