When your room air conditioner is
operatlng
normally, you
will hear sounds such as:
l Droplets of water hitting the condenser, causing
a “pinging” or “clicking” sound. Water droplets
help to cool the condenser.
l Air movement from the fan, especially on high
fan speed setting.
l Clicks from the thermostat cycle.
Sounds also may be caused by house wnstruc-

construction.
