Q: What is an air conditioner crankcase heater?

A: An air conditioner crankcase heater is an electrical heating device that is installed in the compressor of an air conditioning unit to prevent refrigerant from migrating into the compressor oil and causing damage. The crankcase heater is designed to keep the oil in the compressor warm and prevent it from becoming too thick and viscous during cold weather. When an air conditioning system is not in use for an extended period of time, the oil in the compressor can cool down and become too thick to circulate properly. This can cause damage to the compressor and reduce the efficiency of the air conditioning system.

Q: What is the purpose of an air conditioner crankcase heater?

A: The purpose of an air conditioner crankcase heater is to maintain the temperature of the compressor oil above the dew point of the refrigerant, which prevents the refrigerant from condensing in the oil and causing damage to the compressor. It is also used to prevent damage to the compressor when the air conditioning unit is not in use for an extended period of time.

Q: How does an air conditioner crankcase heater work?

A: An air conditioner crankcase heater typically uses a resistance heating element that is installed in the compressor's crankcase. When the air conditioning unit is not in use, the heater maintains the temperature of the oil in the crankcase, preventing refrigerant from migrating into the oil and causing damage. During cold weather or when the air conditioning system is not in use, the oil in the compressor can cool down and become too thick to circulate properly. The crankcase heater is designed to provide a low-level heat source that keeps the oil warm and prevents it from becoming too thick, ensuring that the compressor runs smoothly and efficiently. By preventing damage to the compressor, the crankcase heater can extend the lifespan of the air conditioning system and reduce maintenance costs.

Q: Do all air conditioning units require a crankcase heater?

A: Not all air conditioning units require a crankcase heater. It depends on the type of compressor and the operating conditions. However, air conditioning units that are located in areas with high humidity or that are not in use for extended periods of time may benefit from the installation of a crankcase heater.

Q: Can I install an air conditioner crankcase heater myself?

A: Yes you can, however, it does require specialized knowledge and tools. Sometimes it is best to have a qualified HVAC technician install the heater to ensure proper installation and operation. In general, air conditioning systems that operate in colder climates are more likely to require a crankcase heater. This is because the oil in the compressor can cool down more quickly in colder temperatures, increasing the risk of it becoming too thick and causing damage to the compressor.
