Yes, in fact it will lower your energy consumption if you have an energy efficient handler. By running it continuously it lowers the temperature and therefore the condenser will not come on as often. The condenser consumes quite a bit more energy. Handlers are designed to run continuously.

What causes a residential ac compressor to run continuosly and is the compressor supposed to run continuosly?

It will run continuously if the refrigerant charge is off. The compressor, condenser fan and inside blower fan should all run at the same time. If your thermostat shows that the unit will not keep up, it will not stop. If the unit used to cycle ok, clean outside coil, change filter inside and put a thermometer on the register closest to the air handler. It should be around 52-60 degrees F.


Why does my Furnace run continuously after flame is out?

It should not run continuously. Typically, the fan (sometimes called a blower) will continue to run for a minute or so after the flame is out. This does not consume much energy; it does flush the residual heated air from the ducts. Make sure the fan is set to "AUTO" on the thermostat, to ensure proper cycling.

Why does your central air unit blow warm air then blows cold air?

Because the air handler and ductwork are full of warm air from not running and cooling is not instantaneous upon start up. It takes 2 or 3 minutes of run time for the unit to begin cooling.


Should you run dehumidifier and central air at same time?

It is okay to run a dehumidifier and central air at the same time. This will help keep the costs down for the air conditioner. If the dehumidifier is running, the air temperature will cool off quicker and the air conditioner can be turned up a little higher.
