I just had a new AC/Heat pump installed last week. The company has been out twice since the install. First time was because a factory defect in the indoor coil. That was replaced and all seemed fine. Had them out today because my split temps were falling compared to last night when the new coil was installed. All their readings are testing within spec so I'm gonna let it ride for the time being.
Here is next dilemma, the unit is short cycling especially in the evening. Outdoor temps have cooled (its about 70* outside right now) house T-stat is set at 74. The AC is coming on and reaching set temp 4- 5 min and shutting off. 5 min being off, AC comes back on. On for 5 off for 5. All evening long. I got two other digital thermometers reading 73. House T-stat shows 74. I finally turned off the AC for now because I'm tired of hearing it.
The T-stat is a Honeywell 8000 programmable. Anything I can check before I bug the HVAC company again?
