    摘要: An air conditioner includes a housing, an outdoor heat exchanger assembly including an outdoor heat exchanger and an outdoor fan, an indoor heat exchanger assembly including an indoor heat exchanger and an indoor fan, an intake conduit defining a make-up air (MUA) air flow path, a MUA fan provided in the MUA air flow path, and a heater bank. A method of operating an air conditioner includes determining that a heating function of the air conditioner is inactive; activating the MUA fan to supply MUA to the indoor heat exchanger while the heating function is inactive; determining a supplemental heating condition after activating the MUA fan; and activating the heater bank to heat the MUA within the MUA air flow path in response to determining the supplemental heating condition.
