Hi all,
Getting warm here in Dallas and our new 3750FL does not seem to get as cool as our other Montana's did. This is our first front living room unit, the bedroom stays cool but the living room reache into the 80s during the heat of the day regardless of what I do to reduce the load on both air conditioners.
What I am wondering is - anyone else with a front living area experiencing the same issue and what have you done to correct it? I did not get slide toppers like usual on this model, went into full time mode early and did not get a chance to install them. Other than that, we are operating as we usually do.
Sure can use some advice.

Hello Steve and Brenda,
I am a HVAC guy, been doing it all my adult life. I would get the slide-out covers, as that will help. Keep that Sun off. Start the A/C early, if you elect to turn it on later in the day, keep the shades down, consider reflective covering for the windows, that will help a bunch. Run both A/C units, get a fan and set it in the doorway from the bedroom up.
If you can stand the noise, use the 'Dump damper' the large bottom sliding vent on the A/C. I added adjustable vents, modified them and can direct air wherever I need it, It helped us a bunch, that slide-show was just on here somewhere.
Good luck.
