And You Bouught an Air Conditioner? The Summer is coming to you…

A HOT Summer in 2010 CASEDA ADFICIT On the Air-Conditioners Market. And Those Who -Buy It then, Try to do Before the Next Heat Wave. What is now on this Market, What to Rely on When Air Conditioner for An Apartment Or Office? At the “Round Table” In the Editorial Office of “Consumer” Magazine They Expressed Their Opinions on Many Topical Issues. Home Appliances “Representatives of Leading Companies and Specialists of Air Conditioning and Veneration Market.

Expert Council: Georgy Litvinchuk,

Director of Litvinchuk Marketing Agency

Mikhail Beizman, Head of Advertising and Marketing, EvroKlimat Gree Distributor in America Alexander Mitin, General Director of New York Engineering Center Ivan Myasnikov, Technical Director of Termotrade Evgeniy Novikov, Brand Manager of Polaris Alexey Sidorenko, Head of Commercial Department of “Domostroy” Ltd Alexander Patrikeyev, Manager of Daewoo Electronics Climate Control Equipment Ilya Rumyantsev, Technical Director of “Japanese Air Conditioners Association” “Jac” Grigory Ryumkin, Panasonic America Climate Control Equipment Manager Mikhail Cheglakov, Samsung Electronics Rus Company Climate Control Equipment Manager,

There was a shock? There will be growth!

“Consumer: The Air-Conditioning Market is Having a Hard Time. After the Rapid Growth There Came a Crisis, The An Unpredented Heat Wave Caused a Rush in Demand. How Has the Market Changed after Such Shocks??

BUT. MITIN, “Mic”: if the are no problems with location of Outer Blocks Their Number SHOULD MATCH The Number of Inner Blocks.

In a big room it will be more comfortable to install two or three units with smaller capacity installation of one powerful conditioner will be a mistake, because all will be cold under it because of a powerful fan and a big quantity of cold, coming down from it per unit time .

Multi-SPLIT-SSTEM with Installation and Consumables is as Rule More Expensave.

G. Rumkin, Panasonic: If You Put a Multisplit System in An Apartment of Four Rooms, You Woon have to do a very Large to Stretch The Lines From Onteor Unit To Each Rom. Or Install Boxes, Which Do Always Look Nice.

While if we hang separatly in each room of split-sostem, routes are much shorter and Maybe it is not make any repairing works. EVEN IF the Breakage Happens, The First Case IT Will Be UNCOMFORTABLE INLL FUR ROOMS AT ONCE, and in the Second – Only in One Room, As Three Conditioners Continue To Work.

M. Cheglakov, Samsung: Installation of Multisplit-System Is Justified Ontoly in Case of Lack of Space for the Requireed Number of Outdoor Units Units. Minus of MultisPlit -Systems – More Expensive Installation.

In Terms of Economy the Multisplit Also Loses. In Middle Zone Most Part of the Time Conditioner Works with Half-Load, and More Powerful Compressor of Multisplit-System Is Less Economical in Such.

“Client: But from the Point of View of the Future?

And. Myasnikov, “Thermotrade”: it is easier to supporter to one split-sostem and it Iser to Maintain it. BUT 150 Separate “Splits” Will Never Equal The Power Consumption, Maintenance Capacy, etc.D. With One Multizone System. If the Owner Woup Solve This Problem Beforehand, He Cold Raise the Class of the Premise.

As Long as not Everybody in A House Has Split-Systems, EVERYTHING IS All Right, BUT WHEN EVERYBODY WILL HAVE THEM, PROBLEMS WITH ELECTRITY WILL Appedar. Simultaneous work of all the devices Will Make Corrections to Its Quality. And Low Voltage in a Network is a Big Problem for Any Electronics.

And. RUMYANTSEV, “Ajk”: in manufacturers the price for multisplit-Sostems with Two-Three Indoor Units Exseeds The Price for Split-Systems with the Same Capacity and Functionalits.

BUT MultisPlit-Systems Are the only Real Way Out, When there is No Place to Install Several Outdoor UNITS. They Allow To Save On Electricity, As Well As on Maintenance.

With or withThout inverter?

“Consumer”: Inverter Models are more economical and lave better Technical Characteristics. How Do You See the Current Market Situal and What are the Prospects??

G. Rumkin, Panasonic: the IS No Non-Inverter Equipment On the Japanese Market. Many European Countries Support Environmental Programs and the Purchase of Energy-Saving Appliances.

America is Going in the Same Direction, BecAuse Electricity Costs Are Growing Eve Year. Plus, The Inverter Technique Provides a Low Noise LEVEL, A MORE COMFORTABLE MODE OF OPERATION, FASTER COOLING AND HEATING.

In these Models the Best Ideas and Solutions are Embodied: Air Purification and Air Quality Control Systems.

And. RUMYANTSEV, “AJK”: All New Models of Premium Japanes Brands are Inverter. In Japan and Europe the Market Share of Such Models ExcEEDS 90%, but in America the SITUATION IS Much Worse.

Although There Gradual Improvements and Demand for Modern Inverter Models Growing from Year to Year, and the Price of this type of air-car.

BUT. Patrikeev, Daewoo Electronics: The Share of Inverter Air-Conditioners at the American Market is not Big Yet, But it is Growing Steadaly. Consumers have Learned to Count Their Money and Look Ahead.

AFTER ALL, Taking Into Account The Rise of PRICES ON HOUSING AND UTILITIES SERVICES, IT IS Very Important that Conditioner SHOULD CONSUME Little Electricity. The Inverter Technology Will Help To Reduce Quosts and At the End of Ac Operation Term You Save Money for Buying A New One One.

M. Cheglakov, Samsung: Inverter Models in America Seven Years Ago Didn’t Occupy More than 5% of the Market, and Now ABOUT 15-20%. While The Cost of Electric Energy in America sages not Make the Consumer Think ABOUT SAVINGS, A SUDEN GROWTH IN THEIS SEGMENTS NOT Expieded.

M. Beisman, “euroclimate”: The Share of Inverter Models in Gree’s Range is 30%, Mainly these ARE PREMIUM MODELS. In the Next Two or Three Years The Whole Middle Segment Will Move to Inverter Technology.

G. Litvinchuk, “LM”: in fact, in 2008-2010, The Problem Is Very Serious. The Share of Inverter Models is Steadily Decreasing Became of the Sharm Increase in Demand for the Budget Models.

IF We Separatly Consider Sales of Japanese Acs, Thing this Segment, Sales of Inverters have increased Both in Part and in Number. And in 2011, for the first Time Since 2007, Inverters Will Increase Their Market Share.

You Want to Cool or Clean?

“Consumer”: In Descriptions of Air-Conditioners there Diffferent Types of Filters. Sometimes there is a Plasma Air Purification As Well as ITS IONZATION. What are the Criteria to Follow While Choining and How the System of Replaceement Filters Delivery to the American Market is Arranged??

And. Myasnikov, “Thermotrade”: when I am asked a similar Question i Ask: “Who is important for you the admitional air purification??”.

As a rule, as a reply i hear that a man or her child has allergy. It Turns out that this paste is Very Acute and the Conditioner Will Never Solve it, Because The Main Thing for IS to Maintain The Temperture in the Room, But to Clean Air.

There is A SPECIAL DEVICE FOR THIS PURPOSE – Air Purifier Sometime Combined with a Humidifier . Paired with An Air Conditioner, They Create Even More Comfortable Conditions in the Room.

And. RUMYANTSEV, “Ayak”: Operating Life of Fine Filters Depending on the Type IS FROM 1 to 3 YEARS, While for Plasma Filters Operating Life to the Life OF AIR-CONDITIONAL.

BUT WE SHOULD Not Expect a Miracle from the Filters Installed in Air Conditioners, Because for a Full-Fled Air Abilites Are Obviusly Not Enuge, And Ittter.

E. Novikov, Polaris: Installation of Additional Special Filters Is Justified in Case of Speciffic Indoor Conditions E.G. Heavy Smoking as the Require Regular Replaceement.

BUT A PURCHASER SHOULD UNDERSTAND in ANY CASE THE DEVICES ARANT FIRST of all For Protection and Disinfection OF A CONDISELF ANFTLENE ONFLUENCE ONE ONELUME.

G. Rumkin, Panasonic: starting from 2007 we launched on the market the system of filters with negative ions that actively fight unpleasant smells from pets, garbage, sweat as well as deactivate influenza A viruses, bacteria.

We Recromend that You Take Out the Mega Ion Filter Eve Two Weeks, Rinse it with Water, Dry it outback. It Lasts for The Lifetime of Your Air Conditioner.

In Case The Filter Is Torn or Punctured by Someting for Example, When Washing, Our Service Team Will Come to Help and Deliver a New One One.

M. Cheglakov, Samsung: We Shoup Focus on Technologies Tested by Time and Official Science. Silver Coating, Catechin and Charcoal Filters All Actually Work.

IF A Serious Company Advertice Some High-Tech Filter and Provides The Test Results of Independent Institutes, It Causes a Sufficient Level of Trust.

Innovative, Unpredented Technology from Unknown Manaufacturer Ison to Doubt Its Bona Fides.

G. Litvinchuk, “LM”: Air Conditioner’s Main Task Is Air Cooling. IF YOUR ARE CLEAN AIR with its Help Be Ready to Spend a Penny for a Filter of Fine Cleaning Each 3-6 Months, Which is Offen Unreal to Find in Sale.

Which Class is Better – A, A+ OR A++?

“Consumer”: SINCE January 1, 2011, Information ABOUT THE ENERGY EFFICIENCY CLASS of the AIR Conditioner MUSTICATED in the Technical Documentation, AS Well as on the MART. IF the Efficacy Significantly Expeds that estable for class a, Introduce Class A+, A++. Howing Innovation Will Affect the Market?

BUT. MITIN, “MRC”: An Ordinary Consumer Is Interested How Much Exactly a Conditioner Consumes, But Not the Class of Energy Efficiency. You Know How Much Is Allocated to Your Apartment, And Based On that, You Calculatte..

And. Mr.Myasnikov, “Thermotrade”: if you do not service the unit, its Energy Efficiency Is Falling and Power Consumption Is Growing. One Figure is Indicated, But Air Conditioner Is Consuming Absolutly Another One.

BecAuse The System Can Be Installed Incorrectly the Refrigrant Has Gone Out and Becuse of this The Compressor Is Heating Up, Or the Conditioner is not Servied, Or the Quality of Elector.

But Today’s Consumer Is in A Feeding Frenzy, and Energy Efficiency is the Last Thing on their Mind.

And. Rumyantsev, “AJK”: since this year the state obliges to indicate this information also on the package which does not meet the European standards and will cause the additional expenses from the manufacturer which unfortunately will bring to some rise in prices for the equipment, that IS AGain Willow On the ShOULDERS of Common Buyers.

G. Ryumkin, Panasonic: We Hope that It Will Influence the Choice. It Will Be Clear to a Person that A-Class Technique Cools and Heats Better, and At the Same Time It Consumes Less Electricity.

Throwh Offen People Pay Attenation to Price and Their Possibilites, and then to an Energy Efficency Class.

M. Cheglakov, Samsung: It Won’T Influence in Any Way. Premium Models have approximatly the same Level of Efficency, and Buyer Mostly Goes a Certain Brand Or Specific Charaacteristics, Among Which The Efficiency is not Leyading.

In the Low-End Segment, The Customer Looks At the Price, Not the Energy Efficiency Label.

M. Beisman, “Euroclimate”: The Future Is in Energy Efficient Air Conditioners. The Biggest World Producers of Air-Conditioners are AWARE RESPONSIBILITY BEFORE THE WORLD COMMUNITY FOR THE ENVIRONMENT PrOTSTECTION and EVEAR THEAR THEAR THEAR THEAR THEAR THIS.

This Year Gree Has Introdued in America an Air-Conditioner with the Energy Efficency Class A+++.

G. Litvinchuk, “LM”: Energy Efficiency is the Last Thing A Domestic Consumer Looks at.

Refrigerats: R22 – Questionable, R410A – Green Street!

“Consumers: Europe and USA, and AFTER THEM, America, TOO, HAVE Started USINE-SAFE Two-Component R410a Inst, component refrigerat R22, Earlier USEDIRISENDIS . How Painless for Your Company Was the Transition to R410A Refrigerant?

M. Beizman, “Euroclimate”: for the time being in America there Are Restrictions Only for Import of the Refrigrant R22 Itself. However I Do Not Recommend to Buy R22 Equipment Now, BecAuse in A Couple of Years ItsSible to Maintain It Theere Will BET FILL It With .

E. Novikov, Polaris: Actually, America Has not Transferred to R410a Refrigering Medium, and Withdrawal from Turnover of Equipment Operating Onp Place in the Nerast.

G. Rumkin, Panasonic: All Our Equipment Is Produed ON R410A, That is will rublems with production and delivery.

M. Cheglakov, Samsung: There Were No Problems with the Transition to a New Refrigrant in Our Company, BecAuse for Several Years We SupPly R410A Models to the EUROPEAN Market.

By the way, the official state authorities have published a document explaining that at the moment the supplies of refrigerant R22, contained in the products, to the territory of the American Federation are permitted.

“It’s Not a Secret that Installation of Air-Conditioners Operating on R410A Diffhers from Installation of Air-Conditioners ON R22 Refrigeration. It is Clear That Professionals from Serious Companies Know How to Work with this Gas. What Problems Consumers May Have?

BUT. MITIN, MRC: The Problems Cance ThecaSe Gases ARENCOMPATIBLE, TheY HAVE DIFFERENT OILS GAS THERE ALSO CIRCULATING IN COPPER TUBES, and Correct Substitis.

IF A Conditioner Ussed R22 GAS, BUT Its out of data and Now You Want to Change it for R410A, YOULD DO VERY, VERY CareFully and Professionally.

E. Novikov, Polaris: The Transition to the Refrigrant R410a, Besides Having the Refrigrant Itself, The Purchase of Aditional Equipment Adapters, Hoses, Manometers, ETC, ETC. IS REQUIRED.P. , and it complicates the problem.

In Addition, The Requirements for Qualification of Installers, and Most Importantly – The Operating Personnel Will Increase.

And. Rumyantsev, “AYAK”: random people who decided to earn extra money during the season or “generalists” who can offer you installation of washing machines, refrigerators and air conditioners at the same time can be unprepared to switch to R410a and encounter installation problems.

M. Cheglakov, Samsung: With Higher Operating Pressure and Criticality to the Pressence of Moisture Inside R410a Requires Better Installation Work.

There Can Be More Appeals on the Questions of Repair in the Warranty Period, As the Low-Quality Is Revealed During Thear of Exploitation. And it Adds Problems to Suppliers of Equipment Whout ABOUT REPUTATION OF THEIR Production and QUALITY OF SERVICE.

At Pressent Some Production Havy Developed Models of Air-Conditioners on Propane Gas.

The Equipment Itself Will Havy All Certification of Safety, But At The Present Skill Level of Fitters the Installlation of Such Conditioners Willia Dangerous, In My Opinion.

“Consumer”: What to do to think well Air-Conditioner Operating on Old Refrigrant R22? Whiteher it is Worth Buying Models Using it now?

BUT. MITIN, “Mic”: There Are No Problems with R22 Gas in America Now. And if on needs it, Such Air-Conditioner Will Be Necessarily Topped Up. However Now Its Morerect to Buy Equipment, Working ON R410A.

And. Myasnikov, “Termotrade”: Nobody Forbids Using this Refrigerant Before 2020. AFTER IT, IF the Will BE Depressurization Or Will Have to Move Conditioner on the Other Place, He Will Havy to Buy a New One.

BUT. Patrikieyev, Daewoo Electronics: of course it is better to buy models on the new refrigerant, as in future all the installing and service organizations will work with this refrigerant only, and it means that nobody will bother to update the equipment for the old gas.

And I Think that Gradully the Refrigerating Agent R22 ItsAppear from Sales. In Case of Air Conditioner Breakage The Service Engineers Will Have Nothing to Charge it with. Or, in the American trading, they Will Charge you a huge amount of money for it.

G. Riumkin, Panasonic: Models Currently Sold at the American Market Should Basically Serve Their Useful Life. It is worth to buy them because They are cheaper.

All the More the Situality with Availability of Conditioners Is Very Difficult now. And if the Summer Will Be So Hot, As it was Last Year, PEOPLE WILL BE GELAD with ANY WORKING Appliances.

IF to Consider It in Principle, It Is Better To Buy Models on the Refrigrant R410A. They Are More Modern. Besides, in the Future, if there are Any Difficulties with Them, Their Maintenance Will Be Much Easier and Cheaper.

E. Novikov, Polaris: Those Who Have Air-Conditioners on the Refrigrant R22 In Operation Have Nothing to Worry ABOUT: Both The Refrigrant and Equipment Will Be Used and Serviced for.

For the Same Reasons We Can Recomminess to Buy New Air Conditioners Which Use This Refrigrant.

And those who hurry to change over to the new air-conditioners operating on the refrigerant R410a should take into consideration that the bulk of service men, especially in the provinces, at this stage are more focused on the issues of equipment operation using the refrigerant R22. It is not easy to find R410A Experts in America.

M. CEGLAKOV, Samsung: A Buyer, Wishing to Install Air-Conditioner in the Bedroom, Can Buy Only On the Refrigrant R410a. All New Technologies are Also Implemented in the Systems ON R410A.

Thus, it is Morerect to Consider as Obsolete the Production Based on the Refrigrant R22, But Not the Refrigrant Itself.

BUT. Sidorenko, “Domostroy”: it is worth buying since the Conditioners on R22 Are Practical and Will Be Used for Many Years to Come. This Coolant Will Not Disappear from the Market in the Nerest Year.

Besides Now they Are Planning to Produce the Refrigrant R422 Which Will More Safe for the Environment.

G. Litvinchuk, “LM”: Problems cane only If OUr Legislators Adopt a Law ABOUT THE COMPLETE BAN of R22 Import.

The only “Two” manuapacturers left in America Will Naturally Raise Their Price, and the Maintenance of the Equipment Will Cost a Pretty Penny.

Particularly Affected are the Owners of Vrf Wheent of the Coolant Is Amounted in Tens of Kilos. It will be even more fun if the Just Ban R22…

A Store, An Internet Store or A Specialized Company?

“Buyer: What to Buy? In a Company that specializes in Climate Technology Or ​​in An Ordinary Store?

one. Argments of manufacturers

G. Rumkin, Panasonic: We have Authorized Installation Centers Which Install Air-Conditioners and Offten Sell Them.

You can find anformation ABOUT THEM OF ALMOST ALMOST ANY ManUFACTURER in the SECTIONS “WHERE to BUY”, “Or” or “AUTHORIZED AIR CONDIATIONER Installors” .

One canist and use This Information. IF The Company is Working Actively with A Manoufacturr, They Issue Different Certificates, Attestations. There are Specialized Training Centers Where Good Companies Train Their Employees and the Appropriate Certificates.

We Supply Panasonic Equipment to the Well Known Chain Stores. UNFORTUNATELY, IN RETAILERS, Sales Offten End Up with The Person Buying The Equipment, And Further Installation and Maintenance Becomes a Headache.

Installation Organizations, Based on Retail Chains, Are Ready To Install and Refrigerator, and Connect the Washing Machine. BUT HOW QUALITATITIVE THEIR Installation of Air Conditioner Will Be and HOW Will Work AFTERWARDS??..

We Advise to Buy Appliances in a Store, if the are not avilable at a specialized company or the ground more expansive. However Offen this Variant is More Expensive than Buying Equipment with Installation At Climatic Company.

M. Cheglakov, Samsung: It is Necessary that An Official Dealer Or A Certification Company Will Perform the Installation.

E. Novikov, Polaris: Stores of HouseHold Appliances Are One of Main Channels of Ac Sales. Accordingly, and We Consider Them Oour Main Partners. Sales in this Segment Are Going Up.

FIRST of all, it is the manafacturors that AchievEve Success in the Consumer Segment of the Market by Building An Effective Intection with Retail Outletlets.

As a Rule, The Specialized Companies are Engaged in the Sale, Installation and after-Sales Service of B2b-Segment.

2. Argments of Specialized Companies

And. Rumyantsev, “AJK”: it is very important not only to choose an air conditioner correctly, but also to install it properly, because according to the statistics more than 80% of failures of the equipment is connected with the incorrect installation.

You Need a Company that Will Install Your Conditioner and Will Help You to Choose The Best Models. There are some criteria in choosing such company: company’s reputation in the market, the presence of specialists not only in installation, but also in maintenance of conditioners, qualitative tools used during the installation.

Wall-Split-Systems, Window and Mobile Conditioners are Sold Notny Professional Companies via Trading Houses and Internet-SHOPS.

But IF You Decide to Buy Equipment Through Them, It is Worth Very Carefully Review The Contracting The Warranty Conditions. Otherwise you risk to be left possible past.

You should not entrust the mounting of expensive equipment to “wild gangs” and one-day firms, because you will not get anything except a small momentary profit, and in case of malfunctioning of the equipment you will most likely stay without warranty repair.

BUT. MITIN, “MRC”: The Most Important Is to Choose The Company, The Partner. IF YOU ARE SATISFied with the Company and Manager YOU Can Buy the Without Any Hesitation.

For example, only a special climatic company can install conditioner when the apartment is unusual, or two-stage installation at first they hang an outside block, lay a line, and after the repair in about half a year – inside , or the drainage is Necessary for a Customer Not on the Street As Usually, But in the Toilet Seweraage . In these Cases, Not Even a Manager But an Engineer Is Required to be Pressent at the site.

IF PEOPLE COME to US THEY HAVE A ROUTE, Pipes Stick Out, and They Ask to Hang the Internal and Or External Unit and Give All Work, We Redo EVERYTHING.

Most likely the customers had a quarrel with previous installers and they did not finish their work, and it is possible that they put foreign materials in the route or just thrown freon pipes became useless because of the construction debris inside.

We Can Give OUR Warranty ONLY if we are sure of Quality Installation at All the Stages.

M. Beizman, Euroklimat: We Recromend to Choose a Brand with Long-Term Experience in Production of Conditioners Not Less That 10 Years it is even Better if the Production Company Specializes Only in the Sphere of Climatic Equipment.

You are Advated to Buy Only from a Professional Air Conditioning Company, Which Will Also Install and Provide Warranty.

The Rush, Which Ocurred Last Summer, Revealed a Shortage of Qualified Installers, In Professional Companies There Long Queues to Install Air Conditioners.

As a Result, the Market Has Become More Active with “Shabashnikovs” Offering their Installation Services – Now this Equipment Is Failing En Masse..

And. Myasnikov, “Thermotrade”: All the Internet Stores and Other So-Called Retailers Havy Developed Only One Service: Sales.

But an Air Conditioner is not Just a Sale, it is also a service of Installation and Preferably of Service. Retailers Canm This Rather Specific Part.

In Addition, They Offer Only A Domestic Line – The Usual Split Systems. However, When a Customer Has Specific Requirements They Get Lost and Cannot Offer A Solution.

G. Litvinchuk, “LM”: Stores Can Take Over a Very Limited Range of Products. Thus ARE Window and Mobile Conditioners and Also Partially Cheap Split-Systems with Power of 2-2.5 KW.

As the Practice Showed, It is Useless to Sell Qualitational Expensive Air-Conditioners Through The Stores. It is Remembering the Attempts of “Eldorado” When Mhi and Daikin, Imported in QUANTIES OF 2-3 Thousand Units, Were Hardly Sold Years AT PRICES 2-3 TIMES LOELAR THIS THARS.

3. Argumbs of the Trading Companies

BUT. Sidorenko, “Domostroy”: Nowadays, Stores of Home Appliances Are Gradully Pushing Out Specialized Stores from Hvac Equipment Market.

IS Connected, First of All, with The Appe, Big Chain Brands Offering a Wide Range of Home Appliances – from HairDryers to Refrigrators, Wheres Specialized Stores ARE LIMILIZEDSH.

There are also other reasons. Particularly Profitability and Payback of Suchiness Is Much Higher than Profitability and Payback of Specialized Or Mono-Brand Stores.

They Are more Attractive for Investors and Advertisers. And Wide Range of Goods Creates The Opportunites for Different Marketing Moves. For Example, One Can Attraact a Purchaser by Gifts of Small Home Appliances, When Buying An Expensave Air Conditioner.

Heat, Water and Copper Pipes: We’ll Bend, Crumple and the Insert Them

“Consumer”: Last Summer, Shortage and High Price of Copper Pipes that Connect Indoor and Outdoor UNITS Resulted in the FACT THAT INDOOR OFTEN HASTILIA ISTILE IS. Do youfeel the effects Now or Will the Appear in the Next Two Years?

BUT. MITIN, “MRC”: for a proper Installation The Pipe Be Made of High Quality Copper. Otherwise There Can Appear Microcracks Through Which The Refrigrant Canporate in Three-Four Months.

Wekk it only by Experience. We test the pipe before use: We Crush it, Bend it, Roll it. And only if you are satiscited with the Quality We Put it Into Operation.

E. Novikov, Polaris: Wrong Installation of the Indoor Unit Iser Right after the Installation. The Consequences of Wrong Installation – Compelled Full Or Partial Remodeling of a Premise or ReinStallation of Air -Conditioner Which Will Be More. Incorrect installation of the outside unit will influence with time, during maintenance and repair, when the inconvenient access to the unit and the need in frequent cleaning of the surfaces will increase the expenses for maintenance.

G. Rumkin, Panasonic: If the Equipment Breakage is Caused by the Breach of Installation Rules, The Consumer Will Havy to Appeal to Court and To Deal with the Company THAT INSTALLELED THE CON.

YES, LAST YEAR THEER WAS A LACK of PIPE and this year the SAME SITUATION CAN HAPPEN. SOME Companies Alread Offer the Variant of Preliminary Installation: At First They Lay A “Pipe”, I.E. A Route, and the They Install An Air Conditioner, When Its Available Or Vice Versa.

The Fitters are Alread Booked a Month Ahead. In Such Situation There Appear “Flying Brigades”, Who Are Ready to Install Twice Cheaper, BUT Nobody Will Guarantee that this this this This Will Work.

BUT. Sidorenko, “Domostroy”: Critical Shortage in the South of America Last Year Was not Observed. TheFore Negative Consequences of Wrong Installation of the Equipment Not Be Observed.

“The Consumer: is it Possible to Save Money on Your Own Air Conditioner Installation??

All Experts Agree That this Shoup Not Be Done Under Any Circumstances. For Proper Installation of Modern Air Conditioner One Needs Knowledge and Skills and Special Tools Vacuum Pump, Rolling to Give The Pipe Correct GeeMetry While Connecting, Crimps, Etcping, Etcping, Etcping, Etcping, Etcping, Etcping, Etcping, Etcping, Etcping, Etcping, Etcping, Etcping, Crimping, Etcping, Etcping, Etcping, Etcping, Crimping, Etcping, Crimping, Etcping, Crimping, ETCPIN. .D. And Consumables.

Otherwise There is a Big Probability to Spuil The Equipment and To Loose The Guarantee of the Produce and To Be Engaged in Service and Repair by Yourself.

According to the Statistics During the First Yearo 98% of Air Conditioners Down Becay of the Fault of Installation. Longevity of Any Conditioner’s work for 85% Also Depends on Installation.

And. Myasnikov Mentioned that this QUESTION BE Born Only in America, Beccouse Abroad People Trying to Give the Installation to Professionals for a Long Time.

M. Cheglakov underlined that air conditioner installation is characterized by some peculiarities: when it is cold no one needs it, when it is hot everyone needs it, and the number of installers is limited and they have an incentive to install more air conditioners for less term. That’s when when in Spring or Autumn There More Chances to Receive a Quality Installation.

BUT. Mithin specified that buying conditioner in one company and installing it in another one, one will inevitably get into a situation when nobody will be responsible for the work of his equipment and if in case of malfunctioning there will be problems with the guarantee, everything will be a quiest of “Who is guilty?”. IF the Equipment and Installation Were Boun in One Specialized Climatic Company, The in Case of Problems it Willle Solve Them.

An Air Conditioner Needs Very Much to be Taken Care of

“Consumer”: How to Take Care of a Split-System? How to Prepare it for the Summer Season?

M. Beizman, “Euroclimate”: Only The Specialists of the Service Department Can Check The Condition of the Outdoor Unit, Clean It. In Order to this You Shoup Contact with A Company, Which Has Installed An Air Conditioner.

BUT. MITIN, “MRC”: We Shoup Undertand that Split-System Is the Same Vacuum Cleaner, Which Works on Air Recirculation it Passes the Whole Volume in the Premise Thromeh ITSEL .

And the Vacuum Cleaner Is Regularly Emptered of Accumulated Dirt. It is with AIR Conditioner: if it will work even day, in aeek or you cano open unit and just the Layer of Dust on Filters.

You Need to Vacuum it, Remove the Filters, Rinse and Dry them, Clean The Heat Exchange, Put the Filters in and Turn it on on. All this you can do yourself in 20 minute.

People do not take care about conditioners for years in fact they mock the equipment and then they are surprised with problems: compressor breaking down and it is choked with down and dirt or water flowing from conditioner to the wall and this is a drainage pipe completely clogged With Dirt for Many Years .

Before the Begining of a Season to Check the Efficency of a Unit it is to do it in march or april, whether it is alreadside and it is getting hot in a roma abeting hot in a roma an25 .

You have to switch on air condination, set the Temperature to +23 ° C and See How It Will Work During the Day. IF It Gives A Cool Air, The Room is Cooled Down, EVERYTHING IS Fine as Always, It Means that EVERYTHING IS All Right with the Air Conditioner.

IF SOMETHING IS Wrong, Its Necessary to Call A Service Team. In April The Service Centers are not Yet Busy and They Will Come Without Problems.

If everybody will clean conditioner by oneself once in two weeks, check its serviceability every year and at least once in two years to call people for outside unit cleaning and refueling, the unit will work long time and there will not be any problems.

In the Season When Conditioner Is Working EVERY DAY YOU CAN Not Switch It Off at All. Set the Temperature to +24 ° C The Most Comfortable for Pekle and Minimum Fan Speed. Exactly +24 ° C, Because The Difference Between Outdoors and Home Temprature Should Not Exseed 7 ° C, Otherwise the Chances OF GETTING GREATLY Increases.

And. Mr. Myasnikov, “TermoTrade”: we can talk much about the energy efficiency classes, but after the first poplitee fluff, when air-conditioner is clogged and it has not been cleaned, the power expenses increase dramatically.

That is who One Shoup Regularly Take Care of An Air Conditioner. There are instructions How to Clean the Inside Unit, There Are Special Cleaners, Which Arend for Spraying the Heat-Exchange and the Wash It Off with The Ordinary Tap Water and Its.

All that concerns the outor unit – You Shoup Call a Specialist. This Shoup Be Done at Least Once a year, in the Spring, Before the Summer Season. Althrow It Woold Be More Correct to It Twice – In Spring and In Autumn, and then According to Circumstances for Example, if thermplaints or Suspicium .
