No comparison

I know, I was just trying to make a point that Trane, although affiliated with american standard(the faucet making company) should not be compared to their product in terms of quality. Trane's...

I'm not a plumber, but.....

I can't tell how all the plumbing ties together up top, but I've heard gravity feed is a problem with hydronic systems.

Try some stuff before dropping a couple bills on a zone valve.

All good ideas

Another possible solution, assuming you want a lot of airflow into that room and the duct is sufficiently undersized is to move your flexible duct takeoff to the top of the plenum.

Roll-out switch

You most likely have hairline cracks in the heat exchanger and may not even be visible with a scope if expansion only happens when heated.
The switch may very well be bad now because they're not...

Don't keep causing yourself stress by trying to contact a contractor that avoids you. Under no circumstances should a professional leave a customer uncomfortable.

Those readings are possible on a good running system.

Many variables dictate duct temperature including, but not limited to, air speed, dirty coil, and refrigerant charge.

Your heatbanks may...

I assume you have gas back-up heat.

very suggestive

Check outdoor coil sensor working properly.

Maybe

I don't believe taking a pressure reading before the a-coil will give you the static pressure reading your looking for.

Take the reading in the duct trunk. Compare this pressure reading to your...
