AIR HANDLERS

INSUFFICIENT HEATING OR COOLING OF YOUR HOME?

  • POSSIBLE CAUSE: Dirty or clogged air filters.RECOMMENDED ACTION: Consult your owner’s guide to find out exactly where the air filters are located in your system. Once you’ve done this you should examine the air filter in each component and replace as needed.
  • POSSIBLE CAUSE: The evaporator coil could be clogged or dirty causing it to freeze and reduce the unit’s cooling capacity.RECOMMENDED ACTION: Try turning the thermostat off for 1-3 hours to see if it will defrost. Also, check for signs of water leakage below the indoor unit. If there is a leak and you are unable to defrost the coil, contact your local Trane Comfort Specialist™.

Your local Trane Comfort Specialist™ can help.
