Abstract

Examples of the present disclosure relate to systems and methods for incorporating an auxiliary heat exchanger into a refrigerant fluid circuit of a side-discharge outdoor unit of a climate control system, and operating the climate control system in combination with the auxiliary heat exchanger. The auxiliary heat exchanger may be configured to reduce refrigerant fluid temperatures at points in the refrigerant fluid circuit before reaching a primary outdoor heat exchanger of the outdoor unit. In general, available space along the top portion of an outdoor side-discharge unit may be utilized to house the auxiliary heat exchanger. In some examples, a bypass valve may be provided to include or exclude the auxiliary heat exchanger from the refrigerant fluid circuit during operation of the climate control system in various modes.
