Re: Keepe shutting down the heat.
Mark is right 5 tons is way too big and you are probably icing up. Even here in Az we size units to no less than 500 sq. ft. per ton and more like 700 sq. ft. per ton. What is the make and model number of your unit? I'm a Goodman Authorized Contractor so I should have most info on hand.
Please reply what the symptoms of the problem is, and give more detail as to what the unit is (Model number, split system, heat-pump, gas furnace, etc.).
My initial thoughts are a 5 ton unit is oversized for 1200 sq. ft. for cooling (unless you live with the doors and windows open and are near the equator.).
