Unit works continuously, no sufficient
cooling
Unit not cooling properly during night
time
Not sufficiently cooling during
daytime
Cooling coil ices up
Unit is not restarting (after a cut-off)
Unit is taking long time to restart
Compressor goes lockout (pump
down system)
Taking more time for the pumpdown
cycle, cooling coil ices up
Noisy unit
Unit operational noise listening inside
the building
Compressor not working
Circuit breaker of the unit trips
