  • Page 4: Features And Benefits

    This feature extends the overall life of compressor by preventing the short-cycling of the air-conditioner. When the compressor restarts, LG PTAC is designed to give a minimum of three minutes to have a time of equalizing the refrigerant pressures for optimizing cycling.
  • Page 5 The unit will activate the reverse cycle defrost when the outdoor coil temperature has remained at a cold temperature to form the ice on the coil.This ice will reduce airflow though the coil and will also reduce the efficiency of unit. The LG PTHP will employ an active reverse cycle defrost function to melt the ice off the outdoor coil for insuring room comfort conditions and savings from extended operation.
