Why is my DANBY DAS180EAQHWDB air conditioner not producing heat and how can I resolve this issue?
Frequently Asked Questions - 19/04/2026
Response Notice-Facile

If your Danby DAS180EAQHWDB split air conditioner is not producing heat, several points need to be checked. First of all, make sure to access the full manual to understand the specific operation of your device.

1. Check the heating mode
Use the remote control and press the MODE button several times to select the heating mode. A warning light should illuminate on the device to confirm the selected mode. If you do not have the remote control, open the front panel of the indoor unit and press the manual control button to switch to heating mode (press the button twice).

2. Automatic defrost cycle
This is a crucial point: in heating mode, your device may automatically enter a defrost cycle that lasts from 2 to 10 minutes. During this process, the fan completely stops to allow heat to melt the frost accumulated on the outdoor condenser. This is normal operation, and the device will resume heat production once the defrosting is complete. Do not turn off the device if you notice a pause of a few minutes.

3. Set the temperature correctly
Using the remote control, increase the set temperature above the current ambient temperature of the room. The device will only produce heat if the programmed temperature is higher than the temperature already present in the room. Check the exact setting on the remote control screen.

4. Points to check immediately

  • Clean the air filter of the indoor unit (every 2 weeks): a dirty filter significantly reduces airflow and heating efficiency.
  • Ensure that air inlets and outlets are not blocked by objects, curtains, or dust.
  • Close all doors and windows in the room: significant heat loss will prevent the device from reaching the programmed temperature.
  • Clean the heat exchanger of the indoor unit with lukewarm water (max 45°C) and check that the outdoor unit is not obstructed by leaves, snow, or debris.

5. Check the power supply and error codes
Make sure that the device is properly powered and that the circuit breaker has not tripped. If the screen displays an error code (for example, E4 for a refrigerant leak, E6 for an indoor fan problem), note this code and contact a certified technician.

If after following all these checks your Danby DAS180EAQHWDB air conditioner still does not produce heat, the problem may be due to a lack of refrigerant, a leak, or a compressor failure. These issues require the intervention of a certified HVAC technician. Your device comes with a 1-year warranty (2 years for functional parts): contact your Danby dealer or an authorized service center to diagnose the problem.
