Abstract
A reheat system of an air conditioning unit includes a bypass line that fluidly couples an outlet of a reheat coil to an input end of a metering device. Further, the reheat system includes a reheat exit line that fluidly couples the outlet of the reheat coil to an input of a condenser. A bypass valve is disposed in the bypass line and a reheat valve is disposed in the reheat exit line. A controller is configured to control the bypass valve and the reheat valve such that a refrigerant from the outlet of the reheat coil is routed to the metering device via the bypass line when an ambient temperature is greater than or equal to a cut-off temperature value that is indicative of a high ambient temperature condition at which the condenser begins operating as an evaporator.
