--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After comming back today from my second Sons grad for grade 12 today, I got nabbed my the widow lady next door to have a peek at her "not cold" window a/c.
Cold control was set on the warmest and the air vent control was wide open = very little compressor running and some of the cold air gets blown outside threw the open vent :(
Checked for sweating on the evap coils and reset the controls and all seems to be ok :)
Why do soooooooooooooooo many people mess up those controls??
Q - Will my air conditioner get colder if I open the air vent?
A - No, this opens air door to the outside and actually will allow cold air to escape to the outside making it harder for the a/c to cool your room!
