Question

What should the output temperature be on my home air conditioning which I am pretty sure is a heat pump?

Answer 1

hey buddy. Hold up this is USA we go most of the time by Fahrenheit. The output temperature ranges. Its not a set temperature like the other guy just responded to you. Take your thermometer out and you should have 20 degrees Fahrenheit differential between your return and your supply air. Example: I have 90 degrees in my return then I should have 70 degrees in my supply. It just depends on your return. As you keep running your ac unit for more than 10 minutes your temperature in your return side starts dropping and then your supply temperature drops as well. When you have your ac unit running for an hour then you should have about 75 as return and about 55 as supply. It just depends on your return air. Return hot air passes through the Cooling coil and when it comes out through the supply registers it should drop about 20 to 25 degrees. If you don't have at the very least 20 degrees differential  you wanna call a technician to service it. Example IF your differential is only 10 degrees then you have a problem. IF Return air is 90 degrees and you only getting 80 coming out of the supply after having the ac unit running for more than 30 minutes. Then you know you have a problem. Good luck.

Answer 2

About 15 to 20 degrees between the supply air and return air. If the suction line is wet at the compressor its doing all it can. Check the filter also.

Answer 3

Average reccomended temprature is 24 dergrees celcius

Answer 4

HVAC Tech.: There should be an 18 degree difference between the air going into the return air duct, and the air coming out of the registers after the system has been running for 10 minuets. Less than 18 degrees and you have a problem and the farther down it goes the bigger the problem. Above 20 degrees and you have a different problem. Hope that helps you.
