Consumables for air conditioners are materials and tools required for the installation of climate control systems. The quality of consumables for the installation of air conditioners plays a crucial role in the further operation of the equipment. One of the largest and most reliable suppliers is Constanta. Air conditioner consumables purchased here are checked by experts.
Copper pipe
An inch-diameter copper pipe is used as a refrigerant line. The pipe must be sufficiently soft (copper at least 99.9%), with a wall thickness according to the standard. Otherwise, it will not be possible to make high-quality connections using rolling. The best samples of consumables for the installation of air conditioners come from factories in Finland, Italy, Germany, Serbia and Greece. But among the products of Ukrainian and Chinese manufacturers there are also excellent products. However, it is possible to run into products with thin walls, made of poor quality alloy. The pipe is sold in lengths (whips) and coils.
Thermal insulation
Other names: Enegroflex, Thermoflex. Insulation is made of foamed rubber (K-flex) or polyethylene. K-flex is more durable and provides better insulation, but also more expensive. Therefore, polyethylene insulation is often used as a consumable for installing an air conditioner in an apartment.
Drainage pipe
A drain hose is required to drain condensate from the air conditioner housing. Most often it is a thin corrugated PVC tube. One should choose such that it does not bend. This property is possessed by a special drainage hose. The use of unsuitable consumables for the installation of the air conditioner can lead to early breakdowns.
Refrigerants for air conditioners
Freon occupies a special place among consumables for air conditioners. It is not so much needed during installation as during further operation, because the air conditioner has to be refueled at least once every 2 years.
On sale you can find both the most common types for domestic climate systems R22 and R410a, and freons for auto air conditioners: R407, R507, R12, R134. Refrigerants are sold in small disposable cartridges or large ones designed for several refills.
Electrical cable
The cable must be purchased, since this consumable for the air conditioner is not included in the delivery set.
Most often, a PVA cable is used to connect household climatic systems, sometimes you cannot do without a shielded MKESh cable.
Brackets for outdoor units
The quality of these consumables for air conditioners must be given close attention, because they are constantly under the influence of aggressive external factors.
To prevent the brackets from rusting and peeling off the paint, you should choose products from a reliable manufacturer. The weight of the outdoor unit can be up to 30 kilograms, so the strength of this consumable for the air conditioner is important. Constanta also offers stands for floor mounting.
