ABSTRACT:
In a self-contained air conditioner unit of the reversible refrigeration system type having cooling and heating cycles, a no-drain heat pump is provided wherein in the heating cycle, water collected on the outdoor heat exchanger operating as the system evaporator is transferred by a condensate disposal system to the indoor section. The condensate is atomized and directed into the indoor air flow and against the relatively warm indoor heat exchanger operating as the condenser to humidify the air. Control means are provided that prevent the condensate disposal system from directing condensate into the indoor air flow during the cooling cycle.
