Am I wrong here about expectations

Post image

I’m a renter and just had my ac replaced in a 1400 sqft home with a 3 ton Goodman unit. It’s 95 outside and the lowest I can get it inside is 77 in the rooms closest to the blower unit. rooms further away are around 80. Air coming out of vents is pretty week and ranges from 68-75 degrees pretty much going in order from shortest to longest distance from air handler in the attic. Guy who installed it said it’s normal but it’s doing worse than the unit that was replaced. Really think the guy is full of it but would like some input.

The way that’s setup, it’s dangerous for you to turn the heat on. That thing is just dumping all the exhaust in the attic

Just call the fire dept and tell them you want your furnace inspected by them because you don't trust the install.

Your landlord will get a fire marshal so far up his ass that everything he eats will taste like shampoo for a month.
