My ducted AC has a "Chill Grill" which has
louvers that can be opened to rapidly cool the main living
area. I don't know if this can be added to your AC, but it
does a great job.
Air Conditioner hums but it won't come on
Any dealer for your brand AC should be able
to repair under warranty. It may have been run under low voltage
which could cause the capacitor to fail. Do you use a voltage
meter in your rig to check for adequate voltage?
