<p>The present invention discloses an air conditioner and a control method of the air conditioner which performs the preheating operation of a compressor by determining a preheating control time according to a predetermined condition. Further, the present invention discloses an air conditioner and a control method of the air conditioner which reduces the initial power consumption generated in preheating a compressor. According to the present invention, since a heater for preheating a compressor is not separately included by applying a current to a motor of the compressor and preheating the compressor through the heat generation of a coil in the case in which the preheating operation conditions of the compressor such as the exterior temperature and the operation states of an indoor unit and an outdoor unit are satisfied, the cost for the heater can be saved. Further, since the preheating operation is easily performed by using a rotor aligning method of the compressor motor, the power consumption is reduced.</p> |
