[QUOTE="NikatKimber, post: 2776342, member: 423"] This is my understanding as well. A slightly undersized unit runs longer; but this is typically a good thing as the A/C does two things: cool the air, and remove moisture (lower humidity). An oversized unit will cool the air quickly, but not remove as much moisture, resulting in the house not feeling as comfortable as an undersized unit running longer. My guess is that something is wrong with the unit (too much or too little freon, heat exchangers (evap or condenser) blocked, etc); or poor insulation; or something other than the A/C like the other appliances or such.
