Instructions from the Expert:

I'd be happy to answer any questions, but I can't help you with appliances or H&AC service and repair, even if the experts who can are maxed out. You'll get an answer quicker if you wait for/ask an expert with a service and repair (as opposed to design) background.

It'd be helpful to know if this is a new installation (In a new home or an  older home?), a new problem in an existing installation, etc. If you're going to ask about the size of your AC, tell me where you live: Required AC capacity depends on how hot it gets, you know.

Many thanks.

I can't help you if your whatsis won't work, people (Especially if it's a refrigerator); I have no experience with appliances, and I haven't been involved with H&AC service and repair since March 08, 1996 (Thank the Lord); I reject appliance questions and H&AC "Service and Repair" questions (about 18 a week), so if you want to know why your whatsis isn't working like it used to, ask someone else. I delete answers that are unread after one week (about three a month). If you have questions about how big a unit you need, if one room's warmer than the others, if you want an opinion on bids received, etc. just ask. Do visit askweldin.com, there's a lot of good information on sizing, ductwork, efficiency, as well as some techniques accomplished DIY-ers can use to troubleshoot and improve their H&AC. Finally, I want to thank all of the kind, serious people whom I meet here; I enjoy working with you.
