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 slow in frosting speed,so that the whole self-cleaning time is long, and the normal experience of a user is influenced. In order to solve the problem, 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 composed of an indoor solution film, an outdoor solution film, a liquid pump and a liquid storagetank; the self-cleaning control method comprises the steps that under the
refrigeration working condition, frequency ascending is carried out on a compressor, an indoor fan of the air conditioner isclosed, and the rotating speed of the liquid pump is increased, so that an indoor
heat exchanger is frosted; after the indoor
heat exchanger is frosted, an
electronic expansion valve is closed firstly, and then an
electromagnetic valve at the low pressure side of the compressor is closed after a preset time; and the indoor
heat exchanger is heated, so that the indoor heat exchanger is subjected todefrosting cleaning. According to the self-cleaning control method for the air conditioner, the self-cleaning efficiency of the indoor heat exchanger can be improved, and the user experience can be improved.
