Heating operation features

Theory and Capacity
■ Air conditioner absorbs heat from outdoor air and transmits it indoor to heat
the Indoor air .
For this heat bump heating theory, its heating capacity depends on the outdoor
air temperature.
■ This heat cycling system raises the room temperature fast.
■ When the outdoor temperature is quite low, it can combinate other heating
facilities for heating operation.
Defrost operation
When the outdoor temperature is quite low and humidity is high, the outdoor
heat exchanger will frost ,which will affect heating efficiency. In order to avoid
of this frosting problem, the system will start automatical DEFROST function
and carry on defrosting operation for about 5-10 minutes, the heating
operation, however, will be idle during this period.
■ During defrosting operation,all fans of indoor and outdoor unit will shut down ,
and the HEAT lamp (green) will flash slowly.
■ During defrosting operation,the outdoor unit may give off some vapor,that
is not air-conditioning trouble.
■ After defrosting operation , the unit will continue to heating operation.
