Air Conditioner - Slinger Ring
The slinger ring is a standard design in room air conditioners. Most of the time you do not know that the slinger ring is operating. This article explains the slinger ring feature.
Understanding the Purpose of the Slinger Ring In an Air Conditioner
All room air conditioners have a "slinger ring" around the rear fan blade. The ring is designed to pick water up off the bottom of the pan and throw it against the condenser coils. This design feature helps improve the efficiency of the air conditioner by reducing heat on the coils, and helps remove moisture from the pan.
- It is normal to hear a pinging or sloshing sound as the fan blade moves through the water.
