Hi,I've bought recently a second hand -mint condition-Delonghi Pinguino PAC C120.(12000 Btu)It's on a studio, 180 Sqf, with a window facing North.(I'm in Argentina and it's summer right now)I've cleaned the detachable filter. Also, took off the back and side covers to clean the internal filter which had almost 1/2'' of lint.The exhaust hose is installed on the back and expelling warm air outside trhough a window, with the included accesories that came with the unit.The compressor kick in w/o problems; I've measured the temp coming out of the front grille and it almost matches the one on the digital display.The thing is that the room is - after 12 hours of continuous operation- , I would say cool, not cold.Temp was set 12 hours ago (73) and the room temp is 81 right now (outside is 85), meaning, the unit never ever reaches the desired room temperaturethus, the compressor never stops working.(I have the blinds closed) If I raise the temp on the unit, over the room temp, the compressor stops as it's supposed to.So, what could be wrong with this thing? 12000 Btu's aren't enough???Thanks for any help.
