Greetings to all visitors to our site about air conditioners! Modern split systems are capable of several tasks. The main ones are cooling, heating, ventilation of premises and air purification. Today we'll talk in more detail about the heating function. Or rather, how this mode is indicated on the control panel. Let's find out what the word "heat" means (on the remote control or on the air conditioner itself) in translation into Russian.

The heating function on the air conditioner remotes can be labeled in different ways. But the essence of this mode is the same - an indication of the operation of the device for heating the air in the room. Most often, the heat mode is indicated by the sun or the words "heat". What translated from in English means "warm", "Warmth", "heating", "warm up".

How to turn on the "heat" mode on a split system

Each control panel of the split-system has a button for switching modes (usually this button is designated "mode"). In order to turn on the "heat" on the air conditioner, you need push the button
"Mode"
so many times until the "sun" or the inscription "heat" will light up... On the indoor units of many air conditioners in heating mode, an indicator in the form of a "sun" or a lamp with the inscription "heat" lights up.

After you switch to heat, you will need to wait a while (usually 5-10 minutes) for warm air to come out of the air conditioner. This time is spent on redirecting the movement of freon in the device. After the changeover occurs, the functions of the split-system units are reversed. The indoor unit will already give out heat, and the external unit will give off the cold to the street.

What to do if the "heat" mode on the air conditioner does not turn on

If you did everything by software, but there is no effect, then it is possible:


The included "heat" mode on the air conditioner means that its units (namely the four-way valve) are rebuilt to supply warm air to the room. Split will not cool in this mode, no matter what temperature you set it! In order for them to cool down again, they will need to switch the mode and WAIT.

The air conditioner has entered tightly into the daily life of most people. It is used at home, in offices, in shopping centers - almost everywhere. With its help, you can easily and quickly both cool and heat the room. But with a huge demand, most consumers do not really know about all its capabilities. Not a few people know little about the designations of the buttons on the air conditioner remote control. This article will help you understand this issue.

Types and features

Air conditioner remotes are divided into:

  • infrared;
  • wired.

Infrared remotes are considered to transmit a signal due to radiation. This system is used in wall split systems, cassette, ceiling air conditioners, as well as in some models of window air conditioners. Infrared remotes are convenient to use, but their range is limited to 8 meters, and it should be borne in mind that after 5 meters, malfunctions may occur due to bright lighting. This kind control is not suitable for systems installed above the recommended values, as well as those models in which indoor units are hidden behind false ceilings or plasterboard structures.

Infrared remotes have a self-diagnosis system, therefore, during a failure, the indicator lamps on the indoor unit of the split system start flashing, so that the service department will need less time for diagnostics and repairs.

Wired control the air conditioner at any distance. In case of malfunctions, an error code is displayed on the display, which makes diagnostics even easier than with an infrared remote control. The wired type of control allows you to control the operation of 4-8 air conditioners. Some models have an optional temperature sensor to help ensure optimum performance.

HEAT

Regardless of the manufacturer of the split system, the main symbols on the air conditioner panel can be distinguished.

HEAT - heating, temperature up to 30 degrees. This mode is used to heat indoor air. It has a designation on the air conditioner control panel in the form of a sun. The program automatically raises the temperature to the set temperature as soon as it starts to drop. It is important to know that each appliance has its own limitations for use in cold weather. Limitations in work can be from -5 to -15 degrees, depending on technical characteristics air conditioner. Do not neglect the rules for using the device in order to avoid damage. When choosing an air conditioner, it is important to know the conditions under which it can be used. There are models in which there are no restrictions.

COOL

This mode is used to cool the room in hot weather to 16-18 degrees. This function is considered the main one and is present in any air conditioner. It is marked on the air conditioner control panel in the form of a snowflake. Cooling occurs thanks to the filled refrigerant, which slowly takes heat from the room due to gassing and releases warm air outside. The power of the air conditioner should be selected on the basis of one kilowatt per 8-10 square meters, under such conditions the device will work most optimally. When using the cool mode, the most favorable temperature is considered to be 16-18 degrees, if not enough, then you can turn on the fan.

DRI

The dehumidification function is designed to change the set temperature by several degrees for active removal in the room. This mode is identical to COOL, but at very low fan speeds. indoor unit split systems. Combining the function with room cooling means more comfortable air. The DRI mode helps to quickly dry out the space and get rid of high humidity, it is easier to endure the heat and stop the development of mold. Some models of the air conditioner have special sensors that respond by automatically activating this function in case of a deviation from the norm. For example, there is this designation on the remote control Gree air conditioner... In this mode, it is impossible to program and maintain humidity values.

Air dehumidification occurs in this way:

  • The fan is active for the first 10 minutes.
  • The next 5 minutes are paused.
  • After 2 minutes, enhanced ventilation is carried out.

Do not use this mode near open sources of moisture, such as a swimming pool. In this case, other methods of dehumidification should be used.

FAN

The function is the same as a fan, it is used to change the blowing speed of the air conditioner. In this mode, the cooling and heating equipment does not function, but only air is taken from the street. Suitable for homes with central heating. In some models, you can only turn on the ventilation of the room without drawing air from the street. Manufacturers most often provide customers with a choice of 3 rotation speeds, and the mode independently selects the most suitable blowing speed.

AUTO

The function maintains the temperature in the room at 22-24 degrees, since it is considered the most comfortable for a person. The setpoint is equalized every half hour. In this mode, the temperature indicators on the display of the control panel are not highlighted.

TURBO

A mode in which air currents spread at high speed throughout the room. If it is possible to turn off the air intake from the street, you can quickly mix the air layers. Thus, the room temperature will be the same.

SLEEP

The mode is used during sleep to create favorable conditions... In this mode, the temperature changes for 6-8 hours, gradually increasing or decreasing the air temperature by 1 degree in order not to overcool or overheat the sleeping person. If the air conditioner works for heating, then the temperature rises, if for cooling, then it drops.

SWING

This mode is used to fix or change the position of the split-system blinds. Thanks to this mode, the air is distributed evenly throughout the room. On some remotes, the movement of the blinds is displayed.

AUTORESTART

This mode is not indicated on the control panel, but its presence is very important. This program it works in case of an unexpected power outage, independently resuming the operation of the air conditioner in a given mode when the electricity reappears.

Standard Modes

The main functions of the air conditioner are: dehumidification, cooling and heating of indoor air. The modes and their designation on the air conditioner control panel should be studied in advance in order to know the technical capabilities of the equipment. Cooling occurs due to the transition of the liquid state of the refrigerant to the gaseous state, which is carried out due to the intake of warm air from the room, and when heated, the process occurs the other way around.

Each air conditioner has basic and additional modes, which directly depend on the manufacturer and model of the device. Designation of icons on the air conditioner remote control:

  • Cool - cooling, looks like a snowflake.
  • Heat - heating, indicated by the sun on the air conditioner control panel.
  • Dry - dehumidification, drop image.
  • Fan - a fan with a corresponding pattern.
  • Sleep - night mode, image of an asterisk.
  • Lock - child protection.
  • Led - display backlight for working in the dark.

Special abilities

Some manufacturers, in pursuit of the consumer, are trying to improve air conditioners with additional options. Some of them become very useful as a result of operation. So, accessibility includes:

  • Comfort setting - is able to turn on the air conditioner in the optimal calculation mode. As a rule, in this mode, 20 degrees is considered optimal for heating, 25 degrees - for cooling the room.
  • Air purification - thanks to built-in filters varying degrees cleaning. It can be rough - it helps to remove large particles of dirt, and fine - it can even cope with pollen. In addition, the air conditioner can be equipped with filters that absorb odors. Street dust settles on filters, and the air in the room is always fresh. This designation can be found on the Samsung air conditioner control panel.
  • 3D stream - directs vertically. The consumer uses this feature when he is afraid of catching a cold. It will be designated lfeel on the air conditioner control panel.
  • Ionization - saturates the room with ions with negative charges. The option is designed to improve immunity and human well-being. In the reviews of some consumers it is said that during ionization there is a feeling of a breeze. There is this designation on the remote control of the LG, Mitsubishi air conditioner in some models
  • Filtration and purification of air - this function is not available in all models of the air conditioner, it is carried out by means of step filters. It helps clean the air from dust, dirt and various microorganisms, and also helps to get rid of unpleasant odors... The function is indispensable for allergy-prone people and pet owners.
  • Defrosting the heat exchanger - maintains the performance of the air conditioner for a long time. This mode reduces the refrigerant load during cooling during cooling.

The set of additional functions directly depends on the manufacturer and model of the split system. The designations on the Mitsubishi air conditioner panel will differ from those of other manufacturers. Before purchasing the unit, you need to consult with the seller or familiarize yourself with the options using the instructions that are included in the kit.

So, each air conditioner is equipped with the following functions: dehumidification, heating and cooling of air. In addition, each manufacturer tries to surprise the consumer and diversify the capabilities of the device. Therefore, when choosing an air conditioner, it is important to study the set of functions of the model you like.

Almost every home now has an air conditioner. Devices are different both in price and in functionality. Among a large number of programs, not all are understandable to an ordinary user, and instructions are often written in a technical language that is understandable only to narrow specialists. Let's try to figure out what functions are present in our air conditioners and what they are for.

Among all the many "skills" of the air conditioner, there are functions that cause the greatest number of questions. Let's analyze them.

The dry function in the air conditioner offers dehumidification of the indoor air. It helps when in the room high humidity... It is especially useful to use this function in spring or autumn, when it rains a lot and the humidity is very high.

The heat function in the air conditioner is to heat the room.

Fan function - switching on ventilation. In this case, only the fan works, without heating or cooling.

How does it all work?

What these functions are for is clear. The question remains, how does it work? After all, many turn to service services with the fact that they cannot figure out whether it is working incorrectly, or they have understood the purpose incorrectly.

Dry

There are a lot of air conditioners with dry function now on sale. So, let's figure out how this mode works.

The design provides a special valve that distributes the freon pressure in a certain way. As a result, the upper part of the evaporator heats, and the lower part collects condensate. In turn, the fan mixes cold and warm air. As a result, the air conditioner blows a warm, dry stream. Condensate is independently drained through a special hose into the street.

The mode is used without lowering the temperature. This allows you to maintain a comfortable indoor climate, while lowering the humidity. In addition, using the dry mode for dehumidification prevents the formation of mold and mildew and reduces the risk of colds.

Can maintain indoor humidity between 35% and 60%.

Sometimes users try to reduce humidity by using an air conditioner without this function. Here, the disadvantages immediately become obvious - without a decrease in temperature, dehumidification does not occur.

Heat

This function helps to heat up the room when the cold weather starts. The user sets a certain indicator below which the room temperature should not fall. The air conditioner maintains it by periodically starting and stopping heating.

Important! Before starting the device in winter (at subzero temperatures outside), carefully read the instructions! The models have a limitation on starting at low temperatures!

Many air conditioners can work for heating at outdoor temperatures down to -5. Turning on the device at lower rates entails a breakdown, it may not be instantaneous, but fast.

If you are interested in heating the room in winter period, before buying, you should familiarize yourself with the maximum and minimum temperature limits.

If you already have an air conditioner that cannot work, for example, at -10 degrees, this is not a reason to go for a new one. Most models, even budget ones, can be supplemented. There are special winter sets that allow you to increase the temperature range of the device. So even an inexpensive air conditioner can act as a heater at -20 degrees.

Fan

This function allows you to adjust the intensity of the air supply. In fan mode, only the fan works, no heating or cooling.

Some models, therefore, provide not only ventilation, but also ionization, purification, oxygenation of the air, and so on. Accordingly, these devices cost a little more and they need to be refueled.

Conclusion

We hope you now understand the exact purpose of these functions and how they work. Whether you personally need them is another question.

Use it with pleasure!
