Dedicated Outdoor Air Unit

Always have a completed Pre-Start-Up Checklist and Start-Up Checklist prior to requesting parts or service information.

Symptom

Possible Cause

Corrective Action

High suction 
pressure

Excessive load on evaporator coil.

Check for high entering wet bulb temperature, check for 
excessive air flow. 

Compressor is unloaded. 
(digital scroll)

Check digital scroll controller signal and solenoid valve.

Expansion valve sensing bulb not 
secured to suction line.

Check the thermal expansion valve, ensure bulb is 
insulated. Check superheat. If superheat is high, then 
valve is choking refrigerant flow.  
  • Check bulb for contact. 
  • Adjust valve for superheat ~10°F. 
  • Replace valve powerhead or valve.

Thermostatic expansion valve. 
Overfeeding.

Check bulb location and clamping. Adjust superheat. 
Replace expansion valve power head.

Room load too large.

Reduce the load or add more equipment.

Overcharged.

Check pressures and subcooling.

High 
discharge 
pressure

Thermal expansion valve setting.

Check thermal expansion setting and calibrate 
superheat / subcooling.

Air inlet to condenser coil dirty or 
obstructed.

Check for proper clearances and possible air 
recirculating. Clean coil. 

Condenser fan motor defective.

Check condenser fan motor.

Too much refrigerant.

Check subcooling. Remove excess refrigerant.

Non-condensable in system.

Remove non-condensable from system.

Dirty condenser coil.

Clean condenser coil.

Condenser fan not running or running 
backwards.

Check electrical circuit and fuse. Check fan cycling 
controls.

High load conditions.

Add more equipment or reduce load.

Low suction 
pressure

Refrigerant undercharge/loss of 
refrigerant charge.

Check pressures and subcooling.

Blower running backward.

Confirm blower rotation. If reversed, interchange any two 
wires from 3-phase disconnect.

Low entering air temperature.  
(Low load conditions).

Check entering air wet bulb conditions.

Refrigerant leak.

Check system for leaks. Repair leaks and add refrigerant.

Evaporator dirty or iced-up, or airflow 
restricted.

Clean the coil. Check fan operation. Check airflow.

Plugged liquid line filter-drier.

Replace filter-drier, check psi across filter.

Improper hot gas bypass setting (if 
equipped).

Check setting and correct as required.

Expansion valve defective, superheat 
too high or valve too small.

Adjust valve for proper superheat or replace the 
expansion valve if too small or defective.

Moisture in system, check sight glass.

Reclaim refrigerant, check for leaks, recharge.
