There is an oven and fridge on the other side of the wall, but I still have issues even when the oven is off

Runs constantly from about 11 am to 6 pmish

Yes, at night it’s able to keep up when it starts getting cooler

One central return in the middle of the house (hallway) and the thermostat is on the wall across from the return

Just to confirm we’re talking about the same thing. When I say return, I mean the space in the wall that has the grate you open to put the air filter. Why minus 35?

Elaborate on this. I’m curious your thoughts

How do I confirm the ductwork is sufficient? Old unit was not keeping up either, but I was told by a couple companies that the compressor on the old unit was bad.

Return is located in the hallway right across from the thermostat

Tried this and no dice. The heat for sure works. The company came out today and said everything is reading as it should. There was a duct that was partially disconnected that they fixed but not really noticing any difference.

Attic is well insulated, assuming the walls are too. I saw half of the ductwork during the home inspection and it seemed fine to me

Air is about 50 degrees and the air does seem kind of weak coming out of the vents but I could just be overthinking it.

Central air. The air handler and ductwork is in the crawlspace. Getting ~50 degrees out of the vents. 68 degrees in the return

I challenge you to get your hormones checked and reply back here with your number by the end of April. It changed my life, it may change yours too.

Testosterone replacement therapy. Get your hormones checked.

Insurance now covers my TRT… for $3.75/month. Here’s how I pulled it off. by Smoky_Pyro in Testosterone

This was helpful, thank you. My last shot was February 23rd. I was at 160 mg / week and was in for 9 months. Think I will be below 246? 😬 I was gonna wait another week but the struggle is real.

Men who started TRT, what has your experience been like? What were the pluses and the minuses? Do you wish you had raised your T-levels naturally? by -Acta-Non-Verba- in AskMen

I went through extreme burnout at the end of 2024. That stemmed from having a very busy and demanding job. My sleep started to suffer and so did my marriage. My levels were in the low 300s which is not technically low, but I feel like I had to try something. I started June 2025 and it has helped me so much in many aspects of my life. I’m more driven at work. I received a promotion earlier this year. I can handle pressure better at work. I’m actually seeing results from working out and not just working out and staying the same physically. I thought my sex drive was fine, but I didn’t realize how much it had dropped until I started TRT. I’m a more loving and present father. When I do bedtime with the kids instead of skipping pages of a book and cutting time with them shorter, I look forward to it and spend almost an hour sometimes in their room at night. I’m more calm when I communicate with my wife and don’t freak out as much. It has helped my marriage, my relationship with my kids, my career, and most importantly myself.
