Disclosed are a clothes treating apparatus and an operating method thereof. For a clothes treating apparatus comprising a drum (110) configured to accommodate therein an object to be dried, an air suction duct (140) configured to form a flow path of air introduced into the drum, an auxiliary fan (185) configured to introduce air into the air suction duct (120), an air exhaustion duct (140) configured to form a flow path of air exhausted from the drum, a main fan (180) configured to exhaust air to the air exhaustion duct (140) from the drum, a condenser (130) disposed to heat air sucked into the drum through the air suction duct (120), an evaporator (135) disposed to cool air exhausted from the drum through the air exhaustion duct (140), and a compressor (150) and an expander (160) configured to constitute a heat pump together with the condenser and the evaporator, the method includes measuring a discharge side pressure (Pd) of the compressor, and comparing the measured discharge side pressure (Pd) with a maximum allowable pressure (Pm), and determining that the auxiliary fan (185) does not operate when the discharge side pressure (Pd) is more than the maximum allowable pressure (Pm). |
