Possible Causes

Oversized Klimaire unit short cycling, Fan speed set too high, Dirty evaporator coil reducing latent capacity, Incorrect thermostat or sensor placement

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn OFF power before cleaning.

  • Step 1 – Use DRY mode: If available, set the Klimaire unit to DRY (dehumidify) mode to increase moisture removal.
  • Step 2 – Lower fan speed: Set fan to LOW or MEDIUM to increase air contact time with the coil.
  • Step 3 – Clean filters and coil: Ensure the indoor coil is clean to maximize dehumidification.
  • Step 4 – Avoid oversizing issues: If the unit is significantly oversized, consider running at a slightly higher setpoint to lengthen run times, or consult a professional about system sizing.
