AC not working right since yesterday

Post image

And we work remotely 😭

Still blows out air but it's not cool/cold. Waiting for our AC guy (we rent, and there's been so many AC issues as long as we've lived here). Hopefully it'll be a quick fix when he comes and we won't have to wait for a part to come in the mail or something.

This is with all the shades and windows closed. We're in SoCal. Thank goodness this didn't happen when it was in the 100°Fs last week.

My inside temp is 76 during the day and 74 at night.

I'm not seeing a problem.

The AC's on 74, the house temp is 84.

If you’re still waiting on the ac guy, make sure there’s water coming out of the drip outside. Sometimes if that pipe gets clogged it will set off a float switch that shuts off the compressor. You can clear the line and turn the ac on and back off and it will reset.

Could this have anything to do with it?

I mean, I never let any type of plants grow on my units, but I doubt that’s the cause

I moved it just in case. It died and fell on it. Thank you!

Should be a pvc pipe coming out somewhere in the wall. It will just be an open pipe and you shouldn’t likely have any other anywhere just open ended

The actual temperature in the house is 84 despite set-point being 74

The indoor temp is 84°, 74 is just what it is set to.

The problem is you're a lizard person! Jk but that'd be too hot for me

u/TheReever 22h ago

It’s 84 degrees inside his house, and because yours is set to 76, you can’t see an issue? 

What a braindead take.

He’s just misreading the screenshot. And to be completely fair, I was misreading it too until I read the comments.

If you’re reading comprehension is so bad you can’t decipher what “indoor temp” means, then maybe if you “don’t see a problem” keep quiet and move on.

Damn, I had a shitty Monday but I’m glad it wasn’t as bad as yours. Hope you have a better day tomorrow.

Be a better day for everyone when you just stop talking.

That make you feel big and smart? Boasting about your illiteracy and defending braindead takes? Keep crying about it you big baby.

u/milkypeas 22h ago

I had no problem reading it. however, I do distinctly dislike assholes.

u/TheReever 21h ago

What a coincidence, so do I. So when someone with no reading comprehension makes a braindead statement when he could have kept his mouth shut, I’m more than happy to chime in.

You aren't even replying to the same person dumbass lmao

u/TheReever 21h ago

No shit, moron, it’s called usernames and reading comprehension. 

Any dumbass replying is getting the same treatment for the same level of stupidity exhibited. Want it to stop? Shut your mouth.

I'm on mobile. Had to click the image to see the whole thing. 74° was the only thing shown. I thought the same. Just like OP's AC, you need to chill.

u/TheReever 22h ago

You can see 84 right there on the dial. So go cry about it some more.

u/Wakkichewy 21h ago

I'm gonna reply to a third comment of yours to reiterate that you have a massive ager issue and need to work on that

u/TheReever 21h ago

Lmao “ager”. Thanks for reiterating my point on illiteracy and lack of comprehension. 

Keep replying idiot. You’ll figure it out one day…..maybe.

u/Wakkichewy 20h ago

And you pointing out a simple spelling mistake instead of acknowledging what people are telling you just proves my point that you're an angry little child lmao whether you actually are a child or just a grown ass baby lmao I'll keep replying, don't worry 😉
