Have a Silverstorm split aircondtioner lost remote cant get cooling in summer periods.

As far as i know you can only buy split systems either as a cooling only model or as a reverse cycle split which heats as well ( this one heats ) is that correct for this brand ? As i have never seen a heater only version & i used to sell many different branded split systems in stores for over 25 years & you could only buy basic system as cooling only models not heating ??

Split air cons come in both configurations and are mostly in the last few years with inverter systems
you can get cooling only or cooling and heating systems
some brands only have the cooling only on the smaller units ( 8000 btu units)

    Just would like to clarify it basically says it in your answer but i have never seen a heating only model in any brand ever! would you agree that is the case ??

  • Bill Boyd Sep 09, 2016

    yes I would agree with that--no heating only units--=
    there are heat exchanging units on the market which uses a ac circuit to produce heating for a house but I am not aware that they also operate as an cooling unit. These units are not something I pursue because I cannot see the value in a unit that consumes power cooling to produce heat
    with inverter cooling/ heating systems the gas direction is reversed so that the inside evaporator becomes the condenser that releases the heat generated by the gas being compressed back to a liquid and the condenser outside becomes the evaporator so the one unit uses the same power to do either heating or cooling

Why cant I keep the room temp. correct with the remote

I don't know how far off your temperature problem is but it is common for the temperature to be off a couple of degrees over and under. There is a swing factor in heating and cooling of around two degrees over and under possibly even more. This keeps the unit from constantly going on and off and wearing out parts to fast. If the temperature is way off from what the main thermostat is set check the batteries or just put in new ones. Then check to see if the remote is being picked up on the main unit.

Split system outside unit won't come on for cooling, only heating

Check your filters, dog hair and lack of maintenance will definitely burden the cooling mode of the Mr Slim units.

How far from the unit or room do you have the remote? remember the remote is the sensor, if it isnt near the unit it will not shut off! place the remote 8 feet from the unit and leave it there, if it doesnt shut off, it was installed wrong or is malfunctioning!

Get them ready for summer

Make sure there are no weeds around the outside compressor.

See that all vents/louvers are clear.

Change air filter inside if it hasn't just been changed.

Clean algae off cooling fins -- be careful with these -- they are very fragile and can be easily damaged -- you can get a kit from an appliance parts store to clean them

- check all pipes, insulation, etc. for damage -- repair as needed

Turn it on
