Thankfull they had left the AC on at 85 when I got to the house.

I have been slightly amused in the past with some of the "Hot Breaker" posts, and had some free time today.

Stay out of the freezer or did you run from the freezer with the trigger held down?

[Michael R. Boyett]

No, I really couldn't quite get the details of this one figured out. There was no doubt the system had a dirty, clogged filter that was somewhat impeding the airflow bringing the temps down but I just couldn't believe to that degree (pun intended ). I took numerous readings over several minutes at a couple of registers and got pretty much the same thing. I took the filter out for a few minutes and the temps stabilized at a more believable level. It still got written up though.

You know Brian, when I first read your post I thought, "Okay, what's the big deal? Looks okay to me. You are in AZ, dontcha know". Then I thought, "Brian must have found 'something' of interest to bring this to our attention". I was soo looking forward to another of your "enlightening" finds.

Shoulda' stuck with my instincts.

Now, quit yer bitchin' and get back to work!!!

Michael,

Was the condenser over-sized?

I surprised there were no icicles hanging from that register....

[Michael R. Boyett]

No, didn't appear to be significantly over-sized....4-ton unit for a not-well insulated, 1969 single level, ~ 2,000 sf home. I should have gotten my analog thermometer to confirm that reading but I didn't think to do that. I'm just not convinced the IR thermometer was reading accurately but it worked normally at other places in the home & outside as well.

R-22 is not capable of producing those temps at registers, only at the coils when under charged.

[Paul Pendley]

Hey...Thats pretty cool compared to the temp we had to endure while at a baseball tourney in your state a few weeks ago....

Now those are some "Hot Pics".

Do you often do inspections on Venus?
