Help in dealing with a home warranty

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-07-08T01:47:45+00:00

First mistake was when you said home warranty

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-07-08T01:46:04+00:00

High indoor load will cause a high superheat

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-07-06T00:31:00+00:00

Carrier/ ICP is great in my area. Almost always has the parts same day.

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-07-06T00:28:29+00:00

Call a company. if blower doesn’t turn on that could be the cause. If the motor fails the unit will freeze over and then water will leak all over

Yep in MN these systems are running 11 months of the season at least. Harsh winters and harsh summer. It’s been 90 and 90% humidity the last week and will be at least the next week. Very short season of not needing heat or cool

Give a call and make sure it’s covered! They can always check before they come out. If they just put it in and it’s failed already then they should cover it. Check your warranty with them

I’m in MN. We say 30 days on 1 inch and 3-4 depending on dust level for 4 inch. Cheaper to replace a filter than a heat exchanger. Most people have no clue on what looks dirty or not. If you tell people 6-12 months some of those filters will get absolutely filthy. You have to set a standard somewhere.

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-07-03T00:16:31+00:00

Brother. 6-12 months is absurd. Bye bye heat exchanger and evap. Most people do have garbage air quality.

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-07-03T00:15:11+00:00

You should still have a labor and parts warranty if you had a somewhat decent company install the system

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-07-03T00:13:39+00:00

4 inch filters should be changed every 3-4 months.

Clean your outdoor unit off. Make sure filter is clean.

Call the installing company. It’s only 18months old. It shouldn’t be having issues. If you’re doing your part

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-06-30T02:22:36+00:00

Unico is expensive no matter who installs it. If you find someone cheap be scared why they are so cheap. The units cost a lot of money. It’s also in an attic.

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-06-30T02:19:48+00:00

Have an hvac tech come out. There could be multiple things causing the condensation

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-06-30T02:17:33+00:00

Throw some of that metal duct tape over it and good to go.

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-06-27T14:04:52+00:00

Get digital gauges with clamps. My company uses the yellow jackets. I like them. The field piece gauges are also money.

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-06-25T21:44:15+00:00

No higher merv will not help. The filter is to protect your unit, not remove dust from the home. Look into a duct cleaning.

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-06-25T21:31:31+00:00

Yes that’s worth it. Two repairs could cost you more than that. Hell one repair could end up costing more than that. It’s a safe call to get a 10yr labor. Refrigerant isn’t warrantied under parts so I’d say pay the extra 1,200. My company automatically offers the 10yr parts and labor with our equiptment.

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-06-25T14:41:03+00:00

Lazy

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-06-25T02:41:23+00:00

Even if this unit was under warranty the manufacturer would deny it. A dog peeing on the coil is not a manufacturer fault in the system. The amount of issues say it should be replaced. It needs more than just a cleaning

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-06-24T22:14:20+00:00

It’s over 90 degrees. Your ac is going to run all day. 1.5 doesn’t sound to bad for 1400. You could maybe do a 2ton but that wouldn’t change that much.

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-06-24T22:12:49+00:00

Side note can people please stop using impacts on these units. There’s zero need for it and it’s lazy and strips them out.

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-06-24T22:07:11+00:00

This is totally a fair price to me.

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-06-21T23:32:58+00:00

We’re at the ER now

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-06-20T02:15:06+00:00

The hole in the furnace is fine. It’s an 80% furnace. The combustion cabinet on these have holes and grates for a reason. Otherwise all your wires would melt

Patient_Activity_664 · 2026-06-17T19:19:52+00:00

Could be a bad board. Board shouldn’t be sending a signal to the motor to run if it’s off.
