JAX Air Conditioners Review: Error Codes, Comparison of Model Characteristics

JAX Hi-Tech Equipment & Engineering is a country of origin Australia. The company produces refrigeration machines, duct air conditioners, household and industrial climatic equipment. It has its own research center, where innovative solutions are developed and new models of split systems, floor-ceiling, wall-mounted, duct, cassette and mobile air conditioners are created.

Series of air conditioners and their differences

JAX company produces several series of household split systems, floor and window monoblock air conditioners. They differ significantly in their technical capabilities, functionality and technology.

ACN series (NEO)

This series, jax split systems, includes six models that differ only in power and the size of the optimal service area. This series is positioned as a budget one, has a minimum functionality and a standard set of operating modes. Its main advantage is its affordable cost. It is recommended to use it in office premises, where the noise from the outdoor and indoor units will not be so noticeable.

ACI series (NEO PLUS)

Includes only three models. The main difference from the previous series is the use of inverter technology in JAX split systems. This provides significant advantages over conventional models:

• in energy saving;
• the silence of work;
• durability of equipment;
• the set temperature is maintained more accurately and smoothly.

However, many users and sellers do not recommend installing inverter split systems in small rooms, since frequent activation of the air conditioner will negate all savings. Considering that the lineup of the ACI series is rather limited and contains precisely low-power devices, only the ACI 20HE model is suitable for efficient operation.

ACE Series (Elegance)

ACE indoor units are positioned as more aesthetic, do not spoil the interior of the room, have a reduced noise level and slightly expanded functionality, such as:

• programming the activation of the device;
• auto cleaning system;
• self-diagnosis system;
• function of maintaining a comfortable temperature, etc.

This series is distinguished by a wide variety of models. However, according to reviews, outdoor units tend to vibrate during active operation.

ACK series (Kangaroo)

Jax ACE air conditioners are more functional. It is worth noting a large number of operating modes:

• drainage;
• ionization;
• sleeping mode;
• auto mode.

The functions of the control system have also been significantly expanded:

• adjustment of the position of the blinds (8 positions);
• blowing;
• turbo mode;
• ample opportunities for programming the inclusion and functioning.

ACW Series (Whisper)

Represents several models of monoblock window air conditioner. Devices are significantly limited in power. It is recommended to use them for servicing small spaces. In addition, during their operation, vibrations inevitably occur, transmitted to the window and glass units.

ACM Series (Mobile)

The series is represented by several models of JAX ACM 14/12/09 BHE mobile air conditioners. The devices can serve rooms from 18 to 45 m²... All functions are available: heating, cooling, dehumidification, ventilation. Switching modes is carried out both from the remote control and from the air conditioner panel.The set includes a corrugated hose, an adapter and a plug for the window to remove the heat flow.

Comparison of characteristics of popular models

In addition, there are certain characteristics that are common to almost all models of jax air conditioners, these are the presence:

• self-diagnosis and automatic protection system;
• automated restart functions;
• dehumidification and ionization function;
• 4-knee heat exchanger with anti-corrosion casing and aluminum fins;
• the presence of a dustproof system;
• the presence of an auto cleaning system;
• air purification is carried out through a multi-filter "three in one", biofilter, carbon filter.

All presented air conditioners are safe for the environment and use r410a freon, which does not contain chlorine.

JAX Remote Control and Air Conditioning Manual

The functional capabilities of most models of split systems, stationary, floor and mobile air conditioners Jax ACL and ACM, are generally similar. The remote control is a universal device with the same arrangement of toggle buttons. The functionality depends on the device model.

A description of the operating modes of air conditioners and their switching control are attached below in the pages of instructions for the remote control.

When the function of maintaining the comfortable temperature is activated, jax air conditioners will be guided by the temperature sensor located in the remote control. Therefore, it is not recommended to place the remote control in places subject to temperature exposure.

Jax air conditioner error codes

The jax air conditioner error codes have a rather limited informative value. Pay particular attention to the indicators on the control panel. If they start blinking at a speed of about 5 times per second, then you must immediately disconnect the air conditioner from the power supply system. After waiting 2-3 minutes, turn off the device again. The reasons for the error can be as follows:

In most cases, malfunctions occurring during the operation of the indoor and outdoor unit require specialist intervention. Attempts to fix them on your own can lead to even greater breakdowns, and as a result, significantly increased repair costs. However, before calling the wizard, it is recommended to change the batteries in the control panel, turn off the air conditioner for a few minutes and turn it on again by restarting the system.

User reviews

The Jax company appeared on the Russian market of climatic equipment relatively recently, but quickly won its niche and now its products are positioned as high-quality products with a decent set of functionality at an affordable price. As experience shows, the advantages of jax air conditioners are quite similar for all model lines: ELEGANCE; KANGAROO; NEO:

• Affordable price in comparison with models of well-known manufacturers with comparable technical characteristics;
• Quite high quality of products and reliability of construction;
• Extensive functionality fully consistent with the manufacturer's declared;

However, some users make certain comments. For example, the external design of some budget models leaves much to be desired, which does not affect their performance. Plastic on some products turns yellow rather quickly if they are installed in places of intense sunlight. External blocks of some models, when turned on, off and working for heating, give quite a lot of vibration. As the representatives of the manufacturer's company explained, this effect is the result of minor mistakes made during the installation of the device.To prevent shock vibration of the outdoor unit, it is recommended to install it on special damper rubber washers.

The feedback and overall impression of JAX Hi-Tech Equipment & Engineering products is very positive. This is inexpensive, but functional and reliable climatic equipment that will perform well the tasks assigned to it. Can be used in a private home, office, or small store.
