Cooling

At our last AC service I asked what speed the air handler's fan was set to and they told me "Medium."

They'd moved it down from "High" when they installed our spiffy new non-leaking ducts and the main bedroom has had abysmal air flow ever since.

This has pissed us off since the install because, despite dumping half the cooled air into the attic, the bedroom was never uncomfortable with the old duct work.  Even with the door closed

The manager/owner's only suggestion was to leave the door open or to get an additional air return installed in the bedroom.

I don't see where they'd put it, and I'm not rearranging the stuff I have against the walls to suit this additional charge to fix what I feel they broke.

In the meantime, I have baby gates over the bedroom door to keep Beeper and Shadow separated.

I've also had a fan on the floor blowing into the bedroom, hoping to pull the correct temperature air from the rest of the house into the bedroom.  Which does work, but the bedroom is always closer to the outside temp than the rest of the house.  Usually warmer.

Today, thinking about that air return idea, I turned the fan around.

That little extra flow out of the room has really helped air come out of the duct and keep it at the proper temp.  Though I fretted a but because that triggered the AC to run more often for a little while as things in the bedroom shed heat.

Eyes crossed that this will work.
