How to fix a Port A Cool Freezer fan motor that won't run and makes no sound?
If the fan motor of your Port A Cool Freezer doesn't run and makes no sound, the issue might be with the power cord, extension cord, switches, or circuit breaker. Try reconnecting the power or extension cord and resetting the breaker.
Why does my Port A Cool Freezer motor overheat and shut off?
If your Port A Cool Freezer's motor is overheating, shutting off, and then restarting, it could be due to several reasons. One possibility is that the extension cord gauge is too small; replace it with a 12-gauge cord.

Why does my Port A Cool Freezer pump hum but not pump water?
If the pump of your Port A Cool Freezer hums when the switch is turned on but does not pump water, it could be due to a clogged inlet filter; try cleaning the filter.

Why is my Port A Cool Freezer overflowing or spitting water?
If your Port-A-Cool Freezer unit overflows from the sump tank or is spitting water through the fan, the float valve hose might be loose at the bulkhead fitting or at the float valve; tighten the connections and/or replace the hose washers. Alternatively, the water pressure might be too high, preventing the float valve from shutting off (50 psi max.); reduce the water pressure by checking the in-line reducer. It's also possible that the float valve isn't seating properly; check for particles in the valve and replace the float valve if needed. Finally, adjust the spray bar valve to reduce excess water flow.
