Voltage 3905 AC not blowing very strong

[jdmedhurst]

How can I tell if I'm getting the correct CFM? I cleaned 2 dirty intake filters above the kitchen and living room registers. Are there others?
All vents are open. A little air is coming out all if them, I doubt it would blow a candle out though!
Thanks for your help! I tried searching this forum but because of the placement if the search bar, all I kept doing was pressing the Hulu advertisement.

You are suffering from the dreaded leaky duct work problem with the AC. Basically you need to remove, or have removed, the AC unit and reseal the duct work distribution box. It's directly beneath the AC so you don't have to disconnect any wires.

I suggest marking the outside of the AC where it sits on the roof. That makes it easier to align the bolt holes when reassembling.

There's a very long thread regarding this procedure. I'll try and find it for you.

I don't think anyone of us know the real CFM, or care, as long as we get some measureable air movement from the outlets.

Is this a relatively easy job? I can get up in roof easily enough.
How does this happen and will it happen again or will my fix somehow be more durable than the OEM first job?

Relatively easy, hardest part is lifting the AC out of the way. It's not heavy but that's relative also.

More durable than OEM? Why sir, that's why you will be up there, OEM sucks as you will see when you lift the AC.

There are suggestions as to what tape to use so you may or may not have it happen again but if it does you'll know where to look.

I uploaded three pictures in my photos (Duct) hope this helps.
