Cooling capacity is the main characteristic of the air conditioner that determines the efficiency of the climate equipment. The cooling power parameter is selected taking into account the area of the room where the device will be installed. The cooling capacity of climate systems largely depends on the outside air temperature. An efficient air conditioner will ensure the optimal air temperature indoors. If the difference in temperature conditions outside and in the room where your Lennox air conditioner is working is not noticeable, then the appliance is malfunctioning.
Some Lennox air conditioner malfunctions that cause poor air cooling can be fixed on your own.
Dirty filters can be cleaned. To remove them, open the cover of the indoor unit, remove the filters and rinse them under cold running water. After a short drying, the filters are installed back. Now, the air conditioner can be started and checked for its operation.
A contaminated heat exchanger is cleaned in various ways: with a steam cleaner, high pressure washer or special chemicals. If you experience any difficulties, call for service.
The owners can also clean the dirty indoor unit fan by themselves using a brush or pressure washer.
If the cause of the malfunction is a clogged capillary tube, clean by blowing or pressing. If the tube is clogged with moisture, cleaning is carried out using the vacuum method.
Nevertheless, the issue might concern faulty or worn parts. A professional air conditioner technician is able to test the parts and exchange them if necessary. Contact Prime Air Solutions contactors (619) 655-3355 or leave a request directly on our website for more information.
