Rotary Aire AC will not cool

Post by Palmettomoon350 »

Short version of this problem centers on the compressor seizing up. Service man ready to install new compressor finds leak in water condensor coil which lead to water leaking into freon line and ruining the compressor. Must install new AC unit!
This unit installed at largo early 2004 as we took delivery Apr.2004. We are past the 2 year mark for the warranty.

When our service man called Westerbeke Ma. he was told to call Service Company in our service area. They only speak engins and generators!

How long this leak has been there is anyone's guess, probably since the unit was assembled.

I am working through the Catalina Dealer in Charleston, SC to resolve this problem. The wheels are grinding very slowly!
