    I know I must be missing an easy fix, but in my 1.5 yr old home I tried to turn the AC on in the lower level and no fan........ I looked at the fuse box and nothing seemed to be "blown" anybody have any suggestions before I am forced to invest in a repair call

    That happened to us the first year. The AC was running but the fan wasn't moving so I removed the cover (AC turned off) and tightened the fan then turned it a couple of times. It worked. I never figured out why this happened or why what I did, worked. Could have been a fluke.

    FH FURR did some plumbing work for us and did and excellent job and a very reasonable price. haven't used their a/c services- don't plan to turn on A/C until July if i can't help it! :) but they are a ueber-professional company worth calling. i think you call the Sterling number for Ashburn service- and go to their website for coupons!!!

    If your indoor unit doesn't come on at all check if someone turned off the disconnect switch. Not sure how it looks on your home, but it could look like a regular light switch.

    Well it ended up being short in the system... covered by warranty (the part that is) but the service call cost me $250!!!
