    vacuum on suction side



    I've got a 2 ton mini split with inverter that sometimes works great and other times the suction pressure will go super low and cause a fault code for low refrigerant or bad 4 way valve

    I have 3 of these and they all do the same thing I know there not low on refrigerant i've reclaimed & reweighed

    does this sound like a low ambient problem? outside temp about 50 fahrenheit these are all new units and are supposed to be rated to 4 fahrenheit for cooling mode

    Does anyone have any idea's any help would be greatlly appreciated thanks

    Re: vacuum on suction side

    Thanks for the reply! I suspected low ambient problem so I moved one condensor indoors where it should stay 80+ fahrenheit.

    I'm going back there today to check on it and hopefully move the other inside as well.

    I will post results here.
