Get Expert Insight from UAE LG Service Center
A portable AC unit can be a lifesaver during hot UAE summers—especially in smaller rooms, offices, or apartments. But if you find your LG portable AC not blowing cold air, it can be both confusing and frustrating. At UAE LG Service Center, we regularly help customers resolve this exact issue with fast, reliable service.
Let’s dive into the most common reasons your LG portable air conditioner may not be cooling effectively and what you can do about it.
Common Reasons Why Your LG Portable AC Is Not Blowing Cold Air
1. Clogged or Dirty Air Filter
Air filters trap dust, pollen, and other particles. If neglected, they become clogged and restrict airflow, causing your unit to struggle with cooling. This is one of the most frequent causes of a portable AC not performing well.
Solution: Remove and clean the filter with water. Let it dry completely before reinserting.
2. Exhaust Hose Issues
Portable ACs need to expel warm air through an exhaust hose. If the hose is disconnected, kinked, or blocked, the hot air stays trapped in the room, making it feel like your LG portable AC isn’t working at all.
Solution: Check that the exhaust hose is tightly connected and properly vented outside.
3. Incorrect Mode or Thermostat Setting
It may seem basic, but double-check your settings. Your unit may be in fan-only mode, or the temperature may be set too high to trigger cooling.
Solution: Set the mode to “Cool” and lower the temperature below the current room reading.
4. Refrigerant Issues
Although portable ACs are sealed systems, refrigerant leaks can still occur over time. Low refrigerant levels prevent the unit from absorbing heat effectively.
Solution: This issue requires a technician. Call UAE LG Service Center for an inspection and potential refill or replacement.
5. Compressor Not Running
If your compressor is faulty or not engaging, your unit may blow air—but it won’t be cold.
Solution: Unplug the unit for 10–15 minutes to reset it. If the compressor still doesn’t turn on, professional servicing is necessary.
6. High Room Temperature and Overload
When the outside or indoor temperature is extremely high, especially during peak UAE heat, your portable AC may struggle to reach the desired cooling level.
Solution: Use blackout curtains, minimize heat-generating appliances, and consider pre-cooling the room before peak hours.
7. Drainage Problems
Some LG portable AC models shut down the cooling function when the water tank is full or when there’s a drainage fault.
Solution: Empty the tank and ensure the drain hose is not blocked.
