How to troubleshoot a DENALI AIRE Air Conditioner that does not start?
- K
  Kevin RiosAug 8, 2025
  If your DENALI AIRE Air Conditioner doesn't start, here's what to check: * **Unplugged Unit:** Ensure the air conditioner plug is fully inserted into the outlet. * **Blown Fuse/Tripped Breaker:** Inspect your house's fuse/circuit breaker box, replacing the fuse or resetting the breaker if necessary. * **Power Failure:** The unit will restart with the last used settings after power is restored. Note that there is a 3-minute protective delay to prevent compressor overload, so cooling may not start immediately. * **Tripped Current Interrupter:** Press the RESET button on the power cord plug. If it doesn't stay engaged, stop using the air conditioner and contact a qualified technician.

  If your DENALI AIRE Air Conditioner is freezing up, it's likely due to iced cooling coils. To resolve this, set the mode control to Fan Only or Hi Cool, and adjust the temperature control to a warmer setting. This should stop the freezing.
