is. Contractor sent over the a/c tech yesterday and he said it was just low on freon. Not all air conditioner pipes are cold.
It still took longer to cool the house though.
We get this question a lot from Twin Cities homeowners.
The house was cooling anyway. I survied last year summer with the unit. They filled it up and the its blowing cold air now and the small pipe is now warm the big pipe is cool but not cold.

The hot summer months are very taxing for even the newest air conditioning system and if it is not properly maintained it can break down.
Air-conditioner (or freezer, or refrigerator) pipes should be:
Check the contractor locator map if you'd like to give one of them a shot at it. Well if the pipe is not cold, that means that it may be centralized to operate like this.
Bad information is worse than no information at all.
udarrell, after all of the posts I have read from you, I finally found one that I do not agree with. There is no cold coming into your house: just fluid coming in that gets really hot, goes outside and cools down slightly.

The air conditioner is conveying heat outside, therefore the pipe is really hot. Answer by
I don't know the name of the pipe. But inside the condo, no cold air blowing.

A relay switch may be bad. Pipes: Specifically cold water pipes in warm places (think basements, crawlspaces, attics) can produce condensation. Now, last night, went to bed, system ran for hours without stopping. or
There are several problems that can cause that though, so basically it's time to have it checked. well, the guy came in and told me the freon is a bit low now
This may be more common on metal pipes, which conduct thermal energy more easily and so often grow colder than other pipe materials. Answer by
is not cold to touch, but the thin line (high pressure line?) I live in west texas most of the time, but have a house in the Dallas area as well. Some return lines to the compressor unit will be warm to hot. There are some pro members in this forum who work in your area.
I am going to go on the assumption that you are not getting any cold air. Ask someone knowledgeable in this area.

The return pipe is warm because the heat exchanger outside can't wring all the heat out of it. Then "Warm" from Condensing-Coil to the Expansion-valve;

The return pipe is warm because the heat exchanger outside can't wring all the heat out of it. You may be low or out of refrigerant in the cooling system. And you’re right to be confused—it’s definitely not normal to see ice on your air conditioner refrigerant pipe when it’s 90° outside. Question by
