Almost every house now has air conditioning. Devices are different in price and functionality. Among a large number of programs, not everyone is understandable to the average user, and the instructions often write in a technical language that is understandable only to narrow specialists. Nevertheless, let’s try to figure out what functions are present in our air conditioners and why they are needed.

The most incomprehensible features
Among the whole set of “skills” of the air conditioner, there are functions that cause the greatest number of questions. We will analyze them.
The dry function in the air conditioner offers the dehumidification of indoor air. This helps when the room is wet. 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 heating the room.
Fan function - enable ventilation. In this case, only the fan works, without heating or cooling.
How does it all work?
What are these functions for, of course. The question remains, how does it work? After all, many turn to service departments so that they cannot figure out whether it is working incorrectly, or they understood the purpose incorrectly.
Dry
There are quite a lot of dry conditioners on sale now. So, we will understand the principle of operation of this mode.
The design provides a special valve that distributes the pressure of freon in a certain way. As a result, the upper part of the evaporator heats up, and the bottom collects condensate. In turn, the fan mixes cold and warm air. As a result, the air conditioner blows in a warm, drained stream. Condensate is independently drained through a special hose to the street.
The mode is used without lowering the temperature. This allows you to maintain a comfortable microclimate in the room, while lowering the humidity. In addition, the use of the “dry” mode for drainage prevents the formation of fungus and mold, and reduces the risk of colds.
It can maintain indoor humidity from 35 to 60%.
Sometimes users try to reduce humidity with an air conditioner without this feature. Here the disadvantages immediately become obvious - without draining the temperature, draining does not occur.
Heat
This function helps to heat the room when the cold starts. The user sets a specific indicator, below which the temperature in the room should not fall. The air conditioner supports it, periodically starting and stopping the heating.
Many air conditioners can work for heating at outdoor temperatures of -5. Turning on the device at lower rates entails a breakdown, maybe not instant, but fast.
If you are interested in heating the premises in the winter, you should familiarize yourself with the maximum and minimum temperature limits before buying.
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 understaffed. 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 air supply. In fan mode, only the fan works, without heating or cooling.
Some models, therefore, provide not only ventilation, but also ionization, purification, oxygen saturation of the air and so on.Accordingly, these devices cost a little more and you need to refuel them.
Conclusion
We hope that now you understand the exact purpose of these functions and the principle of their work. Whether you personally need them is another question.
Use with pleasure!
