Bryant outdoor unit runs but indoor air is not cold; supply air feels only slightly cooler than room temperature or not cool at all.

Safety first: Turn off power to the indoor air handler/furnace before opening panels. Do not open the refrigerant circuit.

Steps:

• 1. Replace air filter: A clogged filter on a Bryant air handler or furnace can severely reduce cooling. Replace with the correct size and MERV rating.
• 2. Check indoor coil: Remove the access panel to the evaporator coil. If the coil is matted with dust or pet hair, have it professionally cleaned. Light surface dust can sometimes be gently vacuumed with a soft brush.
• 3. Inspect for icing: Look for ice on the coil or suction line. If present, turn system off and run the fan only until all ice melts, then restart. Repeated icing indicates airflow or refrigerant issues.
• 4. Verify outdoor unit operation: Ensure the Bryant condenser fan and compressor are both running. If only the fan runs, the compressor or capacitor may be faulty.
• 5. Call a technician for refrigerant check: If airflow is good and no obvious icing, a licensed technician should check refrigerant charge, TXV operation, and compressor performance.
