Abstract
A heating and/or air-conditioning installation has a de-icing outlet with a de-icing opening adjoining a window, an air-diffusion element with a low output per unit surface area, and an air-distributing element. The air-distributing element has at least a first and a second position. In the first position it blocks the air-diffusion element to ensure de-icing of the window. In the second, it partially blocks the de-icing region so that the output per unit surface area via the de-icing region corresponds to diffusion at a low output per unit surface area, such that the de-icing region and the air-diffusion element provide air diffusion at a low output per unit surface area and their air flows mix.
