Climatic equipment Lentel is a trademark of the Lenta supermarket chain. The division offers convectors, fan heaters, electric kettles and other household appliances. The goods were ordered from Chinese manufacturers, the main requirement is quality and affordable cost. Until 2016, you could buy a mobile air conditioner of this brand. Sales are currently paused.
The main line of air conditioners and products
The company's specialization is only mobile climate technology. The split system was not designed or produced. There is no information on expanding the range so far, in the future, with increasing demand for this type of equipment, it is possible to introduce a new line of goods.
Overview of portable climate systems:
- GLAC001N. The flagship model, which differs from its analogues in a unique design and good functionality. Features of the appearance of the mobile device are the round shape of the case, the large size of the air duct grille, and convenient indication of current modes on the LCD display. The cooling area is up to 14 m².
- B1-07. This floor cooler occupies an average position in terms of functionality and ease of use. Differences - a convenient carrying handle, a gray body, an informative control panel. The disadvantages include a small area of working blinds.
- YPO 07C. The portable unit is designed for cooling and heating living rooms. In contrast to the above model, there are three modes of operation, a timer for 24 hours, the condensate evaporation unit is improved. It is characterized by more strict forms, the LCD display and control buttons are located above the grill. Designed for maintenance of premises ranging from 10 to 14 m².
Each Lentel mobile air conditioner was equipped with a convenient control panel, corrugated plastic pipe with a diameter of 110 mm for venting hot air. Products were sold only in the Lenta supermarket chain. Applications for repairs and maintenance were also accepted there.
The disadvantage of these models is the high noise level. At maximum power, it can reach 46 dB. Activation at night or during sleep is not recommended. Unlike wall-mounted models, the Lentel floor air conditioner does not have a night mode of operation.
Comparison of the characteristics of popular models
The main advantage of this climatic equipment is that the air conditioner can be installed independently. It is necessary to ensure the exit of hot air to the street or into the ventilation duct of the house, if this is allowed by technical conditions. In addition, technical specifications and performance should be considered.
Basic selection options:
- Nominal cooling and heating power. All devices of this company are designed for room service up to 14 m². In practice, it is recommended to install in rooms up to 12 m².
- Dimensions Lentel mobile air conditioner has large dimensions - 300 * 756 * 352 mm. It is necessary to pre-select the place of its installation, taking into account the length of the pipe for exhausting hot air.
- Remote control. With this option, you can switch modes of operation from a distance. It is important that there are no obstacles between the device and the remote control.
- Service. The basic parameter is the rate of filling the condensate tray in significance of the cooling rate. Some models are equipped with an evaporator so that this process proceeds more slowly.
Due to the long absence of climatic equipment from this manufacturer, it is difficult to find up-to-date instructions for sale. The table shows the available information about the technical parameters of the models.
| Model | GLAC001N | YPO 07C |
| Cooling / heating power | 1,6/1,4 | 1,7/1,5 |
| Power consumption | 0,95/0,9 | 1/0,95 |
| Ventilation mode | there is | there is |
| Timer | No | there is |
| Air consumption | 250 | 300 |
| Refrigerant | R-410A | R-410A |
| Price | 7000 | 10999 |
For these models, the last price indicated was in stores of the Lenta chain. Currently, only used climate equipment from this manufacturer is on sale.
Advantages - the use of modern refrigerant R-410A. It circulates in a closed system, but even with a breakdown of the trunk and depressurization, it will not harm others and the environment. Although refueling and cleaning pipes should be done only by specialists.
Instructions for the control panel and air conditioners Lentel
The contents of the user manual are standard - they describe the rules of service, recommendations for installing and selecting operating modes. A separate part is devoted to remote control of the system. A standard remote control for the air conditioner is attached to the equipment. Range of action - up to 6 meters.
Features of operation of the remote control:
- the ability to turn on and off the candy bar;
- change in cooling or heating power;
- timer activation, but not for all models;
- display on the LCD display of current performance indicators.
The disadvantages of the remote control device include the lack of a built-in temperature sensor and backlight. But given the price category - this is normal. As an alternative, you can consider the option of purchasing a universal remote control, with which you can control not only the climate monoblock, but also other household appliances.
You can also highlight the basic rules of service:
- Cleaning and replacing the air filter. You can do it yourself.
- Refrigerant charge. Due to the lack of nodes connecting to the highway, special couplings are needed. This work is done only by specialized specialists.
- Heat exchanger and evaporator maintenance. They are located in the housing and to access them you need to completely disassemble the candy bar.
Instructions for air conditioners contain only general recommendations for maintenance. If you identify significant problems in the work or breakdown, you need to contact specialists.
Lentel Air Conditioner Error Codes
During operation, breakdowns and malfunctions are not excluded. When they appear on the LCD, error codes are displayed. However, their decryption is absent, they are necessary only for the master, so that he can determine the cause of the malfunctions.
Monoblock problems are most often caused by such factors:
- The ingress of dust and dirt through slots for air. They are located at the bottom of the unit.
- Circulation of humid air. May cause a quick failure of moving parts.
- It is difficult to remove hot air. The consequence is overheating of system components.
To minimize these phenomena, it is recommended that at least once a year, comprehensive preventive measures be taken.
User reviews
Most of the opinions of consumers indicate affordable cost and acceptable indicators of reliability models. Some reviews describe the discrepancy between the declared and actual characteristics, in particular - the maximum area of the premises served. In fact, effective cooling is only possible for rooms of no more than 12 m².
Benefits:
- reasonable price category;
- no professional installation needed;
- mobility.
Disadvantages:
- relatively quick wear;
- the complexity of the service;
- large candy bar.
We can conclude that the climatic equipment of this manufacturer belongs to the economy category. This is the cause of the above disadvantages, but their affordable price levels them out.
