Pioneer Air Conditioners Review: Error Codes, Model Features Comparison

The Pioneer brand was registered on the Russian market “HVAC” back in 1997. The company was given the status of an OEM brand, which made air conditioning systems accessible to most of the consumer audience. The brand has truly become a pioneer in this technology industry. For 20 years of its activity, the manufacturer has successfully passed all stages of development and production improvement. Currently, a full range of modifications is presented in the company's lineup, including both domestic and industrial air conditioning systems.

The Pioneer ideology is based on four basic principles:

  • Impeccable quality, proven by a five-year warranty on manufactured goods.
  • Using components exclusively from the best suppliers in the segment.
  • A variety of models and orientation to all groups of customers due to the availability of most products.
  • Absolute safety for the consumer throughout the entire period of use.

The Pioneer brand has become a truly time-tested, and, therefore, rightfully credible customer. Official distributors offer brand products in the territory of not only the regions of the Russian Federation, but also in the countries of the former CIS.

Climate control inside any room is the key to good health and an increased level of comfort. Pioneer is a manufacturer of quality equipment that produces several types of products in almost all categories of modern technology. Inverter air conditioners of this brand are manufactured using the latest technologies that significantly increase the efficiency of devices with a noticeable reduction in energy consumption.

Variety of models

The objects for installing an air conditioner often become not only city apartments and private houses, but also production. Thanks to the extended model range, each Pioneer split system is able to satisfy even the highest customer requirements. Among the equipment modifications presented to date, the following groups of air conditioners are distinguished:

Each of the presented groups is successfully used on various types of buildings, which allows you to create an ideal climate, thereby increasing the comfort of people staying while working and working within the premises. The presence of an inverter in the air conditioning device allows you to achieve maximum cooling (heating) efficiency with minimal energy consumption. Such models are almost silent, which makes them indispensable for the arrangement of bedrooms, children's and office meeting rooms.

Household air conditioners

Pioneer provides the production of domestic air conditioners and split systems suitable for installation within residential premises, as well as small offices, shops and public institutions. The main task that the Pioneer air conditioner installation solves is the creation and management of optimal microclimate indicators. The operation of the equipment is effective within the premises, not exceeding an area of ​​80 m2. The blocks included in the system kit do not differ in bulky sizes, which means that they do not violate the overall design.

Models for domestic use have an extended list of basic technical characteristics:

  • aimed at creating optimal conditions for people to stay;
  • simplicity in management;
  • mode settings options;
  • unconditional environmental friendliness of both the entire structure and individual components;
  • maintaining public health;

Almost all models include a winter set of functions, which is especially true in Russia and the former CIS. Air conditioners are able to function not only in cooling mode, but also in air heating. Continuous improvement of technology has made it possible to achieve significant savings in energy consumption even under conditions of continuous increased loads.

Industrial systems

Such multi-split systems are designed to regulate the temperature in buildings with an area of ​​100 or more meters. These devices are distinguished by the increased power and variety of modifications available for purchase. Semi-industrial air conditioning systems are usually installed for restaurants, hotels, lounges, lounge-halls and office foyers. A review of this category of air conditioning equipment indicates a number of distinct advantages, for example:

  • power is up to 25 kW;
  • maximum service area - 250 m2;
  • increased degree of reliability;
  • system of protection of external blocks from frost and temperature changes.

Among the options for modern systems, there are such varieties as:

  1. Cassette installations with the "auto-swing" system and a washable air filter.
  2. Air conditioners channel type with built-in multi-speed cooler.
  3. Ceiling-floor devices designed to evenly distribute air flow around the perimeter of the entire room.

The ceiling model allows you to evenly distribute the incoming air due to the movements of the grilles of the blinds. The presence of the automatic settings mode allows you to maintain an optimal indoor climate due to the smooth distribution of the flow and a predetermined airflow rate.

Possible violations are displayed:

  • from E0 to E9 - violations, malfunctions and breakdowns in any part of the air conditioner (in the external and internal unit);
  • from EA to EP - a broken connection with an external unit or a mismatch of electric current parameters;
  • from P0 to P7 - overheating of the condenser and evaporator, improper operation of the unit, high voltage and current drops.

Quite often, the diode signal indicates the need for another cleaning. If the problem persists, it is better to contact a service provider for split systems and carry out a professional repair of the Pioneer air conditioner.
