How to fix limited cool airflow and water dripping from KwiKool KPO12?
- L
  Lisa WilliamsAug 19, 2025
  If you're experiencing limited cool airflow and water dripping from the front of your KwiKool Air Conditioner, it's likely due to the supply or return duct being collapsed, blocked, or not installed correctly. It may also be that the filters need replacement, or the evaporator coil is freezing. To resolve this: * Verify that the supply and return ducts are installed according to specifications. * Remove or add duct as needed. * Check the air filter for blockage. Restart the system once it has thawed.

How to fix KwiKool KPO12 Air Conditioner if red alarm light and audible alarm fails to clear on start up and displays “Front Fault Reversal”?
- A
  Autumn GrantAug 21, 2025
  If your KwiKool Air Conditioner shows a red alarm light and audible alarm, and the Phase/Power Monitor displays “Front Fault Reversal” on start-up, it means the Phase/Power Monitor has detected a phasing issue on the 3-phase system or improper incoming power. To solve this, turn OFF the power, then swap any line voltage wire with one of the other two. Reapply power and verify the incoming power.

Why does my KwiKool Air Conditioner show 'Front Over Voltage' and a red alarm?
- T
  thomas77Aug 28, 2025
  If your KwiKool Air Conditioner displays a red alarm light and audible alarm, along with a “Front Over Voltage” message on the Phase/Power Monitor during start-up, it indicates that the Phase/Power Monitor is detecting voltage higher than the factory setting. Check the system for the cause of the over voltage and increase the percentage of the over voltage setting if necessary.

  If your KwiKool Air Conditioner displays a red alarm light and audible alarm, along with a “Front Under Voltage” message on the Phase/Power Monitor during start-up, it means the Phase Monitor is detecting voltage lower than the factory setting. You should check the system for the cause of the under voltage and increase the percentage of the under voltage setting if necessary.

What to do if KwiKool Air Conditioner power is on but the control is blank?
- L
  Linda DavisSep 3, 2025
  If your KwiKool Air Conditioner has power but the control is blank, the low voltage circuit is not engaged. For 12-ton models, turn on the built-in breaker. For all models, verify incoming power to the contactor and reset the switch on the low voltage transformer.

What does it mean when the KPO red fault light is on and Phase Monitor displays lock out “Back Fault” on KwiKool KPO12 Air Conditioner?
- T
  Tiffany GibsonSep 6, 2025
  If the KPO red fault light on the control panel is on and the Phase Monitor displays a lockout with “Back Fault” and 2 red lights on your KwiKool Air Conditioner, it signifies that a fault has been detected from one of the unit’s motors. You should inspect the motor components for faulty or loose connections.

What to do if the condensate is not pumping in my KwiKool KPO12 Air Conditioner?
- L
  Lisa GonzalezSep 8, 2025
  If the condensate is not pumping in your KwiKool Air Conditioner, it could be that the water level is below the pumping level. Allow the reservoir to fill and check for any crimping in the line.

Why is there a chatter or hum from the KwiKool KPO12 control box?
- L
  Lisa BarnettSep 12, 2025
  A chatter or hum from the control box of your KwiKool Air Conditioner while it's operating suggests that the incoming source power is poor, or a low voltage component is faulty. Check for proper voltage switch selection on 208/230 volt units and correct incoming power.

What to do if KwiKool Air Conditioner sounds an audible alarm?
- M
  Michelle BurtonNov 15, 2025
  If your KwiKool Air Conditioner sounds an audible alarm, it indicates a mechanical system issue. This could be due to: * High water level in the condensate pump: Inspect the condensate pump for overflow and proper operation. Check the condensate line for clogs or crimping. This resets automatically upon correction. * High pressure: Correct airflow issues in or out of the condenser. Inspect or replace condenser drive belts. Check the condenser motor for proper operation and the condenser drive (VFD) for trips; reset if needed. The high-pressure switch requires manual reset and is located in the service compartment on the compressor discharge line. * Low pressure: Install service gauges to view pressure readings below 20 PSI. Check for icing on the evaporator coil or low return air t...
