Copeland compressor technical support

SOURCE: need recommended sub-cooling and superheat for

Superheat should be 8 to 12 degree's. Sub cooling around 18-22. I like to use superheat that way I know the coil is doing all it can do.

You could possibly try a new capacitor. However,your condensing unit is 12 years old. Anything more than a capacitor would require the unit be replaced.

SOURCE: I cannot read the model of Package AC with electric heat strips,

Here is a site that may provide you with all that information.

Not a DIY project. You'll need refrigerant recovery equipment, vacuum pump, manometer, refrigerant scall, refrigerant disposal bottles, high pressure nitrogen tanks and regulators, acetelyn tanks with regulators and torch tips not to mention EPA license. Call a reputable service company. In South Central PA, fair price range is $1,500 - 2,000. If the unit is more than 10 years ole, replace the condenser (if they can get one for your refrigerant) for about $1000 more.
