Abstract
A method and a system for monitoring an abnormality at an air outlet of a dehumidifier. The method comprises: identifying whether there is a blockage abnormality at the air outlet of the dehumidifier; after a blockage abnormality has been identified, starting a high wind-level operation of the dehumidifier or controlling air deflectors of the dehumidifier to be reset; after the high wind-level operation has run for a set time period or after the air deflectors are reset, identifying whether the blockage abnormality has been eliminated; and after it has been identified that the blockage abnormality has not been eliminated, controlling the dehumidifier to stop running, and sending out a fault cue. The method and system disclosed can avoid influences on the operation, service life and reliability of the dehumidifier due to a long-term blockage at the air outlet of the dehumidifier.
