(1) For Indoor Unit and Outdoor Unit
(a) Fan and Fan Motor
● Lubrication - All fan motors are pre-lubricated and sealed at the factory. Therefore, no lubricating
maintenance is required.
● Sound and Vibration - Inspect for abnormal sound and vibration.
● Rotation - Inspect for clockwise rotation and rotating speed.
● Insulation - Inspect for electrical insulation resistance.
(b) Heat Exchanger
● Clog - Inspect and remove any accumulated dirt and dust from the heat exchanger at regular
intervals. As for outdoor unit, other obstacles such as growing grass and pieces of paper, which
might restrict air flow, should also be removed.
(c) Piping Connection
● Leakage - Inspect for refrigerant leakage at piping connection.
(d) Cabinet

● Fixing Screw - Inspect and fix loosened or lost screws.
● Insulation - Inspect and repair peeled thermal insulation material on cabinet.
(e) Electrical Equipment
● Activation - Inspect for abnormal activation of the magnetic contactor, auxiliary relay, PCB and
etc.
● Line Condition - Pay attention to working voltage, amperage and phase balance. Inspect for
faulty contact caused by loosened terminal connections, oxidized contacts, foreign matter, and
other items. Inspect for electrical insulation resistance.
(f) Control and Protective Devices
● Setting - Do not readjust the setting in the field unless the setting is maintained at a point other

(c) Float Switch
● Activation - Inspect for activation of float switch.
(3) For Outdoor Unit
(a) Compressor
● Sound and Vibration - Inspect for abnormal sound and vibration.
● Activation - Inspect for that the voltage drop of power supply line is within 16% at start and within
2% during operation.
(b) Reverse Valve
● Activation - Inspect for any abnormal activating sound.
(c) Strainer
● Clog - Inspect for that no temperature difference between both ends.
(d) Earth Wire
● Earth Line - Inspect for continuity to the earth.
(e) Oil Heater
