Why is my Yamato Air Conditioner cooling poorly?

  Kevin WilsonAug 5, 2025
  Poor cooling in your Yamato Air Conditioner can be caused by several factors. Check if the air filter is dirty and clean it, ideally every 15 days. Ensure there are no obstructions blocking the air inlet or outlet. Verify that the temperature setting is correct. Make sure all doors and windows are closed. If direct sunlight is entering the room, use curtains to block it. Finally, reduce heat sources or the number of people in the room during cooling operation.

Why is my Yamato Air Conditioner making noises?
- J
  John HowardAug 12, 2025
  Your Yamato Air Conditioner may produce swishing or gurgling noises during operation or when stopping; this is normal and caused by refrigerant flowing through the system, especially noticeable in the first 2-3 minutes after starting. A cracking noise might also occur due to the casing expanding or shrinking with temperature changes. However, if there's a significant noise from airflow, the air filter might be too dirty and require cleaning.

Why can't I change the fan speed in dry mode on my Yamato optimum YW09H1/I?

  Melissa LaneAug 30, 2025
  When your Yamato Air Conditioner is in DRY mode, the fan speed cannot be manually adjusted. If the room temperature drops below the set temperature plus 2 degrees Celsius, the unit will run intermittently at LOW speed, regardless of the fan setting.
