An HVAC actuator (1) comprises a motor (12), a motor controller (13) coupled to the motor (12), and a heating apparatus (14) thermally coupled to the HVAC actuator (1). The HVAC actuator (1) further comprises a condensation controller (15) coupled to the heating apparatus (14). The condensation controller (15) is configured to monitor at least one condensation parameter, and to control the heating apparatus (14) using the at least one condensation parameter.

In one embodiment, an overflow sensor assembly of an HVAC unit includes a sensor mounting bracket that is configured to be coupled to a mounting surface of the HVAC unit such that sensor probes of the overflow sensor assembly are suspended within and extend into a condensate drain pan of the HVAC unit. The sensor probes are defined by a sensor element that is coupled to the sensor mounting bracket and a spring that is coupled to the sensor element. The sensor probes are configured to activate an overflow detection circuit when the sensor probes come in contact with condensate fluid collected in the condensate drain pan prior to the condensate fluid overflowing from the condensate drain pan.

Enhancements to an air handler of an air conditioning system. The enhancements can include a scent dispersion system, a heat exchanger rinse system, and/or an air handler condensation drain pipe flush system. The scent dispersion system employs a pressure differential established within the air handler to draw a scent mist from a scent reservoir. The scent is disbursed throughout the structure by the air conditioning ventilation system. The heat exchanger rinse system dispenses a rinse fluid onto the heat exchanger. A cleaning composition can be injected into the rinse fluid to aid in the cleaning process. The flush system automatically configures a check valve upstream of the flush injection point. A flush fluid flows through the drain pipe applying a pressure to dislodge a blockage therein. A chemical composition can be added into the flush fluid to assist in the dislodging process.

A system comprising a conditioning system with one or more cooling coils configured to allow air to pass through the cooling coils to reduce a temperature of the air as well as an extraction portion with a plurality of condensing plates configured to receive conditioned air and configured to cause a portion water vapor of the conditioned air to collect and form liquid water, and a reservoir configured to receive collected liquid water from the plurality of condensing plates.

The present disclosure is directed to implementation of an environmental control unit using rotomolded techniques to fabricate the structures of the unit instead of the standard conventional sheet metal, extruded, forged, and punched parts. Such implementations will provide a lighter weight and more durable mechanical configuration that will also simplify inspection, simplify assembly/disassembly, and reduce fabrication costs. Implementations incorporate rotationally-molded interlocking structures to contain and attach the critical items of the ECU's mechanical components including the compressor, and the indoor and outdoor coils, as well as the fan and blower motor assembly. In one implementation, the rotomolded structure is strengthened and insulated (thermally and acoustically) by filling the interior void of the rotationally molded structure with a closed-cell foam.

A condensate drain line cleaning system including a coil attachment assembly and a drain attachment assembly is disclosed herein. The coil attachment assembly includes a tubing body configured to be connected to the drain line that is attached to the evaporator coil of an existing air conditioning unit. The drain attachment assembly is configured to be connecting to the existing drain line located outside a user's home. A user then pours a cleaning solution into an opening in the coil attachment assembly. Afterwards, a user then actuates a shut off valve disposed on the drain attachment assembly. A user then pours hot water into the opening of the coil attachment assembly to activate the cleaner therein. After waiting a certain amount of time, the user may then re-open the shut of valve to drain all the waste present in the drain line.

A thermally broken panel assembly includes a first panel member, a second panel member, a first insulating member, and a second insulating member. The first panel member includes a first base member, a first wall extending outwardly from an outer edge of the first base member, and a first flange extending inwardly from an upper end of the first wall. The first insulating member is disposed between the first wall of the first panel member and a third wall of the second panel member. The second insulating member is disposed between the first base member of the first panel member and a second base member of the second panel member. A gap is disposed between an inner edge of the first flange of the first panel member and a second wall of the second panel member in an extension direction of the first flange.

Disclosed are an air outlet structure, an air outlet method for an air conditioner, and the air conditioner. The air outlet structure may include: a main air outlet channel, a main air outlet, an auxiliary air outlet and an adjusting device; the main air outlet and the auxiliary air outlet are communicated with the main air outlet channel; the adjusting device is provided between the main air outlet channel and the auxiliary air outlet as to make the main air outlet channel send out air through the main air outlet and/or the auxiliary air outlet. With the above structure, the air conditioner may have a broad air supplying scope and a uniform air speed and supply the air to an entire plane, and comfort of the air conditioner may be improved. Thus, the problem that an existing air conditioner has non-uniform air outlet effect may be effectively solved.

An air-conditioning system is provided that may include a first air-processing apparatus, which includes a first outlet formed to be open toward a floor and a first inlet formed to be open in a direction inclined relative to a direction in which the first outlet is open and is configured to deliver heat-exchanged air to the first outlet, and a second air-processing apparatus, which includes a second outlet formed to be open in a direction parallel to the first outlet and a second inlet formed to be open in a direction parallel to the first inlet and is configured to deliver purified air to the second outlet. The first outlet and the second outlet extend in a lateral direction, and the first air-processing apparatus and the second air-processing apparatus are arranged in the lateral direction.
