HOW IT WORKS

The compressor (6) in the exterior
unit compresses the refrigerant into
a high-temperature, high-pressure
gas. When this gas flows along
the cooling fins of the condenser
(7), heat is exuded and the gas
condenses into a liquid, which is led
to the evaporator (1) in the interior
unit. The liquid expands into a
gas at a low temperature and low
pressure.
This gas absorbs the warmth of the
air in the room, the cooled air is
blown back into the room and the
heat is led to the compressor along
with the gas.

Cooling

A fan (3) draws the air (a) over the filter (2) and blows the cooled air (b) back
into the room.
A fan (8) draws air over the condenser and blows warm air (d) away.

Dehumidifying

As with cooling, the moisture in the air condenses on the cold evaporator at
room temperature.
