high humidity with newly installed system
I recently had a geo comfort pardyne system installed. i have 3 ton
horizontol loop field with a 2.5 ton paradyne system. i have air handler in attic (no basement) with everything insulated. my issue is that my weather station in my house shows R.H. from 53-65%. I complained to the installer and he had the supply rep come out to my house with him and they went over everything. I am getting some condensate from the drain, but not sure how much itshould be. the thing cools great no problems. the unit is now short cycling. I checked the coil and there is no air bypassing around the coil, and even thought the istallers left some blown fiber glass insulation in duct there was VERY little on coil. the supply rep tells me that the "TXV" valve is always trying to balance the freon and where you used to get 20 degree temp drop across the coil you now get more like 14 degrees and so just can't de-humidify like the old a/c systems. he says I should not worry about the R.H., his instruments show it was around 54%. I have not paid the installer yet because of this and want to pay if I should but don't want to if something needs to be fixed because I will not have a "carrot" then. I've read where humidty levels above 50% can lead to mold, dust mite issues, etc. am I just being paranoid and should pay? |
