The fan only runs when the system is on and not continuously. There is better dehumidification in your home during the summer months. When your fan is set to AUTO, moisture from cold cooling coils can drip and be drained outside. If your fan runs continuously, moisture does not have a chance to drip outside.

This unit also consists of the compressor and condenser coil. The outdoor unit works to keep the air conditioning unit cool when it is running. The condenser fan motor is what runs to turn the fan blades and blow air across the condenser coil, where it cools the refrigerant from a hot gas into a liquid.
When to replace the start run capacitor on a condenser fan?
It’s recommended to replace the start run capacitor at the same time that you replace the condenser fan motor. This is because running a new motor with an old start run capacitor can cause damage to a new motor.
