FAQ

• What temperature of the air should my AC produce?

  The temperature of the air that your system produces depends on the temperature of the air going in. The air produced should be 18 to 20 degrees lower than what enters the system. Thus, if the air entering the system is 70°, the air exiting should be about 50°-52°. This only works if the system has been on and running for at least 15 minutes. On a mild day, the air coming out could be 15°-17° cooler than what enters.
