Climat reverse cycle air conditioning can both cool your home in summertime and warm it up to prevent freezing in winter. It also eliminates the need for you to buy multiple devices like fans and gas/electric heaters.
Besides, reverse cycles can be used to purify the air, making them an excellent choice for people with asthma and hay fever. They are also very energy efficient, so they are better for the environment.
Energy efficiency
A reverse cycle system uses a fraction of the energy needed for separate heating and cooling systems, delivering year-round comfort. That reduced energy consumption means your power bills will reduce over time.
The physics of reverse cycle air conditioning is simple: to heat your home, the system absorbs thermal energy from the surrounding air and adds it to your interior space. When it’s time to cool, the system reverses this process – removing heat from your indoor air and expelling it outside.
Reverse cycle systems are also a more environmentally friendly option than standard electric heaters, with one-third of the greenhouse gas emissions of a standard electric heater. The new R32 refrigerant used in split system reverse cycle air conditioners also has a 66% lower global warming potential than the conventional R410A.
Less greenhouse gas emissions
With the right size unit installed, it can offer the utmost comfort while also being very cost-effective. Having a licenced, professional dealer come and survey your house is vital to ensure that the system you choose is the correct size for your household and will serve its purpose. If it is too large, it will be unnecessarily amazing and decline efficiency, while if it’s too small, it will be unable to heat your house effectively.
Reverse cycle systems are also safe for children as they don’t produce any flames or hot surfaces and are installed high up, away from the reach of young hands. It reduces the risk of injury caused by children accidentally touching a conventional electric heater or portable fan.
Less noise
Reverse-cycle air conditioning is one of the most energy-efficient ways to heat a home. It also reduces noise levels, and many units are quieter than other heating methods. They can also be fitted with sound-absorbing insulation to reduce noise from the unit further.
Ducted reverse cycle air conditioning can be used to cool your home in summer and warm it in winter. It works via a series of ceiling-mounted interior ducts and an outdoor compressor unit. It is connected to a central thermostat control that allows you to set temperatures for different zones of your home or property.
A ducted reverse cycle air conditioner also comes with a clean air filter pack, which filters the incoming air and helps remove odours, pollen, bacteria, dust and other harmful particles. It is particularly important in Australia, where high rates of asthma and hay fever occur.
Less maintenance
Climat reverse cycle air conditioning can be a lot more efficient than dedicated heaters in terms of electricity use, cost and heat output. Moreover, they can heat and cool your home all year round. It saves you from having to buy and store different heating and cooling devices, plus the time it takes to switch them on and off each day.
Reverse cycles are also one of the most environmentally friendly ways to heat a house. They produce around a third less greenhouse gas than conventional electric heaters. Furthermore, many top-of-the-line reverse cycle models feature inverter technology. This system monitors room temperature and adjusts power to maintain an optimum indoor environment, so it uses only the minimum amount of energy needed.
If you’re thinking of getting a reverse cycle air conditioner, it is important to choose the right size unit for your living space. If your unit is too small for the room, it will have to run constantly, resulting in higher electricity bills than an appropriately sized air conditioner.
