In the modern market of climatic systems and air conditioners, the products of General Climate stand out favorably. Customer reviews indicate that the characteristics declared by the manufacturer generally correspond to the operation of the equipment, and the proposed solutions are distinguished by a thoughtful combination of user properties and an attractive combination of price and quality.
The General Climate brand includes air conditioners and split systems of almost all modifications, as well as fan equipment, humidity control systems and a number of other types of climatic equipment.
The solutions offered by the brand are distinguished by one interesting feature - there are always two branches of the engineering implementation of devices. For example, if we consider air conditioners, there are non-inverter and inverter models with approximately the same characteristics and close cost.
General characteristics of the General Climate brand solutions
One of the mobile General Climate models
Considering the general features of General Climate equipment, excellent user characteristics can be noted, which are expressed in:
- very attractive cost;
- mobile, cassette, duct, split systems and other air conditioners are distinguished by precisely thought-out characteristics;
- during the development, the manufacturer applied the principle of individuality of use - General Climate air conditioners work perfectly in the conditions for which they are intended.
Such characteristics allow us to clearly state: the benefit from buying General Climate products is maximum. Malfunctions are rare, devices are economical, efficient, simple to operate and widely applicable.
Mobile air conditioners General Climate
The General Climate range of mobile solutions comes in three main models, offering features that will appeal to a multitude of users.
Structurally, mobile air conditioners are made in a monoblock design. When used, it is planned to remove warm air outside the refrigerated room, for which all air conditioners are equipped with a convenient air duct.
The only drawback that mobile air conditioners have is the absence of a condensate evaporation system. The liquid gradually accumulates in the lower tray, which requires periodic cleaning and emptying. The control of the condensate level and the issuance of a corresponding signal are provided.
Despite some inconvenience of models with condensation accumulation, mobile solutions from General Climate are very popular. Customer reviews indicate that air conditioners are simple to operate, they rarely have malfunctions, they do not require frequent periodic cleaning or other special maintenance, and the characteristics of the devices are quite sufficient for domestic use. In addition, a separate range of models provides for condensate drainage through the duct.
Window air conditioners
General Climate window air conditioner with mechanical control
General Climate window air conditioners outperform many competitors in terms of ease of use and efficiency, in particular, solutions from General Electric. The brand's catalog contains 7 main models offering different characteristics.
All window air conditioners are distinguished by a monoblock design, which does not need cleaning, the use of forced evaporation of condensate, a high-quality and quiet compressor is installed in them.General Climate window air conditioners do not require frequent maintenance and, as evidenced by customer reviews, they are characterized by high efficiency and low noise from the compressor.
Depending on your needs, it is possible to purchase a device that will match the characteristics of the room without overloading the power supply. In particular, the manufacturer offers models that, with an air capacity of 340 cubic meters per hour, consume only 750 watts of power.
Window-type air conditioners are controlled either from the panel located on the device unit, or from a convenient remote control. There is a mechanically operated model in the product line for which no remote control is provided.
Window air conditioners are characterized by a high level of reliability. They rarely malfunction, all that is required is periodic cleaning. At the same time, the air conditioner is quiet and consumes very little electricity.
Inverter and non-inverter split systems
For convenience, two product lines can be considered, since, as mentioned above, the manufacturer's approach is distinguished by duplicating key characteristics and offering a different set of functions for the two types of devices. Inverter air conditioners are represented on the market by the most famous Africa series, and the corresponding non-inverter models are represented by the Alfa-Neo series. Non-inverter air conditioners offer minimal functionality:
- work in cooling and heating modes;
- low power consumption, which is confirmed by customer reviews;
- the temperature range of the incoming air in the cooling mode is from 18 to 43 degrees, in the heating mode - from -7 to 24;
- a low-noise compressor is used, and the applied engineering solutions do not require special maintenance or cleaning, malfunctions, as customer reviews testify, are very rare.
If we consider the best-selling household model with a recommended room area of 22 square meters, not Alfa-Neo inverter units consume a fixed 0.82 kW of power in cooling mode, but Africa inverter ones, the control of which implies non-linear characteristics - from 0.2 to 1.35 ...
At the same time, General Climate inverter split systems provide additional functionality:
- reduced noise level, which is realized in the form of a special design of the casing and the fact that the compressor always operates at optimal loads;
- air ionizer as standard;
- air conditioners are equipped with a special catechin filter, the set also includes a photocatalytic filter;
- filter cleaning does not require much effort;
- the backlight of the indoor unit is turned off;
- malfunctions are rare because the design uses a compressor from the Mitsubishi or Daikin brands.
The reliability of air conditioners is very high, both inverter and non-inverter models do not require frequent mandatory maintenance. Customer reviews indicate that General Climate split systems can be called solutions with an optimal price-quality ratio.
Semi-industrial systems
In the multi-split systems sector, General Climate has a direct competitor - General Electric, one of the most famous companies operating in this sector. However, General Climate multi-split air conditioners with cassette units show the best price-quality ratio, guarantee easy maintenance and convenient operation, and if we consider the pure characteristics of the devices, General Electric products have no chance in direct comparison.
Multi-split systems with cassette units are able to provide a comfortable climate in rooms of a large area, while they consume relatively little power and generate an impressive air flow.
At the same time, the devices are characterized by low produced noise, they are equipped with a compressor from Mitsubishi or Daikin, and additional functions are designed so that the climate in the room is provided in a fully automatic mode. For example, the ME4C12HRN1 model has the following features:
- quiet operation at night;
- timer shutdown function;
- automatic restart in case of power outages;
- a large selection of indoor units;
- the possibility of laying routes up to 75 meters.
Uniquely reliable, quiet compressor, extremely rare malfunctions, low energy consumption and excellent indoor climate - this is how General Climate cassette multi-split systems can be summarized.
Duct air conditioners
General Climate channel air conditioners deserve separate consideration. This type of equipment is able to create the desired climate in a really large room. Models differ in terms of air pressure. Ducted air conditioners General Climate are presented as low-pressure (up to 80 Pa pressure), and medium (up to 96 Pa) and high-pressure (up to 200 Pa) solutions.
It is ideal to use ducted air conditioners for servicing rooms with a ceiling height of up to 6.5 m. At the same time, General Climate solutions look very attractive, since they do not require complex maintenance, malfunctions are rare, periodic cleaning is simple, and control is carried out from a convenient remote control. In the line of models offered by the manufacturer, there are channel air conditioners of various capacities, from 5 to 56 kW.
