hi Guys,
Got a problem here, i have a split unit, 36000btu, it's winter in S.A. the previous unit was not heating, when i checked the unit cooling was good, was only getting +/- 15 deg on heating, i changed the compressor & reverse valve to no avail, it was the same? So i changed the condensor unit just to see if there was a difference, the temp outside is abut 14 deg, i gas up the4 unit to 4 bars, the high side is only about 5 bars on the gauge? i get cooling, but i still don't get heating, the unit starts compressor, fan & all my suction pipe is about +/- 10 bars & cold the discharge hot, but the compressor kicks out & the fan remains on, but at a slower speed then speeds up, but the compressor does not kick in & unit does not warm?:mad:
