Repair of a Fujitsu wall-mounted heat pump in Sainte-Julie

A loss of performance in the summer heat

We received a call from a customer in Sainte-Julie , concerned that his Fujitsu wall-mounted heat pump was no longer adequately cooling his living room. The indoor temperature remained high despite being set to 20°C, and the unit was blowing lukewarm air. This is a common scenario at the beginning of summer, often linked to a failure of the refrigeration circuit or a lack of maintenance.

At AirGreen , we know that a poorly maintained HVAC system can quickly lose energy efficiency. So we dispatched our team to perform a complete and rapid on-site diagnosis .

Initial diagnosis: precision above all

Upon arrival, our technicians noticed that the Fujitsu indoor unit was operating continuously without reaching the desired temperature. An infrared thermometer measured a blown air temperature of 9.4°C —a seemingly acceptable value, but insufficient given the ambient temperature and humidity levels in the room.

The first checks focused on:

1. Air filters , partially clogged with dust.

2. The internal exchanger was slightly dirty, which reduced heat transfer.

3. The outdoor condenser , clean but with a fan slightly slowed down by a weakened capacitor.

4. Refrigerant pressures , slightly lower than normal — a sign of a microleak in the circuit .

Technical intervention: efficiency and precision

Our technicians undertook a complete intervention according to the AirGreen protocol:

• Cleaning the indoor coil using a non-corrosive biodegradable solution, restoring optimal airflow.

• Replaced the outdoor fan start capacitor to restore full rotation speed.

• Tracer gas leak detection : this came from a slightly loose fitting on the liquid line.

• Tightening, welding and complete vacuuming of the system before precise recharging with R-410A refrigerant .

Once the repairs were made, a new infrared thermometer test showed a blowing at 5.6°C , a significant improvement in efficiency and a return to nominal performance.

Result: comfort restored and efficiency regained

The difference in comfort was immediately noticeable. In less than twenty minutes, the interior temperature of the home had dropped by 3°C. The client, impressed by the speed and accuracy of our diagnosis, found a constant, quiet coolness in his main room.

Our technicians also took the time to explain best practices for extending the life of your heat pump:

• Clean the filters once a month during the summer season.

• Check clearances around the outdoor unit to avoid overheating.

• Schedule annual preventative maintenance , including deep cleaning and refrigerant gas checks.
