I am having a problem with A/C unit at home. WHen I cut it on it will
come on and cool the house, but the thermostat temp does not go down
causing the unit to run contstanly. Any ideas what the problem is????


Thanks


Is the thermostat located where the cool air can reach it?
Do you have a TV, or other heat producing item under, or close to, the
thermostat?

If the thermostat doesn't go down with the room temp, then something
is wrong with the thermostat. If it's electronic, try removing the
batteries for an hour, make sure the batteries are good, and then
retry. Some also have a reset button accessible from the back, etc.
