air conditioner running timeframe
I have my home facing north and south plus double paned windows and tint
on windows...home is 1088 sq ft, two rooms with high ceilings have fans...and use standing fan to circulate air. i have been in the home three years dont use the heater at all. I am in Arizona. I have my thermo set at 78, any rooms not use doors closed.windows shades closed...two have vents closed. I timed my air it runs for 15/20 mins and 20/25 mins long. Is this a problem w my air? -- |

Typically an AC is sized so that it runs most of the time during the hottest hours of the very hottest days. |

I have them come out yearly to check it just for the summers coming up because I don't use the heat at all... so in essence I have a good air conditioner. -- |

As others have posted, running 90 - 100% of the time on the hottest day is usually what the design is set for, you are running about half the time on a very hot day, so that is great.
