  If your Carrier Air Conditioner isn't providing sufficient cooling or heating, first ensure that the temperature and mode settings are correct. Clean the air filters, and make sure that all windows and doors are closed. Check that airflow is unrestricted in and out of both the indoor and outdoor units. Finally, set the fan speed to high and adjust the louvers to allow maximum airflow.
