One Room HOT. AC or HEAT NOT KEEPING Up In One Room ONLY!

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Someone recently commented on our page and asked about one room being hot and whether or not replacing the air conditioner would fix that. In this video, Joshua goes through some reasons one room may not be keeping up in heating or air conditioning making it hotter or colder than the rest of the home! Joshua's goal in this video is to hopefully save you money and give you a few things to think about before spending hundreds.

    I did have a new ac installed last year at the end of the summer. The HVAC guy dropped us from a 5 ton to a 4 ton and installed a new duct to a bedroom that is hot (about 20ft) . Now it seems to take 30-45 min to drop 1°. How likely is it my ducts are oversized now? Thanks, learning a lot from your channel.

    My property management sent a tech the second time around and that tech said there's doors to each area of the vents for the rooms. He said he just had to open it. When he opened it the room adjacent to the room not getting adequate air flow blew super hard but the problem room did not. The HVAC system is in the attic just above that room. He claims it was blowing a little better. Ironically my daughter has a dream catcher right above that vent and it's barely blowing still. He wanted to keep the other room vent open and let it get cold but I told him that's not the problem room. He told my mgmt that it was because of a dirty filter. When we change the filter every 3-4 weeks when it says it is supposed to last 3mo. Besides if the filter was the issue for that one room why is the rest of the house ice cold? The first tech told us to close the other vents to help push the air through that one room that didn't work either. And we did and it's still cold everywhere else in the house even closed. Not to mention the thermostat reads 77° and we have it set on 70° ... I understand it's hotter upstairs but the other three rooms upstairs are cold.

I have a ridge vent in the roof but the 2nd floor system never gets cold during the summer. Was going to add an exhaust fan but was told since there’s a roof vent I shouldn’t. I’m going to have a local company come and check it out since I’m replacing my 1st floor system. Any suggestions?

    This is the issue in our home we rent. The property management sent two techs out, we noticed the hose in the system was detached. The first tech came out to connect it and said our hoses are bent. Then he came again said we needed more installation and the windows were old. the air still isn't blowing as strongly to that one room even after fixing the bent hose. The second tech came and said there's a door to each vent and the one to that room was closed so he opened it and just very little air started coming through but the other room adjacent to that one was blowing super hard. Had the nerve to tell us one thing but told property management our filters were dirty and needed to be changed. No not the issue because we change these 3mo filters like every 3-4weeks and still no air. We bought a fans for that room and my daughter just deals. But we're wondering what's going to happen in the winter if not resolved.
