    Lenox system shuts off after 10in of cooling.
    The system was just serviced with freon but keeps cutting off after 10min of running. If you cut if off by the thermostate for about 10min it comes back on but cuts off again. The unit is only 4yrs old.

    Something `s not right,, if it needed freon you must have a leak,, was it cutting off before the freon was added/serviced?, I would get the company back out that did the service work sounds like they haven`t did the job you paid them for

    That could be the answer... I did not think you could do that and thought that it would only take what it needed... Thanks
