If your DURASTAR Air Conditioner isn't working, there are a few things you can check: 1. First, see if there's a power failure and wait for the power to be restored. 2. Make sure that the power is turned on. 3. Check the fuse and replace it if it's burned out.
Why does my DURASTAR Air Conditioner start and stop frequently?
Frequent starting and stopping of your DURASTAR Air Conditioner can be attributed to several causes: * Too much or too little refrigerant in the system: Check for leaks and recharge the system with refrigerant. * Incompressible gas or moisture in the system: Evacuate and recharge the system with refrigerant. * A broken compressor: Replace the compressor. * Voltage issues: Install a manostat to regulate the voltage if it is too high or too low.
How to improve the heating performance of my DURASTAR DRA5U48M1A Air Conditioner?
If your DURASTAR Air Conditioner isn't heating well, it could be due to a couple of reasons. If the outdoor temperature is extremely low, consider using an auxiliary heating device to supplement the unit. Another possibility is low refrigerant levels, potentially from a leak or long-term use. In this case, check for leaks, re-seal if necessary, and add more refrigerant.

This document is the owner's manual for Durastar Single and Multi-Zone Outdoor Units, specifically split-style air conditioners. The manual covers models DRA1U09S1A, DRA1U12S1A, DRA1U18S1A, DRA1U24S1A, DRA2U18M1A, DRA3U28M1A, DRA4U36M1A, and DRA5U48M1A. It provides essential information for the safe and effective operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of these units.
The Durastar outdoor units are components of a split-style air conditioning system designed for both single and multi-zone applications. These units are responsible for rejecting heat to the outside environment during cooling operations and absorbing heat from the outside during heating operations, facilitating temperature control within a building. The system utilizes refrigerant pipes, a signal cable, and a drain hose to connect to indoor units.
The operating temperatures for the air conditioner are crucial for its optimal performance and to prevent damage. Temperature Ranges:
The outdoor unit is equipped with a base pan heater, enabling operation at freezing temperatures as low as -13°F (-25°C). It is recommended to keep the unit plugged in at all times when outdoor temperatures are at or below 32°F (0°C) to ensure smooth ongoing performance.
The air conditioner's circuit board (PCB) includes a fuse for overcurrent protection, with specifications printed directly on the board.
The manual emphasizes safe and optimal usage practices. General Usage:
Troubleshooting Common Issues (Not Malfunctions):
The manual outlines specific maintenance procedures for both long periods of non-use and pre-season inspection.
