COMPLAINT
•
•
•
Unit Runs Too Much.
•
22
CAUSE
This may be due to an excessive heat load in
the room.
It may also be due to an improperly sized unit.
This may be normal for higher efficiency
(EER) air conditioners.
You may notice that the discharge air
temperature of your new air conditioner
may not seem as cold as you may be
accustomed to from older units. This does
not; however, indicate a reduction in the
cooling capacity of the unit.
SOLUTION
•
If there are heat producing appliances in use in the room, or if the room is
heavily occupied, the unit will need to run longer to remove the additional
heat.
•
Be sure to use exhaust vent fans while cooking or bathing and, if possible,
try not to use heat producing appliances during the hottest part of the day.
•
The use of higher efficiency components in your new air conditioner may
result in the unit running longer than you feel it should. This may be more
apparent, if it replaced an older, less efficient, model. The actual energy
usage, however, will be significantly less when compared to older models.
•
The energy efficiency ratio (EER) and cooling capacity rating (Btu/ h) listed
on the unit's rating plate are both agency certified.
