Why is there noise coming from my Fujitsu Air Conditioner?
During operation, and immediately after stopping the unit, you might hear the sound of water flowing in the air conditioner’s piping. Noise may also be particularly noticeable for about 2 to 3 minutes after starting operation due to the sound of coolant flowing. During Heating operation, a sizzling sound may be heard occasionally, which is produced by the Automatic Defrosting operation.
