How to fix an Arctic King KAW08R1AWT Air Conditioner that won't start?
If your Arctic King Air Conditioner doesn't start, ensure it's properly plugged into the wall outlet. Check if a house fuse has blown or a circuit breaker has tripped, and replace the fuse or reset the breaker if needed. If your unit has a Plug Current Device, press the RESET button. Also, make sure that the power is turned ON.
Why is my Arctic King KAW08R1AWT so noisy?
If your Arctic King Air Conditioner makes noise when cooling, it could be due to normal air movement sounds; if too loud, set to a slower fan setting. Alternatively, window vibration from poor installation could be the cause. Refer to the installation instructions or check with the installer.
What to do if my Arctic King Air Conditioner cools, but the room is too warm?
If your Arctic King Air Conditioner is cooling but the room remains too warm without ice forming, start by cleaning the air filter, as a dirty filter restricts airflow. Ensure the temperature isn't set too high; lower it. Adjust the air directional louvers for better air distribution. Remove any obstructions like drapes or furniture blocking the front of the unit. Close any open doors or windows that may be letting cold air escape. Finally, allow additional time for the unit to remove stored heat from the room's walls, ceiling, floor, and furniture.
Why is my Arctic King KAW08R1AWT not blowing cold air?
If the air from your Arctic King Air Conditioner doesn't feel cold enough, ensure the room temperature is above 62°F (17°C) for cooling to occur. Make sure the temperature sensing element behind the air filter isn't touching the cold coil. Set the unit to a lower temperature. Wait for 3 minutes after setting it to the COOL mode.
Why is my Arctic King KAW08R1AWT dripping water inside?
If water is dripping inside when your Arctic King Air Conditioner is cooling, it's likely due to improper installation. Tilt the air conditioner slightly to the outside to allow for water drainage. Refer to the installation instructions or consult with the installer.
Why is my Arctic King KAW08R1AWT Air Conditioner dripping water outside?
If water is dripping outside when your Arctic King Air Conditioner is cooling, it is normal during excessively humid days because the unit is removing a large quantity of moisture from the room.
What to do if my Arctic King Air Conditioner makes the room too cold?
If the room is too cold when using your Arctic King Air Conditioner, the set temperature may be too low. Increase the set temperature.
What to do if my Arctic King KAW08R1AWT is cooling but the room is too warm and ice is forming?
If your Arctic King Air Conditioner is cooling, but the room is too warm and ice is forming on the cooling coil, the outdoor temperature may be below 64°F (18°C). Set the unit to FAN ONLY mode to defrost the coil. The air filter may also be dirty, so clean it. If the thermostat is set too cold for night-time cooling, set the unit to FAN ONLY mode to defrost the coil, then set the temperature to a higher setting.
Why does my Arctic King KAW08R1AWT Air Conditioner turn on and off rapidly?
If your Arctic King Air Conditioner turns on and off rapidly, the air filter may be dirty, restricting airflow, so clean the air filter. If the outside temperature is extremely hot, set the fan speed to a higher setting to increase airflow past the cooling coils.
Why is the remote sensing deactivating prematurely on my Arctic King KAW08R1AWT?
If the remote sensing is deactivating prematurely on your Arctic King Air Conditioner (some models), ensure the remote control is within 16.4 feet and pointed towards the unit. Also, make sure there are no obstructions blocking the remote control signal.
