What is "Reverse Cycle" Air Conditioning?
The ability to heat with the same cooling equipment. Approx. 3 times better than electric heaters. |
|
Inverter Technology Advantages: Smooth temperatures ±0.5°c (standard ±1.5°c) Energy savings, 5 to 8 years payback period. Quieter when on low loads. Heating is 25% stronger than standard. Softer starting for larger units (no lights dimming). Multi units can have several indoor heads. |

Disadvantages: Extra cost up front. Breakdowns can be complex and expensive if variable frequency drive or PC boards fail. Parts availability could increase down time.
Digital Capacity Technology
New products are available benefits of Inverters without the complex electronics.
Energy Efficiency
CEILING INSULATION? YES! The more the better .. GLASS SHADING, Tinting & Curtains? YES, especially western windows. ROOF VENTS?YES, whirlybirds relieve heat. CLOSE DOORS to rooms not needed. STAIRWAYS close off if possible to reduce HOT AIR RISING & COLD AIR FALLING. |

You can spend extra money on a larger air conditioner, electricity and wear and tear OR ... ... install R3 batts ($800-$1000). This will keep your new comfort in and actually save yourself money. |

Some brands are expensive and difficult to repair. During "Warranty Period'; we will fix products we sell in reasonable time' or if the manufacturer can not supply the parts we will renew the whole unit at our cost (conventional non-inverter systems). |
