I (tech) have a question about the network. Do you know if it has dual band functionality? The thermostat's only able to find the 2G network and won't show the 5G which I can connect to throughout the home.
For the Daikin fit heat pump, is there a way to adjust the fan speed? I just recently had a Daikin fit HP system, the noise level is crazy, and the fan seems running 100% full blast all the time, not really as what they claimed as a variable speed system..very sad..... is there any advice? really appreciated!!
Yes there are some adjustments that can be made by installing contractor but sounds like the system duct work maybe under sized for the newer high efficiency equipment. Have your contractor check total system static .50 is the max for modern equipment
I have a Daikin Fit one. I think i had condensation when I used the heater. There no condensation from the outside inverter when using AC? Now the thermostat is a blank white ghost screen with power. AC still working, but nothing showing on my thermostat. When it gets fixed, I'll look into this. Good stuff!
Great video! How can I find out what the installer password is? Mine is set to 69 min for AC and I would like to change to 68 as my wife would like it just a bit cooler at night
You shoumdnt a code to change room temperature unless someone has put in a low temperature limit. Depending on your tstat you could set a programed schedule
I feel like this is a known issues with this brand but installers are pushing them. We just had one installed, felt great the first few days but then started to show a lower temp than actual (probably a 4-5 degree difference). That’s huge!! Followed your steps and saw it came calibrated to add 3 degrees already!! Either came from the manufacturer like that or the installers did that. Shady!!
Hello, thank you for detailed explanation. I noticed that yout air handler had a 2 hours drift from the heat pump, does it mean the air handler stays ON all the time? I got a new system and my air handler stays ON regardless the whole system is off, i usually see the outside unit fan running slow for a few minutes (2-5) throughout the day, is that normal? I built a monitoring system via Daikin One API but im unable to spot why is it running. Appreciate your insight!
It’s a piece of crap I have two of these crap things!!!!! My main stat just runs constantly even on auto mode it never drops!!!!! Then sometimes it’s nice and cool and then other times it’s humid and mucky in the house. I had it set at 72 and it was just so uncomfortable and humid so I dropped it to 68 and it’s nice and cool but it’s just running continuously doesn’t cycle with auto on. When u bring the temp up to make it shut off it jolts the temp right up and back on it goes!!!! Any thoughts on what might be going on? I’ve drove my self insane trying to figure out why this expensive wall mount won’t do its job when it’s in auto mode. If anyone has any tips I would be forever grateful lol 😂
I have a question. I had my system put in. It is gas furnace and I have a 2 ton AC. The problem is since the dealer installed the unit the AC runs 24/7 unless I pull the outside fuses. Which I did during the winter. I have to leave the thermostat on heat during the summer months or the AC will freeze me out. If I set it to cool, It never shuts off. Is there anything I can look for? I had this system put in 2 years ago and the dealer hasn't been able to figure it out. They tried replacing the thermostat, But it still does it. I have no problems trouble shooting my system as I have worked with trouble shooting PLC's and other equipment and repairing for my work. I'm at my wits end. I don't want to have to buy another brand unit. I have the books for installing the units but have no clue what to look for on this one. Thanks.
Hello, I have a Daiken 4 Ton DX17vss481ba outside and a DV48fecd14 inside (installed 9/2023. The evap coil started dripping water to the floor under the unit. I have had techs out, the coil is clean, the charge is correct but i have high static pressure due to old metal duct work in my home. Never an issue with conventual AC's in the past however with the constant ramping up and down of the inverter technology this has begun. Temp at the top of the air handler (measured at the base of the ductwork exiting the cabinet is 56 degrees). All ducts in the home are open...curious how you would program the thermostat to prevent the drip that occurs I believe at lower fan speeds. I would prefer not to have to replace all of the ductwork in this 1955 home :). Unfortunately not many techs are experts w these systems. Thank you!
How do you remove the blower roller on a gold air 12000btu indoor unit. Becos the drain tray has no clips to remove it and no screw on the blower itself to loosen and take off?
Thank you for this thorough explanation. I'm based in South Florida and just had a new 5 ton Fit system installed a few days ago. I realized that the temp readout on the One Touch was off as we were not comfortable and used 2 source temp/humidity gages I purchased online to verify. The system wasn't cooling as low as we desired and the tech showed how he was compensating for this delta using his gage. Unfortunately, there was a lag in his reading and not certain if the offsets were exactly correct. I reset the calibration based on an average of 8-10 readings on both gages ( +1 F and and -3%RH) and the One Touch over a 24 hr period. On average, the Daikin read 75 deg F and 53.6% RH. The 2 independent gages read 76.1 and 77 deg F, and RH of 48.3% and 49.9%. My question is: I did not waiting 30 mins as you stated in your video before adjusting the offsets. Would that cause any issues?
I don't know if he'll reply, but I've had the one plus for a good year. It took several adjustments and dealer visits to get it working right. I'm in Florida too. If you don't wait 30 mins the thermostat may read wrong. I've run into that. I want to upgrade to the one touch thermostat, but I'm scared to lol
Do you have any more resources online that you could link me too? Maybe a little bit more in depth on this tool? We've got a bunch of these at our shop and our regional service representative in our area It's been somewhat of a letdown so far. This little video nugget here was very helpful.
If one out of 4 indoor units in an LG multi-head system is not heating, what could its EEV be doing? Stuck open or closed or partially open or partially closed?
Hello I have a Comfortnet Thermostat that is connected to the Honeywell HE360 Humidifier, the humidifier is not turning on so I bought a new fan side replacement to test and see if it was a broken fan control board or fan, I also replaced the solenoid (as the unit was very old). I am still not getting this unit to turn on so I am thinking it maybe the connection to the Thermostat (I know its connected to the IFC on the board) whats the best way to confirm the signal from the Thermostat is connecting with the humidifier?
How did you wire the Aux heat to the thermostat? The instructions talk about 24V AC signal must be routed through one of the aux contacts of the thermostat and the use of a SPST relay. I'm confused.
You don’t, the circuit board turns it on and off according to conditions. You just tell it there is one and size of electric heat so it knows how much airflow to increase
the video was excellent, I have a outdoor sensor needs to be added message that needs to be corrected. The system has one but it wasn't added??? I went through the whole thing twice but I still have the message. thanks, Gil
Hi Scott: Great stuff you taught. I have been using the thermostat CTK01 for my AC/Heat Amana system for about ten years, but now it has a touchscreen problem that I need to replace. Can I purchase the CTK04AE for a direct one-to-one replacement? It's due to the fact that the wires ( C, R, 1 and 2) layout look the same on both unit CTK01 and CTK04AE . That makes it very simple for me to follow to install it myself. Once installed, for setting the CTK04AE up, I would just follow what you showed on the video. Do I need to provide "Dealer Information" as it showed in the Installation Guide for the ComfortNet CTK04AE? Much thanks for any input you would provide.
I agree with the others that this is a great and informative video and that it is very hard to find information regarding the dealer settings on this unit. It seems like most dealers just leave it how it comes. I installed two new Daikin fits in my home, one on each floor, and have some questions. Overall they are running well but I have the humidity set at a 40 to 55 target and sometimes they’re hovering in the high 50s. I have not messed with any of the trims under the cooling section. The cooling profile is set on D, which I think is the one that best lets the inverter use all of the variable speed ability. The dehumidification is set to on and standard. I noticed there is an A, B, and C as well. Should I choose one of those for better dehumidification? If so, which? Setting A looks like a gives the most range. Will these affect the longevity of the unit or it’s electric energy efficiency? I also have not used the over cool to dehumidify function. With that on, once it reaches the temperature setpoint, but not the humidity setpoint, does it just keep cooling normally or does it change somehow to do more dehumidification without making it that much colder. What I’m concerned about with this function is that it will get too cold in the house while trying to reach the humidity level. Also, how does the setting where you tell the unit the square feet of the house affect anything? I have two units, one on each floor. Do I put the total house square footage on both units or the square footage of each floor on its respective unit? Again, thanks for all your help. I’m hoping you can answer some of these questions. I do like the system, and it’s cooling the house very well, but I would like to figure out how to lower the humidity while still enjoying better energy efficiency than my old unit. Thanks!
