Possible Causes

Dirty air filter, Clogged evaporator or condenser coil, Incorrect room size for unit BTU rating, Poor window or door sealing

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before cleaning internal components.

  • Step 1 – Verify sizing and conditions:
    • Check that the Pro Breeze unit's BTU rating matches the room size and heat load (sunlight, electronics, occupants).
    • Close doors and windows and use blinds to reduce solar gain.
  • Step 2 – Clean filters and coils:
    • Remove and clean the air filter.
    • Vacuum dust from the evaporator (front) and condenser (rear) coils using a soft brush.
  • Step 3 – Improve airflow:
    • Ensure intake and exhaust vents are not blocked.
    • For portable units, keep the exhaust hose as short and straight as possible.
  • Step 4 – Check mode and setpoint:
    • Confirm the unit is in COOL mode, not FAN or DRY.
    • Set the temperature at least 3–5°C below room temperature.

If cooling is still weak after these steps, a refrigerant or compressor issue may exist and should be checked by a technician.
