How and Why
Your room air conditioner provides the following functions to make hot weather
living more comfortable:
• Cools and circulates room air
• Lowers humidity by removing excess moisture
• Filters out summertime dust, dirt, and some airborne impurities
The air conditioner performs these functions by drawing room air through a filter
which traps dust and dirt particles The air then passes over a cooling coil which
refrigerates the air and removes excess moisture The same air is then returned to
the room -- cooler, drier and cleaner Moisture removed from the room air is carried
to the outside and evaporated
Your air conditioner is designed to be easy to operate and to provide plenty of
cooling power
