CLEARANCE CHECK
Clearances around the unit should also be checked to make
sure that the intake air and discharge air paths have not
become blocked or restricted. A minimum of eight inches
clearance is needed from unit to furniture, beds, or other
objects for proper operation. Restricted discharge or in-
take air will reduce the units operational performance. In
severe airflow restrictions damage can occur to unit com-
ponents such as the compressor, electric heater or fan mo-
tor.
NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS AND
CONDITIONS
Water Trickling Sounds
Water is picked up and distributed over the coil. This
improves the efficiency and helps with water removal.
Water Dripping
Water will collect in the base pan during high humidity days.
This can cause overflow and drip from the outside of the
unit.
MAINTENANCE
Air Sounds
The fan cycle switch sets the operational mode of the fan in
the on position. When the unit is in conditioning mode for
example high or low heat or cool, the fan will run continu-
ously. In the AUTO position, the fan will cycle on and off
with the compressor or electric heater.
Starting Delay
You may notice a few minutes delay in the starting if you
try to start the unit too soon after turning the unit off. This
is due to a built in delay to protect the compressor.
