Abstract

L'invention concerne un climatiseur dans lequel le nettoyage d'un échangeur de chaleur d'intérieur peut être annulé. Ce climatiseur (100) comprend : un circuit de réfrigérant (Q) dans lequel circule un réfrigérant pendant un cycle de réfrigération, le réfrigérant s'écoulant à travers des composants dans l'ordre suivant : un compresseur (31), un condenseur, un détendeur d'extérieur (34) et un évaporateur ; et un moyen de commande qui commande au moins le compresseur (31) et le détendeur d'extérieur (34). Parmi le condenseur et l'évaporateur, l'un est un échangeur de chaleur d'extérieur (32), et l'autre est un échangeur de chaleur d'intérieur (12). En fonction d'un signal provenant d'une télécommande ou d'un terminal mobile, le moyen de commande annule une opération de refroidissement après la création de gel ou de condensation dans l'échangeur de chaleur d'intérieur (12), ou après la réalisation d'une opération de chauffage.
