A/C not keeping up
Here's what I found. Good pressures, SH, SC, delta T. Clean coils, blower and filter, properly set t-stat. And a freakin' turkey fryer in the kitchen that they have been using IN THE HOUSE the last couple evenings. Limited English speaking family. Reported to land lord.

Who cares about the A/C keeping up... I would be more worried about Carbon Monoxide poisoning more than anything. They are just asking for trouble

The ceiling above it was a great big grease stain! I contemplated turning them in to the fire department, but settled on informing the landlord. I did mention the CO potential as well as the fire hazard to the landlord.

Stupidity like that is awesome sometimes. Actually makes you wish something bad would happen to wipe out that degenerative strain of DNA from the gene pool.
