Another new addition to the range of inverter split-systems of GREE company is the model U-Crown. It is similar to its predecessors in design – a thin indoor unit with U-shaped ends. And here is a fundamentally new and spectacular – with a textured silver surface. On the front panel, there is a place for the temperature indicator, also in high-tech style.
Inverter split system with wall indoor unit GREE U-Crown KFR-26GW
Model description
The changes didn’t only affect the design U-Crown belongs to the new series GREE – Super Inverter. It is equipped with the innovative G10 inverter compressor that has increased its energy efficiency by 40% in cooling and 35% in heating. The air conditioner is energy efficiency class A-H-+. Thanks to the inverter technology and a special design of the heat exchanger of the internal unit, the model makes very little noise in silent mode, its level is 18 dB, which is almost imperceptible to the human ear .
The split system can operate at outdoor temperatures from -30 to +54 °C.
U-Crown uses a multi-speed fan and vertical louvers with the ability to distribute the air in a sector of 160 degrees horizontally and 130 degrees vertically. Can cool, heat and dehumidify, with multiple modes of operation: turbo, night, automatic, economy.
When a split-system works in a heating mode, it heats the heat-exchanger first, and only then turns on the fans, so that people in the room are not uncomfortable with the cold airflow. Besides, the air conditioner automatically defrosts heat exchangers of the indoor unit when operating on cooling in negative temperatures in order to eliminate the risk of breakage.
Three-stage air purification system is installed in the indoor unit. It consists of a pre-filter to trap coarse dirt particles, a silver ionic anti-bacterial filter and an efficient photocatalytic filter.
