ISSUE

POSSIBLE CAUSES

WATER PUDDLES INSIDE 

UNIT OR IS COMING  

INTO ROOM

• Adjust slope of unit so it drains downward toward the exterior of the home.  

(See installation instructions.)

• Make sure that there is no debris blocking the drainage area of the unit.

• If the air conditioner operates in high humidity for a long time, moisture may be 

condensed and appear at the air outlets (louvers).

WATER DRIPPING OUTSIDE

• Unit is removing a large quantity of moisture from a humid room. This is normal during 

excessively humid days.

NO REMOTE CONTROL 

SIGNAL IS RECEIVED

• When the signal receiver on the air conditioner is exposed to sunlight or strong lights, it 

may fail to receive the remote control signal. Shade off the sunlight or dim the lighting.

• Ensure nothing is blocking the path between the remote control and the signal receiver 

on the unit.

• Check the batteries in the remote.

UNIT BLOWS FUSES OR 

POPS CIRCUIT BREAKER

• Make sure there are enough available amps on the circuit for the air conditioner.

• Large units which run on a 230V will require a dedicated 20 or 30 amp circuit.

• A dedicated power outlet is required for all air conditioners.
