indendørsenhed

An indendørsenhed, or indoor unit, is a component of a split system air conditioner or heat pump. It is responsible for conditioning the air within a specific room or zone of a building. Typically, it houses the evaporator coil, a fan, and an air filter. The evaporator coil is where the refrigerant absorbs heat from the indoor air, thus cooling it. The fan then circulates this cooled air back into the room. The air filter removes dust, pollen, and other airborne particles from the air before it passes over the evaporator coil and is recirculated.

Indendørsenheder come in various designs to suit different aesthetic and functional requirements. Common types include wall-mounted units, which are the most prevalent and are installed high on a wall; ceiling cassette units, which are recessed into the ceiling and distribute air in multiple directions; and floor-standing units, which are placed on the floor, often beneath a window. Ducted indoor units are also available, where the conditioned air is distributed through a network of ducts to multiple rooms.

The indendørsenhed is connected via refrigerant lines and electrical wiring to an outdoor unit, which houses the compressor and condenser. The outdoor unit releases the heat absorbed from the indoor air into the outside environment. The combined operation of the indoor and outdoor units allows for efficient climate control within a building, providing cooling in the summer and, in the case of heat pumps, heating in the winter. Many modern indendørsenheder also offer dehumidification functions and can be controlled remotely via a thermostat or smartphone application.
