We picked a good day to have our ENTIRE system replaced! Took them 14 hours...the house got to 86 inside. Brutal.

I got suckered into buying the New Hotness variable speed scroll style yadda yadda has a hive brain talks to the interwebs whatever system, but we're expecting a dramatic drop in power each month like you saw, maybe more (hopefully more...).

The old system failed on Thursday, tech told me Friday that it's toast and will blow up at any time, so of course I jumpered it to on as soon as he left, the house went from 85 at 3pm to 72 at midnight...13 degree differential over 9 hours.

Tonight, we fired it up at 11pm, house was heat soaked at 86, 1.5 hours in it's 77...SUCH a difference.
