             1.Please have a screen over the outdoor unit to keep it cool.
                Turn off the air conditioner and spray water on the top of the outdoor unit to cool it down.

                This helps refrigerant to circulate and generate cold air.

             2.Cooling may appear weak when the room size is larger than the area the air conditioner can cover.

              ※ Check if the temperature difference of the incoming and outgoing air is 8℃ or higher.

                           Outgoing air : 20 

                           -As the temperature difference is 10℃, the AC is working normally.
