Hello Donna,
I am unaware of the electrical requirements for your air
conditioning. I can't see via the photo an unmarked breaker but - please call
the electrician on the Emergency numbers list -(Monarch electric) if a breaker
is unlabelled. I am unsure of the email or the purpose of the email- but I will
confidently say that you should not unplug or disconnect the sump pump breaker.
I will not comment on the electrical requirements or load capability of the
circuits in your house- but a professional should be hired to install an
airconditioner or touch your electrical panel.
I am sorry if I sound abrupt but I don't understand- please re-email
or call me if you would like. It sounds like you need a
professional.
Sincerely,
Doug
Does that sound right ?

Hi Donna,
Ted Moore just left the house, having attended
to provide you with a quote. He said he will fax you the documents.
You may also wish to know Mr. Moore is of the
opinion that the unmarked breaker (photo attached) that runs along the left side
of the panel cannot support the air conditioning system so his
quote will include the cost of running a new write to a new
double breaker. He did not remove the panel cover.
I have attached a photo of the panel showing the
unmarked breaker, for your information. The photo shows how the breaker directly
above the unmarked one is marked "furnace/sump". It may be possible
that the unmarked breaker is what actually powers the sump pump because the
wiring that runs across the ceiling and down the furnace room wall to the pump,
appears to be a single circuit. The sump pump
normally runs several times a day, so if it were to be disabled, it is highly
likely there would be water in the basement - especially if we were not home. We
can't tolerate water in the basement, and we are certain you would not want
this condition in your house, so I wanted to provide you with this
information.
I hope you find it helpful.
Cindy
