5 Cooling Freezing

Protection (the indoor coil temperature is too low) or Heating Overload (indoor coil temperature is too high)

  • The indoor unit isn't blowing air normally
  • The room temperature is too low in cooling mode or the room temperature is too high in heating
  • Air filter is dirty
  • The duct resistance is too high to result in low air flow
  • The setting fan speed is too low
  • The indoor unit is not standard installed, air inlet is too near with air outlet
  • Check the indoor fan, indoor fan motor and evaporator
  • Clean the filter
  • Check the volume control valve, duct length etc.
  • Set the speed with high speed
  • Reinstall the indoor unit refer to the user manual to change the distance between the indoor unit and the wall or ceiling.

  • Reconnect the wiring of the

overload protector

  • Replace the overload

protector

  • Check for a refrigerant leak, fix it and re-add refrigerant
