    Abstract: The disclosure relates to an air conditioner and a control method thereof, the air conditioner including: a housing including an inlet and an outlet through which air is introduced and discharged; a fan driver configured to drive air introduced through the inlet to be discharged through the outlet; a filter configured to filter the introduced air; a sensor configured to detect a foreign material in air; a storage configured to store information; and a processor configured to control the storage to store information about mass concentration of the foreign material in air detected by the sensor, and calculate a remaining life of the filter based on the information stored in the storage. Thus, the air conditioner can identify proper time to replace the filter by calculating the remaining life of the filter.
