PRODUCT OVERVIEW HOW IT WORKS COOLING MODE 2 1 1 3 4 5 7 8 6 The compressor (6) in the external unit compresses the refrigerant into a high-temperature, high-pressure gas. When this gas flows along the cooling fins of the condenser (7), heat is exuded and the gas condenses into a liquid, which is then led to the evaporator (1) in the indoor unit. The liquid expands into a gas at a low temperature and low pressure.
