Air conditioner unit blowing air out of unit not out of vents?

Question

ok so we just replaced our home a/c motor..and the air is blowing out the top of the a/c unit outside..there is curently not much air comming out of the vents..should i switch the clockwise/ counter clockwise wires..to make the air blow the oppisite direction in the unit? will this help the problem of the air not blowing through the vents ..or is it another problem?

Answer 1

The air that comes out of the condensing unit is unrelated to the air that blows through the vents.  The air through the vents is circulated by the blower motor on the furnace, whereas the air coming off the condensing unit outside is from the condensor fan.  The air coming out of the top of the condensor should be warm, if it's cold, your fan motor is going the wrong way.  

If you are not getting enough air coming from the vents, you should first of all check your furnace filter to make sure it's clean.  If it's clean and the air that is coming from the vents is cold, you may need to have the blower speed adjusted on the furnace.  If the air is not cold, there is something wrong with either the condensor or the evaporator coil.

Answer 2

generally when i change out a blower motor i look at the evap coil motors go out because they dont have enough air going across them usually the evap coil is clogged needs to be pulled and cleaned have a tech look at it gl
