Installation of a 24,000 BTU air conditioner for a 48 sqm living room with a high ceiling at 2.9m, without insulation, with aluminum windows and an insulated terrace on top. The 18,000 BTU unit would have been borderline and would struggle (meaning it would consume more).
Well, let's start with the appearance, it's a gem. Since the house is renovated in a minimal dark gray color, the choice was a one-way street. All the other dark air conditioners I saw were terrible. Of course, this is subjective.
Let's talk about performance. It's powerful! It cools and heats quickly and maintains the temperature exactly as you have set it over time.
It doesn't have a follow me feature, meaning it doesn't read the temperature from the remote control, and its thermostat is on the indoor unit. However, it has accurate measurement and that is more important in the long run (I have seen how cheap follow me functions work, and they are not good).
-In hot weather/using it continuously for 24 hours without interruption, set at 29⁰-30⁰ when we are away, 25⁰-27⁰ when we come home, and in sleep mode at 28⁰ at night:
Total daily consumption for 24 hours of operation is 11 kWh.
-In cold weather/with an external temperature of 2⁰ at night and 4⁰ during the day, set at 17⁰-18⁰ throughout the day. The room did not drop below 19⁰, and when we come home in the afternoon, we increase it to 22-23⁰, where it holds up remarkably well!
Total daily consumption for 24 hours of operation is 17 kWh. (Note: the apartment does not have any other form of heating).
Regarding the noise, what noise? As the refrigeration technician with extensive experience told me, the Dark series is the quietest in Inventor. He is right! Both the indoor and outdoor units are silent. Many times I go out to the balcony to check if it's working!
I recommend paying close attention to the installation part with an experienced refrigeration technician because some comments I read about noise or poor performance are a matter of proper installation!
In short, it's a superb machine! From me, it gets a 5 out of 5! One of the best investments I have made in my house! Well done, Inventor!
