HOW AND WHY

Your room air conditioner provides the following

functions to make hot weather living more

comfortable:

° Cools and circulates room air.

• Lowers humidity by removing excess moisture.

• Filters out summertime dust, dirt, and some

airborne impurities,

The air conditioner performs these functions by

drawing room air through a filter which traps dust

and dirt particles. The air then passes over a

cooling coil which refrigerates the air and removes

excess moisture. The same air is then returned to

the room- cooler, drier, and cleaner. Moisture

removed from the room air is carried to the outside

and evaporated.

Your air conditioner is designed to be easy to

operate and to provide plenty of cooling power.

NORMAL SOUNDS FiG.21

Aside from the regular fan motor and compressor

sounds coming from your air conditioner, you will

once in a while hear a pinging sound. This is the

result of moisture being picked up from the air in the

room and thrown against the air conditioner's fan.

This is normal and should not be cause for concern.

Also, do not be alarmed if you hear a slight hissing

or gurgling sound coming from your air conditioner

after it is off. These are normal coolant noises.

CAPACITY AND RUNNING TIME

Proper unit size is important in deciding the desired

comfort for the area you want to cool. The proper

size is determined by the number of square feet in

the area to be cooled. An oversized unit will cool,

but not dehumidify, leaving the area cool and damp,

Whenever the heat or humidity load is above normal

the air conditioner must run longer and more often

to keep the desired temperature you have selected,

Under heavy heat load conditions the air conditioner

may need to run constantly to keep the temperature

you want.

At times using the HIGH FAN setting to circulate the

room air may make it comfortable even though you

do not have the air conditioner set to coot the air.

This wil! decrease your cost of use.

i an

You may hear air

movement from the

fan.

Unit Vibration -- -Compressor

The unit may vibrate

and make noise

because of poor wall

or window

construction.

The modern high

efficiency compressor

may have a high

pitched hum or

pulsating noise that

cycles on and off.

-- Condenser

You may hear

droplets of water

hitting the condenser,

causing a pinging or

clicking sound.
