The manufacturer of air conditioners GREE presents a very large selection of business and premium models, which allows you to choose any device according to the individual budget of the buyer. In Russia, not only split systems with various types of internal modules are for sale, but also semi-industrial multi-splits and multi-zone air conditioners that can be used for VRF and VRV installations.
Most of the GREE turnover is air conditioners for wall, cassette, duct, floor and ceiling and other types. We can say that the split systems of this brand are leaders in the market of HVAC equipment in the field of sales. This is not surprising - the model range is diverse, the build quality is much higher than average, and the technical characteristics of GREE air conditioners make them convenient to use for any type of room.
GREE split systems: types, specifications, advantages
Wall conditioners
Devices of this brand are presented in a large serial variety, but they all have a number of common technical characteristics and similar functionality, and these are:
- high energy efficiency;
- increased operating temperature maximum;
- exact maintenance of the set parameters;
- silent work;
- perfect filtration system;
- volume distribution of air flows.
The highest levels of energy-efficient operation were noted in the CHANGE series due to the inverter type of compressor control. The U-CROWN line is capable of providing cooling and heating at extreme temperature values outside the window - from -30 to + 54 ° С. The U-COOL premium range has the most accurate dimensions, 7 fan speeds and a low-frequency compressor. U-POEM, again premium, has the same fan, dehumidification mode and, most importantly, an interesting palette of color solutions.
If you pay attention to the business-class lineups, the BEAUTY series, which allows you to install air conditioning of this line even in the bedrooms, stands out with its completely silent operation. ARTFUL are the models with the thinnest indoor units and the deep cleaning function through an antimicrobial filter coated in silver + four panel colors. BEE PLAZMA has a different housing design - it is easy to disassemble and easy to clean. This line is equipped with “cold” plasma air purification, which oxidizes harmful microorganisms and destroys their membranes and DNA. We can say that this is a powerful sterilizer.
In most models, GREE wall-mounted air conditioners have additional lotions in the form of:
- daily timer;
- comfortable sleep mode;
- auto start;
- hot start;
- setting the temperature at the location of the remote control.
All air conditioners operate on safe refrigerant, which prevents the weakening of the ozone layer of the earth.
Duct air conditioners
Channel-type climate control systems allow you to completely hide appliances and communications in a suspended ceiling. Outside, only grilles that distribute air flows are visible. Another plus - you can make a branched duct system that provides dozens of rooms with cool or warm. Ducts can also supply air from the street inside the building.
Specifications for GREE ducted air conditioners include:
- increased cooling capacity up to 65 kW;
- efficient air heating thanks to the built-in electric heater;
- compact dimensions of indoor units.
Also, a series of GREE air conditioners of this type in additional functions and options has:
- three-dimensional air distribution;
- daily timer;
- automatic self-diagnosis and restart after power failures.
The CHANNEL TYPE outdoor unit series has a DTC indication.
Cassette Air Conditioners
The cassette is placed where there are high ceilings and the area reaches 120 m². GREE produces internal modules of this type with a thickness of only 23 cm. Thanks to this, they can be mounted in a very compressed space between the ceiling and the hinged structure.
All GREE CASSETTE TYPE cassette air conditioners have ultra-quiet operation, which provides advanced fan blades. Blowing occurs on four sides, as much as possible eliminating the formation of different temperature zones in the room. Cooling and warming up very quickly. Air conditioners can operate in automatic and night modes. There is a system of self-diagnosis and auto-restart.
Column air conditioners
The indoor unit of the column is always installed on the floor. Outwardly, it looks like a narrow cabinet. GREE has a FLOOR STANDING TYPE series capable of handling indoor air up to 120 m². The technical characteristics of column-type GREE air conditioners include:
- high power;
- low power consumption;
- compact sizes.
Climate control devices of this type can operate in accelerated cooling / heating and air drying modes, which allows you to quickly create a comfortable microclimate in a room with a normal level of humidity. Plus, a hot start (cold air does not come in at the beginning of work), self-diagnosis, automatic resumption of work after a power outage or power surges, a daily timer.
Floor and ceiling air conditioners
GREE air conditioners of floor-and-ceiling type are semi-industrial models and are mounted either on the floor or under the ceiling, where it is impossible to make a suspended structure. Power indicators of internal modules range from 5 to 14 kW. They are able to create a comfortable climate in rooms up to 140 m². The FLOOR CEILING series has a system of "smart" distribution of air flows in several directions, auto start, self-diagnosis, a hot start and a comfortable sleep mode. The main advantage is surge protection.
Mobile and window air conditioners
GREE mobile air conditioners can only work in cooling mode, but at the same time they do not create noise and spend a minimum of energy. Their main advantage is their portability. If such a construction was needed in the country, then it can be easily taken with you from the apartment. The power of GREE WINDOW TYPE reaches 3 kW. The air flow is evenly distributed. There is a function to control air humidity, a comfortable sleep mode and a daily timer. Such a device does not present any difficulties in installation.
GREE window air conditioners are used in rooms up to 60 m². They have a capacity of up to 6.6 kW. The distribution of air flows is intensive, four-way, with a uniform flow. There is an auto restart function. When installing window models, it may be difficult if there are plastic windows. Manual models are also available using the remote control.
The main plus is the constant supply of fresh air.
Multi-split systems and multi-zone GREE systems
GREE multi-split systems are presented on the market in two series FREE MATCH and FREE MATCH II. They consist of an outdoor unit with an inverter type of compressor control, which can be connected from 2 to 4 in the first series, and up to 5 indoor heterogeneous blocks in the second series. Both series differ in total cooling capacity: in the first, values vary from 5 to 8 kW, in the second - from 5 to 11.6 kW.
GREE GMV multizone windows have the ability to connect up to 16 indoor modules to one outdoor, which are mounted in the basement, on the roof or on the technical floor. 4 outdoor units can be combined into a single system.
In total, the system is capable of incorporating up to 110 internal components. During operation, the total performance can reach 200 kW.
GREE releases 5 series of GMV multi-zone systems:
- GMV-IV two-pipe modular invertors - the most silent operation in comparison with other series;
- two-tube modular GMV D4 - digital refrigerant flow control;
- GMV HR-II three-pipe modular with heat recovery - thanks to the recuperator, energy consumption is significantly saved, different rooms are simultaneously heated and cooled;
- Mini GMV two-pipe inverter with low productivity - suitable for cottages and large apartments with a maximum area of up to 200 m², included in the Smart Home system;
- Home GMV two-pipe inverter with water heating - condition the air and heat water for domestic needs due to the additional inclusion of a freon / water heat exchanger and a water tank in the system.
Such multi-zone systems are mainly installed in administrative buildings, cottages, offices and shopping centers.
Instructions for air conditioners and remote controls GREE
The instructions for air conditioners GREE contain detailed information about the device of the external and internal units of the system, their settings and installation. But the main part is occupied by the description of the instructions for the GREE air conditioner remote control, in particular, the meaning of the buttons is decrypted and the functions and modes that can be controlled using the remote control while servicing the gree air conditioners are described.

- ON / OFF - turning on / off the device.
With GREE air conditioners, all the instructions for the controls explain how to turn on the device for heating or drainage, how to start the turbo mode, how to install an additional function - an electrostatic filter, and so on.
To have an idea of the possible malfunctions of the GREE air conditioner, you must carefully read the instructions, which indicate problems that do not require concern, and breakdowns that require a wizard.
An important point that describes the instructions of the air conditioner GREE - precautions:
- Do not touch the plug with wet hands;
- It is forbidden to independently install and modify the device;
- Care should be taken with the direction of direct air flows.
This is an incomplete list, so be sure to carefully read the entire brochure to the control panel, this will allow you to troubleshoot without disassembling the air conditioner itself.
Air conditioner reviews
Buyers leave very positive reviews for GREE air conditioners, noting that they:
- take up little space;
- work quietly;
- quickly cool and heat air to the set marks;
- withstand even round-the-clock work;
