I have central air and I live 50 miles north of NYC. For the last week it has been over 90 degrees in the afternoons. I have my thermostat set for 74 degrees for the peak period (Noon - 5 PM). It is set at 76 for the prior period (6am - noon).
My problem is this:
My air conditioner can not drive down the temp. on the thermostat lower than
76 during this hot spell. (I had no probs. in cooler weather). I bought my house 5 years ago and the unit was here. I think it is 10 years old. I have never had it serviced and I think it has always been like this.Does anyone think that this is a problem? Is this normal? What should I do?
TIA Mark
