<p>At the bottom of the front panel of an indoor unit of an air conditioner there is provided a light receiving/monitor section (4) which has a built-in a humidity sensor (8). A decision is made as to which of the low humidity range, the optimum humidity range and the high humidity range the humidity sensed by the humidity sensor (8) lies in. The decision result is indicated by a lamp (9a, 9b or 9c). The optimum humidity range can be varied by a microcomputer by comparison of a sensed indoor temperature with a target preset temperature, or by a user's manual operation. Automatic adjustment is made at the end of a timed interval after cooling or heating is stopped. If a humidifier is provided, operation thereof may be controlled simultaneously with the indication of the sensed humidity. Each lamp may be an LED. <IMAGE></p> |
