Air conditioning heating and cooling are familiar and standard features. But if the climate technology is used only in the summer, you can save and buy air conditioning only for cooling. As a rule, you can lower the temperature in the room to +18 degrees. But some more expensive models can achieve +16.
Types of air conditioners for cooling
Air conditioners working for cooling are:
- vent type;
- split systems;
- mobile.
The lack of a heating function significantly reduces their cost. Although, the models of well-known manufacturers (Toshiba, Mitsubishi, Daikin) can cost much more expensive inexpensive models of Asian manufacturers, working and for heating.
How to calculate cooling power
Before you buy an air conditioner only for cooling, you need to calculate its power.
Approximately we can proceed from the ratio:
- 1 kilowatt of power falls on 10 square meters of a room with a ceiling height of up to 3 meters.
To calculate more accurately, you have to consider:
- direction and size of windows;
- number of people;
- number of household appliances.
If the windows are facing south, add 20% to the original figure.
If the room with panoramic glazing, add as much.
The abundance of equipment and people in the room increase the amount by another 20% for each item.
Professionals calculate the influx of heat into the room, allowing you to accurately determine the amount of required cold air.
Toshiba air conditioners for cooling
Toshiba presents a series of inverter split systems GACV. These are air conditioners working for air cooling. The series includes several models that differ in power and can cater for up to 80 square meters.
Outdoor units can be selected with a capacity of 5 - 8 kilowatts. These are very quiet air conditioners, consuming less electricity than their counterparts.
Up to 4 indoor wall, channel or cassette types can be connected to one outdoor unit. But heating and cooling this type of air conditioning will not provide. The length of the cold trails can be 70 meters.
Daikin air conditioners for cooling
In the Daikin range, air-conditioning-only models are represented by the FTX20J – RX20J, FTX35J-RX35J, FTX25J-RX25J line. All three devices are controlled by inverter systems that provide excellent performance even with power surges. Changes in the flow and intensity of blowing, quiet operation of the fans and low price make these air conditioners only for air cooling, very popular and in demand among consumers.
- Power from 2 to 3.5 kilowatts;
- The noise level of indoor units is 22 decibels, outdoor units up to 48 decibels;
- Equipped with special winter sets, air conditioners can work up to -15 degrees outdoors.
