The air-cooled condenser can accumulate dirt and clog quick-
ly if it is run in a dusty or dirty environment. A clogged con-
denser increases refrigerant discharge pressure, lowers perfor-
mance, and may cause the fan motors and compressor to over-
heat.
Inspect the coils.
Use a flashlight to check between coil surfaces.
Clean the dirty coils with a soft brush.
Flush with cool water or a commercial
coil cleaner.
If your unit has the optional air filter supplied by Conair, clean
it using water or air. Replace as needed.
