General Air Conditioning Information & Tips

General Air Conditioning Operating Instructions & Information

  • During the summer/cooling period your indoor unit produces condensation, which drains away via the condensate line.  To prevent damage to your ceiling, your system has been fitted with a ‘Safety Condensate Tray’.  Should this drain become blocked you will notice constant dripping from the safety drain outlet – please contact our office for service.
  • During periods of high humidity, small amounts may come from the outlet which is normal.
  • Your system is not an instant cooling or heating system.  Please allow sufficient time for the system to heat or cool your home.
  • Temperature settings and expectations should not be excessive.    We recommend:   Cooling –  22 to 25 degrees Heating  – 18 to 22 degrees 
  • Your system is affected by the outside temperature – when extreme conditions exist, the system will run more frequently or even continuously to maintain conditions.
  • During the heating cycle in winter, condensate may come from the condenser (outdoor unit) – this is normal.
  • Your zones are controlled by motorised controllers. Allow sufficient time to open approximately 3 to 5 minutes.

Error 52 – APAC / Carrier / Brivis NC-4 – Overheat

If your APAC / Carrier / Brivis system has a NC-4 controller and is displaying error 52, your system has most likely overheated.

 

The same or similar fault can appear on other brands, Daikin has error code E3, LG is CH34/33, Fujitsu is EE:00/EF:00 and Actron Air is E9.

 

Error 52 on Cooling (Summer)

The outdoor unit has overheated. This can happen during extreme heat, high 30’s upwards. Other reasons are:

  • Blocking the airflow of the outdoor unit.
  • Outdoor fan not working.
  • Turning the system on late in the day where the heat has set in, including inside the home.
  • Running too many zones.
  • Running the system below 23 degrees
 
To rectify this, reset the unit by powering off and then back on at the circuit breaker (see related article – not working, resetting). To prevent this from happening, start your system early in the day on hot days, always maintain an indoor temperature below 30 degrees (even when not home) and keep the direct area of the outdoor unit clear.
 
 

Error 52 on Heating (Winter)

The indoor unit has overheated. This can happen for a number of reasons:

  • Blocked return air filter
  • Indoor fan not working.
  • Turning the system on heat on a warm day.
  • Running too little zones.
  • Running the system above 23 degrees
To rectify this, reset the unit by powering off and then back on at the circuit breaker (see related article – My system is not working – resetting).
