An urgent service call for a broken Toshiba Carrier heat pump
At AirGreen , we were contacted by a customer living in Sainte-Julie , on the South Shore of Montreal , who was concerned about the abnormal operation of his Toshiba Carrier Inverter wall-mounted heat pump . The outdoor unit, installed several years ago, was no longer producing adequate heat despite a constant heating demand. With the falling fall temperatures, the family's comfort was seriously compromised.
Initial inspection: symptoms observed
Upon our arrival on site, we noticed several telltale signs of a performance problem:
-
Outdoor fan operating intermittently
-
Accumulation of dirt and dust on the top of the condenser
-
Inefficient heat exchange , resulting in short cycles
-
Irregular noise from the compressor when starting up
These clues pointed our technicians towards a compressor or control board problem , typical of Toshiba Carrier Inverter models that are several years old.
In-depth diagnosis: AirGreen method
At AirGreen, each diagnosis is carried out according to a precise and rigorous procedure:
-
Measurement of refrigerant pressures to check circuit integrity.
-
Inspection of electrical connections and inverter module.
-
Checking airflow and coil cleanliness.
-
Analysis of communication between indoor and outdoor units (Toshiba Carrier protocol).
Result: The inverter control board was showing signs of intermittent failure. This caused the compressor to shut down before the end of the normal cycle, limiting heating capacity.
