Raptor a/c

We have a Raptor 410 LEV (2013) The A/C unit in the bedroom keeps it (the bedroom) ICE COLD... The A/C in the living area NOT SO MUCH...

Question being, is there a way to retro-fit the bedroom A/C so it is ducted into the existing ductwork.? Our thought is that with 2 units dumping into the ductwork the cooling should be more even...

Any thoughts out there

Thanks

We have a 395 raptor new this year. I noticed same thing so using ac duct tape ( not the normal duct tape but tape made for ac use) closed off the bedroom and bathroom ducts. Now the main ac doesn't get to bathroom or bedroom. You have to keep the bathroom door open to get a blast of cold air in there from the bedroom but that's not a big deal.

We also added a third ac to the garage. Nine people were very comfortable in Florida a month ago.

Good luck

I did pretty much the same as above (closing off bedroom and bath ceiling vents) and keep all doors open during the day with the ceiling fan on. I remove the vent covers in the garage when I really need to cool it. One thing I found was I was leaking cold air into the return in the main AC. I took the foil tape and taped that hole area to really seal it. In high 90s and sunshine, it does well. Doing all that I haven't felt the need for the garage AC.
