5.9 Defrost Thermostat & Timer

The defrost thermostat is attached to the refrigerant 
suction tube between the accumulator and compressor. 
If the low side refrigerant temperature drops due to 
excessive frost formation on the evaporator coil, the 
thermostat opens. The compressor is then cycled off 
and on by the defrost timer. The blower will continue to 
run, causing air to flow through the evaporator coil and 
melt the ice when the compressor is off. When the air 
temperature and/or humidity increase, the evaporator 
temperature will rise and the thermostat will close to end 
the defrost cycle.

5.10 Condensate Pump

Condensate is automatically pumped when the water 
level in the pump’s reservoir rises to close the float 
switch.
If the pump is unable to empty its reservoir due to a 
pump failure or blocked condensate hose, a pump safety 
float switch is triggered before the reservoir overflows. 
The switch turns off the compressor via its relay.
To replace the condensate pump:
1.  Unplug the unit & remove the front cover.
2.  Disconnect the 2 hoses from the pump.
3.  Cut the pump lead wires near the old pump.
4.  Remove the 2 nuts from the unit side that hold the 

pump to the side.

5.  Attach the new pump with 2 nuts.
6.  Connect the new pump wiring.
7.  Connect the hoses to the new pump. Carefully 

route the hoses so they do not contact the copper 
refrigerant lines or the compressor shell.
