If your Danby air conditioner takes a little too long to get to the conditioning part, dirty filters, clogged grills and obstructed spaces are key culprits. Because Danby's 2014 lineup encompasses more than 30 window units and portable air conditioners, troubleshooting techniques vary per model; checking the included owner's care guide serves as your best bet for detailed data.
Danby Designer Portable Air Conditioner Troubleshooting
Filters First
Whether you have a window unit or a portable air conditioner, a dirty filter is the primary cause of insufficient cooling. To restore cooling power, remove the filter; it's usually located behind the front grille of window units or the rear grill of portable models, some of which have two filters. Vacuum the filter with a soft brush attachment, then soak it in clean, warm water with a bit of neutral dish soap. Thoroughly rinse the filter with plain water and allow it to air-dry completely before reinstalling it.
Window Unit Woes
Before taking further action with a sluggish window unit, Danby recommends turning off the air conditioner for about five minutes, allowing it to rest, then restarting the appliance. This helps overcome power interruptions or a compressor overload. Clear any debris such as twigs or leaves from the outdoor grill and remove indoor obstructions, including closely placed furniture or curtains, from the front grille to encourage proper airflow and quicker cooling.
Portable Problems
Escaping air leads to slow-cooling portable air conditioners, so make sure all windows and doors in the room are tightly shut, and the unit's exhaust hose is securely connected and free of blockage, bends or punctures. Similar to window units, blockage of the air-intake grille by debris or objects in the room can slow the cooling process. The presence of other appliances that produce heat -- or a room full of warm bodies -- also may undermine your portable AC's ability to cool.
Reaching Out
If basic troubleshooting techniques don't help return cooling power to your Danby air conditioner, turn to manufacturer-approved repair professionals. Contact Danby's consumer helpline or email the company. At Danby's official website, enter your zip code into the dealer locator to find the nearest authorized service center, which can provide your malfunctioning air conditioner with parts and repair.
