    How to troubleshoot a Greenheck Burner compressor that won't start?
    • C
      Christopher GonzalezAug 17, 2025
      If your Greenheck Burner compressor isn't starting, several factors could be at play. First, ensure the disconnect switch or circuit breaker is closed. Check the voltage to the contactor coil, transformer, slave relay, and system, replacing parts if needed. Look for blown fuses or tripped breakers, addressing the cause before replacing them. Verify that the line voltage is within 10% of the compressor's rating, and correct it if necessary. Give the motor thermal protector time to reset (about 2 hours) after it cools down. Also, inspect the wiring for looseness and tighten terminals as needed. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the compressor motor or pressure switch may be defective, or the room thermostat may be open.

    Why does my Greenheck Burner compressor start but cut out on low pressure?
    • A
      Angie GreerAug 23, 2025
      If your Greenheck Burner compressor starts but cuts out due to low pressure (activating at 50 psig), it could be due to low or loss of refrigerant charge, restricted airflow, or a restriction in the refrigerant line. Check refrigerant pressures, look for a dirty evaporator coil or filters, closed dampers, an iced evaporator coil, or an improper belt. Also, check motor amps and duct design. Examine refrigerant pressure, and check and adjust the thermal expansion valve. If it's not working correctly, check for a pressure drop across the filter-drier.

    Why does my Greenheck Burner compressor hum but not start?
    • K
      kelliewolfAug 28, 2025
      If your Greenheck Burner compressor hums but doesn't start, possible causes include incorrect wiring, low line voltage, loose wiring, a defective start relay, damaged motor windings, or internal compressor mechanical damage. To troubleshoot, review the wiring schematics, check the voltage, check all connections, and replace the relay. Also, verify amp draws and replace the compressor if necessary.

    What causes high suction pressure in a Greenheck Burner compressor?
    • S
      stephanieespinozaAug 31, 2025
      High suction pressure in your Greenheck Burner compressor can stem from several issues: an excessive load on the evaporator coil, the compressor being unloaded (if it's a Digital Scroll), an expansion valve sensing bulb not properly secured to the suction line, a thermostatic expansion valve pressure limit feature that's incorrect or inoperative (overfeeding), a room load that's too large, or the system being overcharged. Solutions involve checking for high entering wet bulb temperature and excessive air, checking the Digital Scroll controller signal and solenoid valve, ensuring the thermal expansion valve bulb is insulated and secured, adjusting superheat, reducing the load or adding more equipment, and checking pressures and subcooling.

    Why is my Greenheck Burner compressor so noisy or vibrating?
    • A
      Anne PetersSep 2, 2025
      If your Greenheck Burner compressor is excessively noisy or vibrating, the cause might be refrigerant overcharge, liquid floodback, tubing rattle, a scroll compressor rotating in reverse (for 3-phase systems), a worn or damaged compressor, or improper mounting on the unit base. Check pressures and subcooling, and the thermal expansion valve setting. Dampen tubing vibration by taping or clamping, and rewire for opposite rotation if the compressor is rotating in reverse. If the compressor is worn or damaged, replace it. Also, verify that the compressor is properly isolated on the unit base.

    How do I troubleshoot high discharge pressure in my Greenheck Burner?
    • B
      Brenda GilbertSep 5, 2025
      To troubleshoot high discharge pressure in your Greenheck Burner, you should check several potential causes. These include the thermal expansion valve setting, a dirty or obstructed air inlet to the condenser, a defective condenser fan motor, too much refrigerant in the system, non-condensables in the system, a dirty condenser coil, a condenser fan not running or running backwards, and high load conditions. Suggested solutions include checking the thermal expansion setting and calibrating superheat/subcooling, checking for proper clearances and possible air recirculating, checking the condenser fan motor, removing excess refrigerant or non-condensables, cleaning the condenser coil, checking the electrical circuit and fuse, and adding more equipment or reducing the load.

    What causes my Greenheck Burner compressor to short cycle?
    • A
      Abigail HernandezSep 12, 2025
      A Greenheck Burner compressor that short cycles could be due to several issues: the thermostat location or controls malfunctioning, an improper refrigerant charge, a defective high or low-pressure control, liquid floodback, a defective expansion valve, poor air distribution, high discharge pressure, leaking discharge valves in the compressor, low airflow at the evaporator(s), or an incorrect unit selection (oversized). Solutions involve checking the thermostat and heat anticipator setting, verifying subcooling and superheat, checking the high or low-pressure switch, checking the thermal expansion valve and superheat, checking ductwork for recirculating, checking blower operation and airstream restrictions. For an oversized unit, contact the factory.

    What could cause low discharge pressure in my Greenheck Burner?
    • V
      vmurraySep 14, 2025
      Low discharge pressure in your Greenheck Burner could be due to an insufficient refrigerant charge, a defective or improperly adjusted expansion valve, low suction pressure, or faulty condenser temperature controls. To resolve this, check subcooling and look for leaks, repairing any leaks and adding refrigerant as needed. Also, check superheating and adjust the thermal expansion valve, and check the condenser controls and reset them to obtain the desired condensing temperature.

    What to do if Greenheck Burner compressor starts but cuts out on high pressure?
    • J
      justin89Nov 19, 2025
      If your Greenheck Burner compressor starts but then cuts out due to high pressure (activating at 600 psig), consider these potential causes: the system may have a refrigerant overcharge, a defective condenser fan motor, a condenser coil inlet that is obstructed or dirty, air or non-condensables in the system, a defective high-pressure switch, a restriction in the discharge or liquid line, the condensing fan relay not pulling in, or the reheat valve and bypass valve not opening. Suggested solutions include checking pressures and charging by subcooling, checking the fan motor, checking the coil and inlet clearances, checking high side equalized pressures and thermal expansion valves, replacing the high-pressure switch or any defective components, and checking the valves or valve circuit boar...

    How do I fix a Greenheck Burner compressor that cuts out on thermal overload?
    • S
      Sandra WangNov 25, 2025
      If your Greenheck Burner compressor is cutting out on thermal overload, several factors could be responsible. Begin by checking the voltage, as low voltage can cause this issue. Sustained high discharge pressure, high suction and discharge pressures, a defective compressor overload, an improper refrigerant charge, incorrect wiring, loose wiring, a defective start relay, or damaged motor windings can also lead to thermal overload. Suggested solutions include checking the running amperage and conditions described under “low suction pressure” symptoms, checking the thermal expansion valve setting and for air in the system, allowing the compressor to cool for two hours before rechecking for an open circuit, checking subcooling, reviewing wiring schematics, checking all connections, and verifyi...
