Abstract
Examples of the present disclosure relate to climate control systems and outdoor units that use humidity measurements associated with the outdoor environment to improve the operation of one or more components. In some examples, an outdoor unit of a climate control system includes a housing, a compressor located within the housing that circulate a refrigerant fluid, and a humidity sensor that detects a humidity condition of an outdoor environment. The outdoor unit may further include control circuitry that controls the compressor by establishing a target parameter, where the target parameter is associated with a property of a refrigerant fluid. The control circuitry may further receive measurements associated with the humidity condition of the outdoor environment, adjust the target parameter based on the measurement, monitor the property of the refrigerant fluid, compare the monitored property to the adjusted target parameter, and adjust operation of the compressor based on the comparison.
