...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.....
I've had this conversation with others. It seems to be a difficult concept to grasp that what one thinks is the incoming air - really isn't. The unit is internally recirculating the same air over and over to achieve those low temps.
People think because the temperature coming out is so low that the system is working great, it is actually the opposite. The internal mixing of air causes the unit to cool the room slower than it should.
