I have an older heat and cool unit that is designed to take the condensa=

Subject: [Shop-talk] Cooling down an air conditioner
Date: Mon, 08 Aug 2016 18:07:41 -0500
I've got a window mounted A/C in my garage. It generally does a pretty g=
ood job of cooling it down but now that the daily high is over 100 (f) i=
t is having a problem and is tripping the breaker after running a hour o=
r so in mid afternoon ( unit gets full sun).
Question: would installing a fine water mist sprayer behind the evaporat=
or coil easy the load on the compressor thus allowing it to continue to =
cool?
For the few weeks I have this problem it is not worth the cost of wiring=
and installing a larger unit.
Thanks for any thoughts
