I have a portable air conditioner Amcor, no matter what I set the temp for-the compressor operates at 70-idea this is not cool enough for us, the compressor is not supposed to go until it hits anything you set temp, I put it to 63 but it always turns to stop 70 and not return until the room 72 hits - ideas?
I do not know how you like it cool, but 70 ° is very good. It is natural for her to have a bit of a difference.
It could have a low limit thermostat setting of 70 °. Read the book.
My question is this: If you set it to 80 degrees, is it still get back on at 72 degrees? If it rises to 80 degrees, so I'd say it's a good chance that your thermostat has a lower acceptance limit of 70 ° in AC mode. You may be able to ignore it.
He may have a default limit of 80 ° high definition mode heating. You must read the manual for the thermostat, but I would say that in this kind of weather your air conditioner works very well if she keeps house yor 70 °.
Finally, it might just be a broken T-Stat. If all else fails just replace.
You can skip the t-stat. If your house get below 70 degrees, your sector is Rocking and Rollin. Just be careful not to F *** anything up. LOL
No AC is designed to hold 63. Sounds like the AC is more intelligent than you.
Check your manual, it can be factory set to 70. The unit is big enough for the room? 10.000 BTU 300-350 square feet? The water tank full, and must be emptied? Your vent pipe within. If the exhaust is too long the unit will not function properly.
Ok, first, it would be nice to know the size of your house, and the size of your mobile a / c is. It seems to me that the compressor is cut on a pressure switch or its internal overload. If your air conditioner is small and you have an average sized home, perhaps your work machine of death.
Now, an air conditioner designed to cool the air. It seems to me that you want a walk in cooler. It is very difficult for an air conditioner for the house below 70 degrees. The air conditioning is considered the high temperature refrigeration. design specifications for all the a / c is central to an outside temperature of 95 degrees and an indoor temperature of 75. That is a difference of 20 degrees of temperature. Now it is possible for a c / to get the home at 70, but your work will be very difficult, especially if your under-sized. Now if your like most of the country right now, and get about 100 every day and try to get the house below 70, thats a temp difference of 30 degrees, and beyond the specifications your vision of unity. The compressor will overheat and never stops off on internal overload.
Or, if your setting the machine that has a digital control which sounds like you do, you may also have a bad thermistor is what is controlling the temperature of your machine. simple ohm test lets you know if the person is defective.
But my main concern is that it seems that you want to cool the house is less than 70. Thats a challenge for all a / c to do when it is burning hot outside. If you do not want your home to below 70, you'll need to buy more a / c to do some work.
