Abstract: Disclosed is a method for controlling a laundry treating apparatus, wherein the laundry treating apparatus includes: a drum having a laundry storage space defined therein; a duct defining a channel for supplying air discharged from the drum back to the drum; a fan to move air along the duct; a heat-absorber for removing moisture from air introduced into the duct; a heat-emitter disposed inside the duct to heat air passing through the heat-absorber; a water collector for storing therein water discharged from air passing through the heat-absorber; a first filter for filtering air flowing from the drum to the duct; a second filter positioned between the first filter and the heat-absorber and filtering air passing through the first filter; a water discharger having a water storage space defined therein; a water discharger supply pipe for supplying water stored in the water collector to the water discharger; a water ejector for ejecting water into at least one of the second filter or the heat-absorber; a water ejector supply pipe for supplying water stored in the water collector to the water ejector; a water supply pipe constructed to connect the water discharger and the water collector to each other; a water supply valve for controlling opening and closing of the water supply pipe.
