      Megan FosterAug 15, 2025
      If your MrCool Air Conditioner is operating erratically, it may be due to interference from cell phone towers and remote boosters, which may cause the unit to malfunction. You can try turning the power off on the unit and circuit at the breaker, waiting 10 seconds, and then powering it back on. Alternatively, press the ON/OFF button on the remote controller to restart operation.

    Why is there mist coming out of my MrCool DIY-18-HP-C-230B?
    • C
      Craig BaileyAug 30, 2025
      Mist coming out of your MrCool Air Conditioner in COOL mode may be generated by condensation formed with a sudden cooling process. Or, mist may generate due to moisture from the defrosting process when the air conditioner restarts in HEAT mode operation after defrosting.

    Why is my MrCool DIY-18-HP-C-230B making low volume sounds?
    • A
      Alison Fuentes DDSSep 2, 2025
      Low volume sounds from your MrCool Air Conditioner may be due to refrigerant flowing during or immediately after stopping the unit. A squeaking sound can be caused by normal expansion and contraction of plastic and metal parts due to temperature change. Rushing air may be heard when the louver resets its position.

    Why is my MrCool DIY-18-HP-C-230B Air Conditioner operation delayed after restart?
    • M
      Mrs. Autumn MartinSep 5, 2025
      If your MrCool Air Conditioner's operation is delayed after a restart, to prevent blowout of the fuse, the compressor will not operate while the protection circuit is working for about 3 minutes after a sudden OFF-ON operation of the power supply.

    Why does my MrCool DIY-18-HP-C-230B Air Conditioner change to fan only in cooling or heating mode?
    • D
      davismichelleSep 8, 2025
      Your MrCool Air Conditioner may change to fan only while in cooling or heating mode because the room temperature has reached the temperature setting of the remote control. If this is not the case, no answer.
