  If your EdgeStar Air Conditioner is not functioning, ensure it's plugged in and the LCDI power cord hasn't tripped; if so, press the Reset button. Try another outlet or check the circuit breaker, referring to the unit's rating label for amperage. Also, check if the water reservoir is full, indicated by a P1 error code; if full, drain the unit. If indicator lights don't turn on, the control panel may be disconnected.

Why does my EdgeStar Air Conditioner blow cold air, but not lower the room temperature?

  Benjamin GatesAug 4, 2025
  If your EdgeStar Air Conditioner blows cold air but doesn't lower the room temperature, ensure the unit is vented properly. Reduce the area being cooled or use additional units. Close any open doors and windows, and eliminate heat sources. Insulate the room, ensure the room temperature is below 90°F, and minimize direct sunlight. Clean or replace the filter, vacuum the condenser coils, and clear any obstructions from the air intake or exhaust ports.

  If your EdgeStar Air Conditioner is not cooling, make sure it's set to cooling mode and the temperature is set lower. The compressor may take up to 3 minutes to turn on, or longer if it's too warm. Ensure the room temperature is below 90°F. Clean any dusty or blocked filters and remove obstructions from the exhaust hose and port.

  If your EdgeStar Air Conditioner runs briefly and then trips the power cord or circuit breaker, it might be plugged into an outlet that can't supply enough current. If the unit works in a different room or circuit, contact an electrician.
