The Slovenian company Gorenje is a well-known manufacturer of household appliances. She was one of the first in the country to receive the European EMAS certificate. The product range includes household and climatic appliances. Modern Gorenje air conditioners differ not only in quality, but also in functionality recognized by the design.
The main line of air conditioners and products
Climatic equipment of the company is represented by split systems, which differ from each other in appearance and technical parameters. Features - you can buy a separate outdoor or indoor unit. It is important that their characteristics match. Only inverter models have been launched.
Each split Gorenje system is characterized by a standard design - white body color, convenient and informative display, slightly rounded edges of the indoor unit. Types of climatic equipment of the Kas series:
- Nf3d. Standard indoor unit with convenient indication of current parameters. Advantages - when the heating mode is activated, energy class A. The change in the direction of the horizontal air flow is carried out in manual mode, the fluctuations of the blinds up and down in automatic mode.
- Nf3sd. A gray vertical line runs in the central part of the indoor unit. It has a LCD display. In inactive mode it is not visible, which is convenient for users. A feature of the air conditioner is the ability to connect a Wi-Fil module for remote control.
In addition to air conditioning, all models have the functions of drainage, heating and ventilation. There are many modes of operation, including night. Another advantage is the use of the safe R410A refrigerant. In the event of a leak, it will not affect the health of residents. But to avoid this, you need the correct installation of the air conditioner by professionals.
For operational cooling of the room, it is recommended to activate Turbo mode. The fan starts at maximum speed, as does the power of the outdoor unit.
