Periodic inspections
(The customer is charged for this service.)
Periodic inspection once every 3 or 4 years recommended
• This unit’s constituent parts will deteriorate over the course of time. Depending on the operating
environment and operating conditions, the unit’s performance may be adversely affected, making it
impossible for it to function to the best of its ability. A periodic inspection once every 3 or 4 years is
therefore recommended. (For details on the charges for this inspection, consult the vendor of the unit.)
During operation, the heat pump unit’s
heat exchanger turns white.
The heat pump unit’s fan repeatedly
starts up and shuts down.
Water runs out from the bottom of the
heat pump unit during operation.
Cause Symptom
Frost may form on the heat exchanger during operation in the
winter months. When the layer of frost reaches a certain
thickness, the unit will perform the defrosting operation
automatically.
This happens because the unit is automatically performing a
defrosting operation in order to remove the layer of frost that has
built up on the heat exchanger.
What happens is that the moisture in the air condenses on the
heat exchanger during operation, and this runs out as water.
Troubleshooting

The symptoms listed in the table below are not indications that something is wrong with
