Low Pressure Error in Guest Cabin A/C Resurfaced
As we have previously explained on our Aircon System Problem post, the Aircon controller on the Guest Cabin was constantly displaying 'LP' error, meaning "Low Pressure". After investigating the issue, we have been advised that one of the compressor units had insufficient refrigerant pressure therefore automatically shutting down the system. This fault has been communicated to the yard in writing during one of our previous inspections but the yard took no action at that time. The issue was fixed later on (after 47 days!).
Now 5 months have past since then, although the boat or the air conditioning system has not been used, the same issue resurfaced.

Same "Low Pressure" Error Code in Saloon A/C
The exact same "LP" error message now appears on Saloon air conditioning unit. As the system is switched to "heating" mode, after a few minutes, an error message pops up on the remote panel. The heating system thus is now in-operational in Saloon as well. We have been advised that the most common cause of these pressure drops are refrigerant leaks which are in turn due to sloppy piping jobs.
