Does the compressor & the fan shuts off on energy save mode when the room reach set temperature? or only the compressor shuts off & the fan continues

The compressor always shuts off if the temperature is reached in any mode, in energy saver mode the fan shuts off as well.

Both of them turn off once the set temperature is reached while in energy saver mode

Not sure about the energy saver mode shut down, but the unit as a whole is wonderful and has lowered my electricity bill for air conditioning dramatically.

very low energy use because of the small size of the fan. There are three fan speeds low, med, high. You set the humidity level you are comfortable with. When that level is reached the fan shuts off until the level drops and then it turns on again. We have a 1800 sq ft home and it keeps it at 40% humidity with no noticable spike in power use.

Yes when you use the heater. When the room reaches the temp that you set the heater on it will shut off than come back on when the room starts to cool off.

The fan shuts off with the compressor. Bought this to replace a four year old unit from Lowes that ran continuously. This Keystone works great, I should have bought it a year ago. It dries the air quickly then cycles on & off as needed. Very quiet compared the old one.

Yes. Shuts down the fan, not just the compressor, when temperature is reached.

Allot of confusion here, I was told the fan runs all the time and since some say they claim their fan does not, I called Frigidaire and they say the FAN DOES RUN ALL THE TIME, only thing that cycles is the compressor. The fan is energy efficient and keeps air on the move doing a better job, but...their own manual does not state the fan operates all the time. Not sure what models some have that claim the fan turns off when the humidiy level is reached......seems to be allot of confusion over this.

To add to Rachel's comment, the fan will stay on for a short while when the unit is shut off (or it is automatically shut off via the thermostat). This may be a safety feature to cool the inside down and/or extract the remaining heat.

The Whynter ARC-12SD includes a thermostat which controls the compressor of the air conditioner. When the set temperature is reached, the compressor (cooling function) of the unit turns off but the fan continues to run to circulate the air inside the room. The air conditioner does not shut off when the set temperature is reached.Please feel free to contact us at customer.service@whynter.com.

yes it has an energy saver mode...I just set the temperature at 77 and the fan on low...it performs well...

Indoor fan shuts off if in heat mode but not in air conditioning mode. Don't know if this is normal or not.

yeah. that is how it works. the fan stays on while the compressor un-freezes. Sorry to hear you bought one of those. They are pretty lousy and low quality. Mine died after very little use just after the warranty ran out.

Charles,The unit has been a little disappointing, but not enough to return it. The humidity it measures is about 15% off, so I just compensate for that. If you set it for 60%, the compressor and fan will run until it reaches 57%, which seemed a bit odd to me. The unit does not measure temp, as was advertised. The fan does shut off once it has overachieved on the desired setting.

Is the compressor running or just the fan/coil unit after the temperature is reached? Does it cut off after a couple of minutes? If it just keeps running, it sounds like it might have been wired incorrectly, assuming the "Fan" switch isn't in the "On" position (if it is, switch it to the "Auto" position). If it just continues to run for a couple of minutes, I think the thermostat is likely programmed to do that as a (mildly misguided) effort at efficiency by taking advantage of the low refrigerant temperature that lingers a bit after the compressor has shut off. I actually don't have this model (and am not sure why Amazon thinks I do), and I am going from the behavior of the model TX5000Ua that I do have.

That depends on what you are doing in the room. I leave mine on all the time, in ECO mode. It's off most of the time (the fan is off), and it will turn on when it needs to, and turn on high if it detects extra dirty air, until the air is clean again, then it goes to low mode or off.

Not sure if this is what you mean, but it has a thermostat and if its set at 70 it shuts off at 70. If the room cools below 70, it cuts on again...

Just bought one. The fan does NOT run all the time. Fan always runs when compressor runs and sometimes runs when compressor is off. Fan shuts off soon after compressor does, but periodically runs so that humidity sensor can sample the room air. If air is too moist, the compressor kicks in. If not, fan turns back off. Sensible design.

When the desired humidity is reached and the compressor shuts off, the fan does continue to run. It will continue to cycle the air and if you have the uv light option turned on it will freshen the air as it cycles through the dehumidifier.
