Why doesn't the air from my Koldfront Air Conditioner feel cold enough?

  David ShafferAug 20, 2025
  If the air from your Koldfront Air Conditioner doesn't feel cold enough, it could be because the room temperature is below 17°C (62°F); cooling might not occur until the room warms up. Another possibility is that the temperature sensing element is touching the cold coil. Straighten the tube away from the coil. Also, if you recently changed modes, the compressor might have shut off; wait approximately 3 minutes for it to restart in COOL mode.

  If your Koldfront Air Conditioner is cooling, but the room is too warm and there's no ice forming on the cooling coil, start by cleaning the air filter, as a dirty filter restricts airflow. Ensure that the temperature isn't set too high; adjust it to a lower setting. Check the air directional louvers and position them properly for better air distribution. Also, make sure that the front of the unit isn't blocked by drapes, blinds, furniture, or anything else that could restrict air distribution.

  If your Koldfront Air Conditioner is cooling but the room is too warm, and ice is forming on the cooling coil behind the decorative front, try setting it to FAN ONLY mode to defrost the coil, especially if the outdoor temperature is below 18°C (64°F). Clean the air filter, referring to the maintenance section. Also, if the thermostat is set too cold for night-time cooling, set it to FAN ONLY mode to defrost the coil and then set the temperature to a higher setting.

  Caitlin PetersonAug 28, 2025
  If the air from your Koldfront Air Conditioner doesn't feel cold enough, it could be because the room temperature is below 17°C (62°F); cooling may not occur until the room temperature rises above this level. Another cause could be the temperature sensing element touching the cold coil behind the air filter; straighten the tube away from the coil. Also, the compressor might have shut off due to changing modes; wait approximately 3 minutes and listen for the compressor to restart when set in the COOL mode.

  If your Koldfront Air Conditioner isn't working, there are several possible reasons. First, ensure the unit is properly plugged into the wall. If it is, check the LCDI power cord and press the Reset button. Also, inspect your house fuse or circuit breaker; replace the fuse or reset the breaker if necessary. Make sure the control panel is turned ON and set to your desired settings. Finally, try moving the unit to another outlet and check the circuit breaker, as insufficient power could be the issue.

  If your Koldfront Air Conditioner is cooling, but the room is too warm and ice is forming on the cooling coil, the outdoor temperature may be below 18°C (64°F). Set the unit to FAN ONLY mode to defrost the coil. Also, a dirty air filter can cause this issue, so clean the filter and then defrost the unit by setting it to FAN ONLY mode. If the thermostat is set too cold for night-time cooling, defrost the coil by setting the unit to FAN ONLY mode and then set the temperature to a higher setting.

  Matthew LopezSep 4, 2025
  If your Koldfront Air Conditioner is turning on and off rapidly, the air filter might be dirty and restricting airflow; cleaning the air filter should help. Alternatively, if the outside temperature is extremely hot, setting the FAN speed to a higher setting can help bring air past the cooling coils more frequently.

  If the remote control isn't working with your Koldfront Air Conditioner, make sure it's within 20 feet and a 180-degree radius of the unit's front. Also, check for and remove any obstructions blocking the remote control signal.
