MAINTENANCE
Compressor
The compressor requires no maintenance. It is hermetically sealed, properly lubricated at the factory and
should provide years of satisfactory operating service.
Should the freon charge be lost, recharging ports (access fittings) on the suction and discharge sides of the
compressor are provided for recharging and/or checking suction and discharge pressures.
Under no circumstance should the access fitting covers be loosened, removed or tampered
with.
Recharging ports are provided for the ease and convenience of reputable refrigeration repair service
personnel for recharging the air conditioner, see Refrigerant Loss.
Inlet Filter
Proper maintenance of the inlet filter will assure normal operation of your HIBOY® air conditioner. If filter
maintenance is delayed or ignored, the maximum ambient temperatures under which the unit is designed to
operate will be decreased.
As the compressor operating temperature increases above normal due to dirty or clogged inlet filter (or
plugged condenser coil), the air conditioners compressor will stop operating due to actuation of the thermal
overload cutout switch located on the compressor housing. As soon as the compressor temperature has
dropped to within the switches cut-in setting, the compressor will restart automatically. However the above
condition will continue to take place until the inlet filter has been cleaned or replaced.
It is recommended that power to the air conditioner be interrupted intentionally when abnormally high
compressor operating temperatures cause automatic shut-down of the unit. The above described shut-down
is symptomatic of a clogged or dirty filter, thus causing a reduction in cooling air flow across the surface of the
compressor and condenser coil.
Continued operation under the above conditions will damage and shorten the compressor life.
The air conditioner features an easily removable inlet filter to facilitate necessary cleaning.
There should be no reason to neglect this necessary maintenance.
Condenser and Evaporator Blowers
Blower motors require no maintenance. All bearings, shafts, etc. are lubricated during manufacturing for the
life of the motor.
Operation of the HIBOY® air conditioners in areas containing
airborne caustics or chemicals can rapidly deteriorate filters,
condenser coils, blowers and motors, etc. Contact Pentair
Technical Products for special recommendations.
CAUTION
Refrigerant Loss
Your HIBOY® air conditioner was thoroughly tested before leaving the factory to insure against refrigeration
leaks. Shipping damage or microscopic leaks not found with sensitive electronic freon leak detection
equipment during manufacture may require repair and recharging of the system. This work should be
performed by a qualified professional only, generally available in any reputable air conditioning repair or
service company in your local area.
Refer to the data on your nameplate which specifies the type of freon and the charge size in
ounces.
Before recharging, make sure there are no leaks and the system has been properly evacuated by
deep vacuum.
