It is not tied in, it will be a stand alone unit with its own controller. It is very hot this year, especially in July and August, so I think a 2nd a/c for next year is a must. The single a/c now...

I checked all of my vents and retaped them, along with blocking a dead duct run behind a vent and taping it. It has made a HUGE difference in airflow. I am in Florida and it is really hot lol

My rear a/c duct extends at least 2 feet beyond the farthest vent and I guess deadends into the backwall above my cabinets. I think that it would be better to end the duct run at the farthest vent...
