Possible Causes
Exhaust hose too long or kinked, hot exhaust air leaking back into room, window kit not sealed, blocked exhaust outlet
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off and unplug the unit before adjusting the exhaust system.
Steps:
- 1. Shorten hose: Use the shortest possible length of exhaust hose recommended by Koldfront. Do not extend beyond the supplied length.
- 2. Remove kinks: Straighten the hose to ensure smooth airflow.
- 3. Seal window kit: Check that the window kit panels are tightly fitted and sealed with foam or weatherstripping to prevent hot air from re-entering the room.
- 4. Check outlet: Ensure the outdoor exhaust outlet is not blocked by screens, covers, or debris.
- 5. Avoid tight bends: Route the hose with gentle curves to minimize backpressure.
