Heat Pump Not Reaching Heat Setting
Mine pulled something similiar a couple weeks ago. I had it set on 60 and
the temp inside was 52. I turned it off at the thermostat, then turned the power to the outdoor unit off at the breaker panel for one minute. Then turned the breaker back on, and reset the thermostat. It's been fine ever since. I did call the man who installed it. He's gonna come look at it. s wrote in message ... I have a fairly new (less than 6 mos.) Lennox CBX32MV Signatue Elite 4- ton heat pump. For the last 2 days, the temp around DC has dropped below 30 degrees F. My heat setting is at 70 degrees but the thermostat never shows the actual room temp go higher than 65.5 degrees. The thermostat says "auxiliary heat on" but I don't feel any toasty warm electric heat air coming out of the registers - just the usual heat pump ambient air. Is there something wrong with my heat pump, or is 70 degrees just impossible to attain if the outside air is below 30 degrees? Anything I can tweak without calling for repairs or voiding the warranty? Thanks for any insight. |
