[QUOTE="HoLeChit, post: 4084637, member: 35036"] So Saturday night I noticed that my indoor temp was higher than usual before going to bed. I typically keep the house at 74-75ish during the day, and then once the sun sets we get the temp dropped down to 65 for bedtime until about 530 in the morning. The thermostat was telling me it was at 74 when it normally is down to about 68-70 by bedtime. I didn’t think much of the temp, it’s been so hot that I just figured it’s struggling to keep up. But when I woke up in the morning on Sunday, it was 75 in the house. AC runs, sounds like the compressor is kicking on, fan is working, but it’s just blowing warm air. I last cleaned the unit this spring, and change out all the filters regularly. Cleaned it again yesterday, and checked the lines going into the house both the high pressure and low pressure lines felt lukewarm/ambient temp to me, which is odd, I could have sworn one is usually hot and one is cold. I shut off the AC yesterday morning, thinking maybe something froze up. Im about to be turning it back on, and I worry that it wasn’t froze up, it’s just broken. It’s an older unit, manufactured in 1989. If it doesn’t come back on blowing cold air… any advice on troubleshooting? Suggestions on a HVAC company to come look at this in Edmond? Also, what’s a new unit costing these days? I’m not sure, but I think this is a 3 ton unit. [ATTACH type="full"]397580[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
