Air Conditioner - Condensation or moisture dripping from indoor unit

Issue

Condensation or moisture dripping from indoor unit

Applies to

• Westinghouse Split System Air Conditioner
• Kelvinator Split System Air Conditioner

Solution

Do not operate the air conditioner for long periods with the airflow direction set
downward in cool or dry mode. Otherwise, condensation may occur on the surface of the horizontal louver causing moisture to drop onto the floor or on furnishings.

If the air conditioner runs for a long time in cooling mode and the humidity is high, condensed water may drip out of the unit. Set the vertical airflow louver to its maximum angle (vertically to the floor) and set HIGH fan mode.

To set the vertical air flow (up-Down) direction

• Perform this function while the unit is in operation. Use the remote controller to adjust the air-flow direction. The horizontal louver can swing up and down automatically.

Important

Do not put your fingers into the panel of blower and suction side. The high-speed fan may cause danger.

• Open angle of the horizontal louver should not be set too small, as COOLING or HEATING performance may be impaired due to too restricted air flow area.
• Do not move the horizontal louver manually, otherwise the horizontal louver will be out of sync. Please cease operating, unplug power for a few seconds, then restart the air conditioner.
• Do not operate unit with horizontal louver in closed position.
