    Not much air flowing from vents
    Outside unit (condenser?) is a Goodman CPLE 30-IC
    Inside unit (air handler?) is a Goodman A30-10

    House is only 960 sq ft. Are these units big enough to cool my house? I have poor air flow out of the vents, and it takes a long time to cool the house. The air is very cold, just not enough coming out (in my opinion). If these Goodman units are big enough to cool this house, then what else could the problem be? I have clean filters. Will having someone come clean out the ducts make a huge difference?

    Also, I believe I need a new circuit board due to the blower relay being bad (see post Blower Question).

    Thanks for your help in advance.

    You say that the filter is clean. Did you just replace it and if so was it very dirty when you did? One reason for having low air flow is the possibility that your evaporator coil is dirty or iced over. Since you have very cold air icing is a very good possibility.

    Is this a mobile home? 2.5 ton a/c is to big for a 1000 sq.ft. home unless you live in hades. Mobile home ductwork would explain the lousy airflow.

    Not a mobile home (concrete block). We live in Florida (not Hades, but hot still!).

    Have cleaned the evaporator coil, but that was last year (it was iced over then and we got no air flow). Does it need to be cleaned every year if you keep up with the filter? I can go look at it again tomorrow to see if it is filthy.
