thermostat, when in the A

changes to heat or cool with an appropriate room
temperature change). The fan can be set to O

causing continuous evaporator (indoor) fan operation
or set to A
AU

TO
O causing fan operation to coincide with
heating or cooling run cycles. Continuous fan mode
during Cooling operation may not be appropriate in
humid climates. If the indoor air exceeds 60% relative
humidity or simply feels uncomfortably humid, it is
recommended that the fan only be used in the A

With the disconnect switch in the O

is supplied to the control transformer. The cooling
cycle is enabled through the low voltage side of the
control transformer to the “R

thermostat. With the comfort control set to A

valve coil ((S

With the comfort control set to O

to the transformer. Starting at the “R

indoor comfort control, current goes through the
system switch (which is in “A

T

1 contacts. When closed, these contacts supply
power to terminal “Y
Y” on the indoor thermostat as well
as to the heating anticipator. The switch-over valve will
not energize because of the high resistance of the
heating anticipator in the thermostat. Power is
provided from “Y
Y” to the compressor contactor ((C

which starts the compressor and outdoor fan motor.
The indoor thermostat contact T

2 contacts close providing
power to the “W

and to the supplementary heater control circuit. An
outdoor thermostat may have been added to disallow
the second stage (if provided) of electric heat above a
selected outdoor temperature. If the outdoor
temperature falls below the setting on the outdoor
thermostat, this additional heater stage will come on.
When the outdoor air temperature rises, and the
outdoor T-stat setpoint is reached, the system will
revert back to first stage electric heating.

During the heating cycle, the outdoor coil may require
a defrost cycle which is determined by the demand
defrost control ((D
DF
FC
C)). This control continuously
measures the outdoor coil temperature ((C
CB
BS
S)) and the
outdoor ambient temperature ((O
OD
DS
S--B
B)) and calculates
the difference or delta-T measurement. When the
calculated delta-T is met, the demand defrost control
((D

((O

placing the unit in the cooling mode to defrost the
outdoor coil. The outdoor coil temperature sensor
((C

fifteen minutes in defrost, the ((D

heating mode. Supplementary electric heat, if
provided, is brought on to control indoor temperature
during the defrost cycle.
