New home A/C not cooling
I bought a new three level townhome with around 2300 sqft of living space.
The problem with the a/c that it is not cooling. I switched it on for first time yesterday but even after being on for 4 hours there was no effect on temperature. The vents are thorwing cool air but the draft is very weak.
I looked in the main duct where the fan and filter are there and saw some condensation on it so I think the compressor is working out fine.
I didn't see anything that would control the flow of air between levels. I believe they are called dampers. Can just the dampers make the a/c that inefficient that won't cool at all as it is not even cooling in the basement.
Please let me know. Any advice would be really appreciated.
Thanks!
