Title: vendo 90 Question does it matter what direction air flows thro condeneser
Post by: obs48167 on April 20, 2014, 06:50:13 am
Help....just install a 3 in 1, compressor starts up, but not cooling.  does it matter which direction the  air flows acroos the condenser. it seemd to be blowing out , from fan thro condenser. should it be   pulling thro from the front of the box?

Thank you for your time

The fan should pull the air through the condenser coils first then blow it back over the compressor, but this doesn't have a thing to do with your compressor not cooling. sounds like you need to put a refrigerant pressure gauge set on the system to check your charge & pressures. but it's not sounding good.

Thanks for the reply on my question. I changed the wiring and the air is now pulled through the condenser. let it run a bit today and its getting a little cold on the coils. not alot .
think im going to have it check out..

If you have any other idea would love the help.

hoping to get it up and running before hot weather..

Thank you for your time
