Question I have a 1 ton videocon split air conditioner at my home. Most of the time it does not cool i.e. the temperature on the room unit shows the temperature and remains at 31/30 deg C. There is no cooling effect. Even I got the service done 15 days back. When I informed the service person reg this he told that due to high temperature outside i.e.around 42 deg C, it is normal that AC will not cool. Pls guide and help
Answer You need to go see if the outside unit is running when the thermostat is calling for cool. Hold your hand in the airstream if its running & see if the air is at ambient temperature. If it is the compressor is not running or it is out of freon. Not running. call the tech back.
