said by TooHotToday :
Yesterday it was 110 outside and 83 inside. We have the AC set to stay at 75. I know that 83 isnt that much higher, but it feels really hot inside!
I don't know if it would be better to set the system to a lower temp like 70 and then maybe it will get to 75? No it won't. If the system can't get the temperature lower than 83, setting the thermostat any lower will do absolutely nothing.
There's a few possibilities here:
1- system could be undersized for the house
2- house could be poorly insulated, or attic space may need better ventilation
3- something still wrong with the system |
