AIR CONDITIONER

摘要

There is provided an air conditioner which is easy to use and by which the user can confirm the level of energy saving of the operation being performed merely by viewing a display, and can easily recognize whether or not an energy-saving operation in which electric power consumption is reduced is being performed. The air conditioner includes a dehumidifying means for removing water in the air; an air blowing means, consisting of a motor and a blower fan, that sucks air in a room and blows out dried air, which is obtained by causing the sucked air to pass through the dehumidifying means, into the interior of the room; a humidity detecting means; a temperature detecting means; a surface temperature detecting means for detecting the surface temperature in the room within a predetermined range; a displaying means for displaying information by using one or both of letters and figures; and a controlling means for controlling the air blowing means, the temperature detecting means, and the displaying means. From the surface temperature detected by the surface temperature detecting means, the controlling means detects, within the predetermined range, that objects to be dried such as wet clothing are arranged; and according to the detection result, the number of rotations of the blower fan is changed during the operation of the dehumidifying means or the air blowing means, and further, according to the changed number of rotations, the level of energy saving is displayed on the displaying means.
