Re: 3 year old house will not stay cool
If it was really 110 outside, and you could maintain 83 inside it may be a case of the unit doing all it was designed to do. Where I live the cooling design temp is around 72 at 97 degrees outside. You do not want to oversize an AC or else it will not run long enough to dehumidify most days. 25 degrees or so is about all you usually get between indoor and outdoor temp for home comfort cooling. For those with a technical bent »www.proctoreng.com/articles/bigger.html will explain a little of the how to size an AC. The short of it is you don't size for the worst case scenario.
