    the box is so the air does not not bounce back up into the coil, by blocking it off you increase static pressure . it will cause blower motor to burn out prematurely .hvac for 39 years as installer. absolutely never ever do, this, if you do this the customer will be replacing air handler in half the time as it should last.

    Good fix. I did the same to my air duct system. I used duct butter to fill the small gaps or air duct tape.
  • @rhondaburrell3267
    It took me about 20 minutes to install it on my own. As long as you can lift it out the box and up into position you’re good. I did have to break the box to get it out as it was a snug fit. I followed the installation video on you tube which was a big help. I added this to support central air in my house that was struggling upstairs because of my house design. Lovely unit. Very quiet youtube.com/post/Ugkx_hHgTlzH3uk31Fe2RVS3xEbXHGaN_… and looks sharp. Had it in a couple of weeks and so far so good. It’s cooling a bedroom about 25ft X 15 no problem at all.

    I have identical furnace. I put a barrier (scoop) to prevent the air flow going down to the deep dead space. It really works. I set the thermostat to 71F inside the house and it is cold now compare when it doesn’t have the scoop. 👍

    Also learn about adjusting your air handler blower speed (you'll need the manual). General Guidelines: 425 to 450 CFM per Ton (large number of supply ducts, long duct runs, cathedral ceilings, large open rooms) 400 CFM per Ton (STANDARD / default) 325 to 350 CFM per Ton (for high humidity areas like Florida, when the AC is sized too large, turning off and on too often and/or not dehumidifying well) And make sure you ducts are not leaking in the attic due to poor or degraded connections. There are many reasons for a weak blower including malfunctions of the blower motor, dirty blower, dirty evaporator coil, dirty air filter, air filter too restrictive (over Merv 8), etc. etc. An inspection by an HVAC expert is advised. Maintenance on your AC system should be performed by an HVAC expert once a year when the AC is used in the summer only and twice a year when the AC is used year-round. Note: It's best to consult with an HVAC expert, especially if you don't really know what you're doing. Remember, thoroughly research and learn first, then act. Otherwise, consult with an expert.

    BIG THANKS!!! Saved me $$$$$ GREAT EXPLANATION DEF WORTH WATCHING N SAVING TIME N $$$$ KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!! 😊❤
  • @2-old-Forthischet
    I saw a video by a commercial air conditioning tech years ago. He said that most central air setups actually don't have enough return air capacity. My condo is two stories with the only return air vent on the first floor and the unit is on the second floor, so I added three more return air vents just under the AC unit on the second floor. The original unit which was about 50 years old, was still working, but now working a lot more efficiently. Last year, I had the whole system changed out and wow, this new unit really cools down the condo very efficiently! On triple digit days, I have the thermostat set for 80 degrees and it is really comfortable.
  • @roberthatcher6308
    Overall I liked the fix, but to label your YouTube "How to make your AC Blow stronger and faster and Colder..." is somewhat inaccurate sir. You fixed a VERY unusual designed AC unit which does not represent the vast majority.
  • Excellent video, and a labor of love. You can roll up some bat insulation and stuff it in those gaps.
  • @ggv69340
    Hi thanks for the info my home. Is a high ceiling house before my warranty ended they replace the motor and it’s located in the roof but I have very little flow how can I get more flow what motor do I need I’m willing to to bug a stronger motor
  • @allykatt940
    u gotta take readings all the way across and get an average. cant just use one spot. i know for gas u gotta be up at least 16 " off the ground. check static pressure
  • Avoid stratification. Get deflectors to have it shoot up into room. Cool air will then naturally fall and mix the air better.
