P In a pinch you can force the condensor to defrost by putting the stat
P into cooling mode and setting the inside temp to about 40
P degrees.....the ice should all melt off it in about ten minutes doing
P it that way. Cold air will blow out the registers while that is
P happening.

This won't work due to the fact the outdoor motor will run. the only
way
P to
defrost it is to also stop the outdoor motor. This should not be
attempted unless you know what you are doing.


P Dear sir,

P Enough time has passed for you to respond in an intelligent manner.

P You are clearly out of your league when it comes to heat pumps, and I
P ask you to please refrain in giving advice here where it has become
P readily apparent you dont even understand the basics of heat pump
P technology when it comes to low temperature controls and operation.

Hmmm, I don't understand this reply but if you only use common sense it would
tell you that you need to stop the outdoor fan to defrost the outdoor unit.
I have worked on so many heat pumps in my 30 years as a tech that I can't
even count them all. you have worked on how many? and you have been a service
tech for how many years? you can now apologize any time you want.
