    Goodman Model# CAPF3030B6BA?
    Hello,

    I live in Pittsburgh where it is currently about 15 degrees. I just had a Goodman Model# CAPF3030B6BA newly installed. I have the temperature set on 68 when I'm home and 65 at night and when I'm not home. I have observed that the first floor warms to the selected temp but the second floor holds steady at around 61. My contractor tells me I need to adjust, i.e. close off the dampers in rooms that I don't use as much to get more heat where I want it.

    My question is; shouldn't a newly installed system, if properly sized heat the entire home without having to be making trips to my basement to manually adjust dampers?

    Please advise.

    Thanks!
    Phil

    Hi Phil, the system only puts out heated air, it doesn't direct the flow. Whoever put in the new system should have done a test and balance before leaving. The solution may be as simple as closing the first floor registers down a bit and opening the second floor ones. Closing off registers rarely works because it disrupts the flow of air through the house.
