Fresh air or exhaust door open.

Check if operating properly. Instruct customer

 

 

on proper use of control.

 

Dirty filter.

Clean as recommended in Owner’s Manual.

 

Unit undersized.

Check heat rise across coil. Refer to perfor-

 

 

mance data sheet on heat rise at various

 

 

outdoor ambients. If heat rise is satisfactory,

 

 

check if insulation can be added to attic or

 

 

walls.
