P8 Error In Voltas

The P8 error in Voltas AC indicates Condenser Coil Overheating Protection in Cooling Mode. This error occurs when the condenser coil becomes too hot, triggering a protective mechanism to prevent damage to the system. In Cooling Mode, the air conditioner releases the heat absorbed from the indoor air to the outside environment through the condenser coil. If the condenser coil overheats due to poor airflow or other issues, it can cause the system to malfunction, resulting in the P8 error. The most common causes of condenser coil overheating include restricted airflow, dirty air filters, or blockages in the condenser fins. When airflow is obstructed, the heat transfer process is disrupted, leading to excessive heat buildup around the condenser coil. To resolve the P8 error in your Voltas Cooling Model AC, begin by checking the air filters and cleaning them if they are clogged. Ensure that the condenser coil is free of dirt and debris, and that the outdoor unit has sufficient ventilation. If necessary, check the refrigerant levels to ensure they are at the proper level, as low refrigerant can also contribute to overheating. Once the overheating issue is addressed, the P8 error should clear, and the system will resume normal operation. Regular maintenance, including cleaning the condenser coil and ensuring proper airflow around the outdoor unit, can help prevent the P8 error and maintain the performance of your Voltas Cooling Model AC.
