Summary: | An air conditioner has a refrigeration system with a compressor, a motor for air-circulating fans, indoor and outdoor heat exchangers and a four-way valve connected through refrigerant conduits such that it can be operated selectably both for cooling and for heating. An electric heater is also provided for heating. An electrical circuit for the air conditioner has a series connection of (1) a first temperature switch which opens when the temperature of the motor becomes too high, (2) a thermostat of an ordinary kind which places its connector piece in an open or closed position by comparing room temperature with a user-set temperature level, (3) a relay which controls the switching of the compressor of the air conditioner on and off, and (4) a second temperature switch which opens when the temperature of the electric heater becomes too high. |
