Possible Causes

Low refrigerant charge, Partial blockage in capillary tube, Internal evaporator restriction, Weak compressor

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Do not attempt to open the sealed refrigerant system yourself.

Confirm airflow and cleanliness:

  • Clean the condenser coil and fan to rule out airflow issues.

Observe frost pattern:

  • After 10–15 minutes of operation, inspect the evaporator. If only a small section frosts while the rest remains warm, a sealed system problem is likely.

Sealed system repairs (refrigerant recharge, capillary replacement, compressor replacement) require specialized tools and certification. Contact a professional technician.
