Possible Causes

Dirty indoor air filters on Camry wall unit, Clogged outdoor condenser coil, Low refrigerant charge due to leak, Incorrect thermostat setting or undersized unit

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power before cleaning filters or coils.

  • 1. Confirm settings: Ensure the unit is set to COOL mode with a temperature at least 3–5°C below room temperature and fan speed not on the lowest setting.
  • 2. Clean indoor filters: Remove and wash filters thoroughly, then dry and reinstall.
  • 3. Clean outdoor coil: Remove debris and gently wash the coil fins from inside out.
  • 4. Check doors and windows: Close windows and external doors to reduce heat gain.
  • 5. Professional check: If performance is still poor, a technician should check refrigerant charge and system pressures for leaks or restrictions.
