Re: mis matched condenser & handler
My bad. That might still be an appropriate installation depending on the design as specified by the manufacturer.
A smaller coil will tend to lower the evaporator coil temperature and remove more moisture.
So if you are in an area with a high humidity and low sensible load, this might make sense.
Bottom line, I would not call it a bad installation if it was working properly with no obvious problems just because of an apparent mis-match.
The biggest concern I would look for is coil icing.
