Today we visited because the air conditioning system was not cooling the home. We discovered the outside fan was not working. The dual run capacitor failed and was turning on the compressor, but not the outdoor fan motor. Upon inspection we learned this part had been replaced at least once before. This is odd because the unit is only four years old. James discovered why the capacitor failed, at least twice and why there is mold growth in the air handler cabinet. The unit is a three ton system, but the return is only a 20x20, which does not move enough air for a 3-ton system. The faulty capacitor was replaced and the unit performance was verified to be cooling. James put together a few different choices for Danielle to fix the airflow and address the air quality issue.
