摘要： The present disclosure proposes a method for when the Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) is called for by a thermostat, the GeoFlo HVAC System first exhausts a heat sink in the basement, before calling for an evaporator to be activated. When the heat sink in the basement is cooling the conditioned space, by geothermally dispersing heat into the earth, the GeoFlo HVAC turns off the evaporator. Alternatively, the system acts as a substitute for an AC evaporator. Variations of the GeoFlo HVAC system and a control box designed to move heat from one area of a building to another using the existing HVAC system are also disclosed.

摘要： In an air conditioner, a drain extraction unit and a refrigerant pipe connecting unit may be disposed in a blocking region in which a discharge port is not provided so that a size of the discharge port may be secured and the discharge port may be uniformly disposed, thereby generating uniform airflow in a room. In a lower housing formed in a circular shape, some of components inside an indoor unit of the air conditioner may be disposed in a protrusion portion that protrudes from the circular housing, thereby facilitating the installation of the air conditioner. A condensate water collecting space disposed outside the housing may be provided in a drain tray, thereby efficiently preventing a leakage due to condensate water generated outside the housing. The housing, the drain tray, and the cover member of the air conditioner may be coupled by a coupling member coupled outside.

摘要： Disclosed are an air conditioner indoor unit and an air conditioner. The air conditioner indoor unit includes a housing, a volute assembly, an air deflector and a louver assembly. The housing is provided with an air outlet and the volute assembly is disposed in the housing. The volute assembly includes an upper volute and a lower volute forming an air outlet duct communicating with the air outlet therebetween. The air deflector is rotatably mounted at the air outlet to open or close the air outlet, and a middle portion of at least one end of the air deflector in a length direction is rotatably connected to the housing through a rotation shaft, to make the air deflector have an upward-opening state in which the air deflector is rotated around the rotation shaft to bring a lower side of the air deflector to come close to the upper volute and a downward-opening state in which the air deflector is rotated around the rotation shaft to bring an upper side of the air deflector to come close to the lower volute. The louver assembly is connected to a windward surface of the air deflector.

摘要： An air conditioner and an air guide for an air conditioner are provided, the air guide being configured to guide air to a cross-flow fan of the air conditioner. The air conditioner may include a case including a front panel and a rear panel, the front panel including an intake grill and an outlet, a cross-flow fan and a heat exchanger being disposed inside of the case. The rear panel may include an air guide. The air guide may include a first guide surface inclined toward the cross-flow fan, and a second guide surface positioned at a downstream side of the first guide surface. The first guide surface may include at least one distribution guide that distributes and guides air, and thus, the air having been equally distributed by means of the at least one distribution guide may be suctioned into the cross-flow fan so that vortex generation is prevented, thereby enabling noise to be reduced.
