The Swedish engineering company ELECTROLUX has been manufacturing gas and electrical appliances for the home for over a hundred years. One of its areas of activity is the production of climate control devices - air conditioners, which are very popular among consumers due to their reasonable price in the presence of all the necessary functions and many modern additional options.
The product line includes both domestic climatic equipment and equipment for public institutions and even industrial facilities.
Types and series of air conditioners ELECTROLUX
There are several types of appliances for household equipment: traditional split systems, cost-effective inverter splits, multi-split systems and mobile air conditioners. Each of them is presented in several serial lines.
Of course, household air conditioners are more in demand, therefore it is on them that the emphasis is made in this article.
Traditional split systems
This refers to wall-mounted air conditioners. ELECTROLUX has about nine lines of such devices. All of them were developed according to advanced technologies and underwent significant structural and optional changes. As an example, we can take the ELECTROLUX air conditioners of the EACS FUSION series, in which the elements of the system responsible for the distribution of air flows were reconstructed. Now, thanks to the wide-angle vertical blinds and the large opening angle of the flexible leaves, the air in the horizontal direction comes in a very wide stream.
The filtration system is equipped with 6 separate filters, including anti-mite, biological antibacterial, catechin (excellent anti-allergenic deodorizer) and silver ions. All of them kill bacteria and viruses, making the air useful and clean, but they periodically need maintenance (cleaning).
In addition to the main modes, the ELECTROLUX EACS FUSION series air conditioner is equipped with a chip that diagnoses faults, anti-icing, quick start mode and an economical night mode, locking buttons on the remote control, which is important for families with small children. The positive characteristics include the condensate evaporation system, which does not allow moisture to collect inside the device and indoors.
Due to the special coating of the heat exchanger using the Blue Fin technology, the service life is extended by several years, as it prevents the development of corrosion processes.
An important factor is the energy efficiency of class A. This feature will be appreciated by those who have restrictions on energy consumption or who are forced to live in a cost-saving mode.
Of course, the price of air conditioners for the ELECTROLUX EACS FUSION series is quite affordable for the middle class population. Model EACS - 24 HF / N3 is able to process air in a room with an area of up to 62 m², while the buyer will spend only about 45-50 000 rubles.
Special attention should be given to the air conditioners of the ELECTROLUX AIR GATE series, which have a stylish external design along with a huge number of additional features. From the name it becomes clear that this line has a special approach to air filtration.
To the already listed features and performance of the previous series are added:
- HEPA and carbon filters - the first has a porous structure and removes all suspended particles up to 99%, the second delays the particles that make up the odor and absorbs harmful chemical gases;
- a cold plasma generator that destroys any harmful organics and ionizes air;
- start at low mains voltage;
- smooth start of the engine in the first minutes;
- protection against voltage drops in the form of a device shutdown at unacceptable marks;
- multi-layer varnish coating of the body against mechanical damage.
Three designer colors are another plus towards the ELECTROLUX AIR GATE conditioners among traditional split systems.
When choosing a wall-mounted air conditioner, attention is drawn to the power values. Judging by customer reviews, air conditioners ELECTROLUX AIR GATE and other series are very powerful and cool large areas in comparison with those stated in the technical passport. If we are talking about a nursery, it is better to take a less efficient device. An area of 22 m², then seven, and not nine, is quite suitable.
Mobile split systems floor type
ELECTROLUX company produces a large range of mobile air conditioners that meet all the needs of everyday life of a modern person. They are in no way inferior to splits, but unlike the latter, such devices can be moved from place to place if necessary and used in any conditions and rooms.
Floor air conditioner is a monoblock on wheels, placed near a window, through which heat is removed using a corrugated hose. To prevent street air from entering the room, special plugs are used that are included in the kit.
The mobile ELECTROLUX air conditioner (floor) has general operating characteristics for all models and series + an additional set of functionality for each line separately. The general technical parameters include:
- good performance with low power consumption;
- class of increased energy efficiency - A;
- low noise effect;
- safe type of freon R410A;
- compact dimensions;
- lack of need for special installation.
It is worth noting that in most splits, inverter splits, multi systems and mobile devices, it is R410A freon that is used. It has excellent cooling capacity, and this reduces power consumption. It does not destroy the ozone layer, therefore, does not pose a threat to the environment. It does not tend to ignite, which means it is safe for humans.
All floor-mounted ELECTROLUX air conditioners are capable of operating in cooling, dehumidification and ventilation of air masses. They distribute the air flow in the room evenly thanks to a three-speed fan and convenient shutters, so drafts are eliminated. Condensation is automatically removed via air ducts. Also, ELECTROLUX mobile air conditioners are equipped with an auxiliary drainage pump in case of increased humidity inside the device. All series have a round-the-clock timer for programming the on / off time of the device.
The manufacturer produces several serial lines of floor-mounted air conditioning systems:
- ECO;
- DIO
- ECO WAVE;
- AIR GATE.
The ELECTROLUX EACM series mobile air conditioners are equipped with a washable air filter, and these are all the listed ranges in the list above. The EACM AIR GATE series floor-standing air conditioner deserves special attention due to its filtration system, which includes several types of filters, namely: antibacterial / antiviral HAF, coal + air ionizer, which produces negatively charged particles (anions) and saturates them in air indoors. This creates a feeling of being in the forest, stimulates blood circulation, improves the respiratory system and simply invigorates a person.
Another notable advantage of the ELECTROLUX mobile air conditioners in the EACM AIR GATE series is the reduced noise level. It is significantly smaller than the ECO WAVE or DIO series.
By the way, the EACM DIO series of floor-mounted ELECTROLUX air conditioners is distinguished by the highest productivity per hour among all other ranges. And the ECO-series has high efficiency due to high efficiency.
The control panels of all ELECTROLUX EACM series floor air conditioners are similar in their design and operation principle - the operating parameters are set simply and are always visible on the display.
Remote controls for air conditioners of electrolux mobile type EACM can be conveniently placed in a special "slot" on the device’s case, from which they are easily removed. Management is intuitive. Active range reaches 6 meters. There are two ways to program work: through the remote control and on the panel itself.
A purely external performance evokes only positive emotions, since the models are all compact, the back of the instruments is as good as the front, the plastic is neat and there are no gaps or burrs at the joints.
Any cassette ELECTROLUX EACM series air conditioners are a worthy purchase for summer cottages or for rental housing. The main plus is that professional installation is not required, but this is a significant saving of the family’s financial resources, and you can always take it with you when you move.
The filter must be cleaned at least once a month. If the air conditioner is located near the stove, this procedure is performed more often, since in addition to dust, it is strongly clogged by combustion products. It is equally important to completely block the flow of air from the street with the device running.
Professional air conditioning
ELECTROLUX has several series of semi-industrial air conditioners for creating a positive microclimate in offices, shops, hotels and other public and warehouse buildings with an area of up to 250 m². These include systems:
- channel;
- cassette
- columned;
- floor and ceiling.
In a few words, they can be described as devices with increased productivity, silent operation, a “smart” air supply system without creating temperature zones with different indicators. They have many protective algorithms in case of emergency and a huge number of additional options that correct this or that mode.
With the help of semi-industrial air conditioners ELECTROLUX, climate control systems are organized in rooms of any configuration.
A special niche is occupied by the professional air conditioning systems ELECTROLUX of the SUPER MATCH series with a free layout of devices. The main plus is the presence of a DC inverter and the ability to connect up to 5 indoor units of completely different types and different power indicators to a single external unit - channel, cassette, floor-ceiling, and so on.
These are about 100 different combinations of multi-split systems!
The main advantages of ELECTROLUX SUPER MATCH include:
- variability of working temperatures;
- high performance;
- system security algorithms;
- automatic modes of self-diagnosis and blocking;
- lack of noise;
- fast achievement of the set temperature marks;
- independence of internal blocks from each other;
- economic profitability thanks to invertor technologies.
Central air conditioning
The central air conditioning ELECTROLUX is represented by fan coil units and multi-zone SVM systems.
Fancoils are part of the building’s central cooling system. The main difference from the air conditioner is the working substance. This is either water or glycol mixtures, which, when the device is in operation, never change their state of aggregation. They have more complex automation and are used where the equipment has a large heat output. Combined with chillers that replace the outdoor unit of a conventional air conditioner.
Externally, fancoils resemble the internal blocks of split systems and have the same type range. ELECTROLUX has the HOME series, which offers air conditioning equipment not only for administrative, but also for residential premises.
ELECTROLUX multi-zone SVM systems have several ranges of both outdoor and indoor units. The former can connect up to 32 indoor devices and control up to 64 independent temperature zones. At the same time, minimal energy consumption is observed. The control over the main elements of the refrigeration circuit is carried out by means of the latest high-class control schemes, including inverter and digital regulation. The types of indoor units are diverse: cassette, duct, wall, and so on.
Such systems are especially effective in regions with large seasonal temperature fluctuations.
Instructions for remote control air conditioners ELECTROLUX
The control of any ELECTROLUX air conditioner is carried out using the remote control. You can get acquainted with all the features of the installation of various modes by studying in detail the instructions for the air conditioner remote control. How to turn on the device for heating or drainage, how to set the sleep timer, how to start SLEEP mode - all this is in this brochure.
The presence of the operating instructions for the remote control of the ELECTROLUX air conditioner must be checked when purchasing the device. Only with its help you can understand all the functional features of the remote control key.
Most remote controls for ELECTROLUX air conditioners have the main operation buttons:
- ON / OFF - turn on / off the power of the device;
- MODE - selection of the required operating mode;
- Fan - change in fan speed of the indoor unit;
- SLEEP - enable / disable the economical night mode;
- FEEL - switching on / off the direction of air flow;

- QUIET - quiet operation mode.
ELECTROLUX air conditioners provide the function of locking / unlocking the buttons of the remote control by pressing the button with the triangle turned up / down. Any remote control for the ELECTROLUX air conditioner is battery powered.
Do not use different types of batteries. It is also forbidden to use a new power supply device, coupled with an already exhausted resource. If there is a loss of the remote control, then control is carried out by the emergency switch.
Customer reviews on air conditioners ELECTROLUX
Having read reviews on ELECTROLUX air conditioners, we can conclude that this climate technology satisfies the needs of both a simple average consumer and a more demanding customer.
In standard cooling and heating modes, ELECTROLUX air conditioners work with dignity. The selected temperature is reached quickly, with its differences, no cracking of plastic is observed, the air is distributed fairly evenly. The noise of the indoor unit is minimal and does not interfere with sleep at night.
Many users leave positive feedback on mobile-type ELECTROLUX air conditioners. Color indication of operating modes on the display, convenient short-length output of corrugated hose, condensate drain, automatic operating modes, convenient remote control, the presence of 4 wheels - all these are undoubted advantages.
In the price / quality ratio, ELECTROLUX air conditioners are the golden mean. There are cheap models, there are “sophisticated” ones that are equipped with many additional options. But in any case, these climate control systems perform the functions assigned to them.
