So far neither of those insulted experts have posted their own readings. While I'm sure they have better things to do, how is it that they found the time to hurl insults?
"Loose flap" would have been my guess also, and I'm no expert. But at the same time, NO ONE but Oldman has posted the temps going in and coming out of their ACs.
How many reading do you need? Do you want readings from only properly operating units or do you want them from defective units as well?
I can go dig in 25 years of work orders to find some- I can guarantee that I never let an air conditioner leave here with split temperatures that large, because- for around the fifth or sixth time in the last week- the large split temperatures are because there is a leak between the supply and return, so the return air is actually much colder than the thermometer is reading. Seal up the leaks, clean the filter and you will see the more normal temperatures, and the unit will cool the rig much better.
FWIW, Doug and I have records giving outside temperature, inside temperature, ac voltage, current draw of the compressor, current draw of the fan motor and split temp after 30 minutes of operation (I do 30 because of the extreme humidity- it takes a lot of btus to dry the air, so I normally get a very small split for the first 15 minutes or so). These figures are all required for warranty work, so it's not like it is something we never have done before.
Does this satisfy your requirements?
