Compare these two outside units, both are considered 2 ton:
A. 3 lbs 4 oz R-22. Pressure differential is 350 high side and 300 low side.
B. 4.5 lbs R-22. Pressure differential is 300 high side and 150 low side. (Neighbor)
Unit B is physically 1/3 larger than unit A.
Which unit will provide cooler and dryer "conditioned" air more economically?
Premise: My townhome apartment has unit A. The humidity will not go below 62% and on a sunny day the inside temp goes up 5 degrees and the unit runs constantly from 10:00 in the morning until 3:00 AM the next morning to pull down that 5 degree climb.
The apartment maintenance crew says the gauge pressures are good and that a temp of 55 degrees at the inside vents is acceptable.
I aimed a water mist at our unit during the heat of the day and my humidity dropped to 55% after 3 days of water mist during the hottest part of the day.
Give me ammo to approach management about how insufficient our compressor unit is.
