The invention belongs to the technical field of air conditioners, and aims to solve the problem that the self-cleaning
control mode of an existing air conditioner is generally relatively slow in frosting speed, so that the whole self-cleaning time is long, and the normal experience of a user is influenced. The invention provides a self-cleaning control method for an air conditioner. The air conditioner comprises a
refrigerant circulation
system and a solution circulation
system, wherein the self-cleaning control method comprises the following steps that the frequency of a compressor is reducedunder the
refrigeration working condition, a four-way valve is subjected to reversing, the frequency of the compressor is raised, the opening degree of an
electronic expansion valve is reduced, the rotating speed of an outdoor fan of the air conditioner is reduced, the rotating speed of a liquid pump is improved, the
voltage of an indoor solution film and the
voltage of an outdoor solution film are increased, and an outdoor
heat exchanger is frosted; after the outdoor
heat exchanger is frosted, the
electronic expansion valve is turned off, an
electromagnetic valve at the low pressure side ofthe compressor is turned off after the preset time, and the outdoor
heat exchanger is heated, so that the outdoor heat exchanger is subjected to
defrosting cleaning. According to the self-cleaning control method, the self-cleaning efficiency of the outdoor heat exchanger can be improved, and the experience of a user is improved.
