REFRIGERANT LEAKAGE DETECTING METHOD FOR CLOTHES TREATING APPARATUS AND CLOTHES TREATING APPARATUS WITH REFRIGERANT LEAKAGE DETECTING MEANS

摘要

PURPOSE: A refrigerant leakage detecting method of a cloth treating device and a cloth treating device with a refrigerant leakage detecting unit are provided to increase energy efficiency. CONSTITUTION: A control unit senses a temperature(S01). The control unit senses a temperature at t2(S02). When a time interval, which is (t2-t1), is larger than determined A and a measured temperature difference is larger than predetermined B, the control unit checks an operation of a compressor(S03~S05). When the compressor operates, the control unit determines whether a refrigerant is leaked(S06).
