Abstract: An apparatus controls an appliance, the appliance including a compressor, a fan, and a heater. The apparatus includes a first switch for selectively coupling a first terminal with one of a second terminal and a third terminal in response to a first control signal. The first terminal is coupled with an energy source and the third terminal is coupled with the compressor. The apparatus further includes a second switch for selectively coupling the second terminal with the heater and the third terminal with the fan in response to a second control signal. The apparatus still further includes a control circuit coupled with the first switch and the second switch for generating the first control signal and the second control signal. A relay drive circuit couples relay coils in series to control the first switch, the second switch, and the third switch. A bypass switch allows a single current to selectively energize one or both relay coils.

Abstract: A defrost recycle apparatus and method for use with a temperature control system is provided. The temperature control system includes a heat transfer unit for removing heat from an enclosed space. The temperature control system automatically defrosts the heat transfer unit based upon a default defrost control strategy. After the termination of a defrost operation initiated according to the default defrost control strategy, the defrost recycle apparatus determines if the defrost operation was successful (completely defrosted the heat transfer unit) based upon two parameters associated with the defrost operation. In the preferred embodiment, the defrost recycle apparatus determines the success of the defrost operation based upon the temperature in the vicinity of the heat transfer unit after a predetermined period of time has elapsed after the termination of the defrost operation.

Abstract: A process is described for providing clear extended compositions of essential oils which comprises a composition of an essential oil and an extender material miscible with said essential oil which does not appreciably alter the aroma of the essential oil insofar as its quality or strength is concerned, the proportion of essential oil in extender material being from about 70% up to about 99%, said extender material being an acylated dimerization product of an alpha methyl styrene or a methyl or other C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 lower alkyl homologue thereof or hydrogenated derivative thereof or mixture of same.
