4 Year Old Ruud Achiever Not Maintaining Temperature when it’s Hot 🥵

hey guys it is bright and early this morning 
i'm just well i'm wanting to get started but   my wife has me staying at home because i felt 
a little bit under the weather last night   and you may be able to hear it in my voice so 
out of precaution to others i'm staying at home   but i do have a video for you i've i have several 
lined up that i can do this one is of a customer   who complained that his air conditioner was not 
keeping up when it was really hot here it comes all right this customer 
said it is not cooling right this is one we installed um two three years ago all right let's see what our pressures are 382 143 that on the head pressure looks a little bit high but i can see through the hole hmm i'm gonna check put some probes inside and check i have let those probes sit for a little while   and as you see i'm getting a 12.7 
degree temp drop that is not enough he might survive with 14 but not 12.

null

I mean that hole did not look dirty 
but i might need to wash it he's got poor   airflow in some rooms so i want to make sure 
we don't have some kind of problem down here hmm well somebody's been crawling all over that foreign hmm oh do we have a break in our return right there it's looking like it's possible right up there and this is a room that had poor airflow i want y'all to see what i just felt now that return seam is wide open so 
it's sucking here in from down here it seems been broken all right that's not something i can fix today look 
but we can make sure everything else is right hmm here's my package unit that breaking the 
returns like seven feet from this right here so i'm not sure the air that it may be pulling in 
from under the house is it gonna be cool you know   it may be hot i'm gonna go get 
one of my probes and put it   under the house and see what the temperature 
is when was the last time he was out uh   they come annually you know we had to 
replace that one time before and i told him   well your return is broken wide open 
where they've been crawling over it i mean that's what it looks like to me and 
it's sucking in air from under the house   and normally that would be cool and it wouldn't 
be a problem but when it's 105 degrees outside   it may not be cool down there i'll put this   close well far enough in so i can read 
the actual temperature under the house um okay it looks like it has 
settled out at about 78.3 degrees   under the house and it's 96.8 out here already 78.2 it's been down there about 10 minutes already well guys um i may be going back to do a pm 
on that thing wash off the coils remove the   leaves help it perform a little better but we 
do need to correct that problem under the house   it was 76 inside and two to three degrees   hotter under the house so if it's sucking in that 
air that's going to adversely affect my temp drop   i thought you all enjoyed this video if you agree 
with my diagnosis maybe washing the coil and   repairing the duct work leave some comments below 
thanks for watching i'll catch you on the next one
