Koppel is a Philippine-based company that started back in 1904 as a distributor of railway equipment. They commonly dealt with sugarcane cars, cargo cars, bulk carriers, and tankers for the Philippine National Railways. It was not until 1923 when the company joined hands with American Conglomerate that they started manufacturing and distributing American standard air conditioners.

However, it was not until 1957 that the company started to manufacture and market split and packaged air conditioning equipment. Making their move in the golden era they easily became a leader in the industry. In the years to come, the company went through a great deal, but Koppel managed to keep its focus on commercial and residential air conditioning systems.

Phenomena: Frog is blown out during the cooling operation.

Diagnosis: When the indoor temperature and humidity is high, such phenomena might occur. When the indoor temperature and humidity drops, the frog will disappear.

Phenomena: There is odd smell of the delivered air.

Diagnosis: It might be the smell of cigarette smoke or other things inside the air conditioner.

Phenomena: There is “squeezing” sound.

Diagnosis: It might be caused by the cycling of the refrigerant inside the air conditioner.

Phenomena: There is “patting” sound.

Diagnosis: It might be caused by the heat expansion of contraction of the plastic parts.

Phenomena: There is moisture at the air outlet grids.

Diagnosis: If the air conditioner operates in high humidity for long time, moisture may be condensed at the grids and become water drops.
