Abstract:
A method for operating a packaged terminal air conditioner includes activating a compressor of the packaged terminal air conditioner such that refrigerant flows through an interior coil of the packaged terminal air conditioner, and, while the compressor is active, periodically cycling a fan of the packaged terminal air conditioner between a low speed active operating state and an inactive operating state. The fan runs at a modulated speed limit of the fan in the low speed active operating state, and the fan is unpowered in the inactive operating state.

Claim (Index 13):
A packaged terminal air conditioner, comprising:\n a casing; a compressor positioned within the casing, the compressor operable to increase a pressure of a refrigerant; an interior coil positioned within the casing; a fan positioned within the casing adjacent the interior coil; an exterior coil positioned within the casing opposite the interior coil; and a controller in operative communication with the compressor and the fan, the controller configured to\n activate a compressor of the packaged terminal air conditioner such that refrigerant flows through the interior coil; and \n while the compressor is active, periodically cycle the fan between a low speed active operating state and an inactive operating state, \n wherein the fan runs at a modulated speed limit of the fan in the low speed active operating state, and the fan does not urge air through the interior coil in the inactive operating state, and \n wherein a total time that the fan is in the low speed active operating state corresponds to a capacity of the compressor.
