I have a central heating and air conditioning system in my home. I
bought a digital temp probe, the ones where there is an external
transmitter. This way I can monitor what the temp is in the living
room and compare it to my bedroom.
The living room is on average 73.5F and my bedroom is on average
79.5F.
What is there this much difference? I've already called HVAC tech out
and he had no answers.
My one room is 6F hotter than the rest of the house.
I've tried several things such as.
1. Leaving the door wide open for ours, no change
2. Putting a fan to suck air from my vent to reach the other side of
the room, no change.
3. Cutting off the computer for 7 hours, no change
Can someone tell me of a way to fix this problem?

sweaty and desperate

An obvious question, that still needs to be asked...
BB....Do you have dampers in your duct work?.....If so,
did tech check, to make sure the one leading to your BR is open?

Your repairman can`t figure it out? You need a real repair tech if you
want to diagnose and fix it right, most likely you need to upgrade
ductwork to the room, you can do other things that might help, if the
run is long and airflow poor put in an inline blower, or cut down other
rooms vents, but you should know the temp at the coil so the coil does
not freeze.

The tech simply used his hand to feel for equal air pressure from vent
to vent. He also used a temp meter and said ALL the vents were working
properly.
