Comfort for all of New Zealand
Are you looking for a convenient, energy efficient
system that provides comfortable, controllable
heating in winter, summer cooling and air
purification year round? Are you worried about the
continuing price rise of electricity, the uncertainty
of long-term gas supply or clean air regulations
curbing the use of combustible heating sources?
The answer lies in reverse cycle air conditioning by
Mitsubishi Electric.
Relax in comfort from burning summer days or
freezing cold nights with up to three times the
energy efficiency of conventional heating
appliances. Mitsubishi Electric cuts your heating
costs, and your budget.
Our extensive feature rich range ensures there is a
model to meet your needs, whilst our
contemporary styling will compliment any interior.
All this with the whisper quietness you have come
to expect from Mitsubishi Electric.
Everyone deserves a home where you feel just
how you want to feel all year round and we are
pleased to make it possible.
How does it work?
It's actually quite simple. Mitsubishi Electric air
conditioners works in much the same way as your
refrigerator, except there are two separate but
integral parts to the system. There is an outside unit
housing the compressor that is similar to the
exterior back of your fridge. It draws warmth from
the outside air in even the coldest of weather. That
warmth is then transferred inside the home using a
refrigerant process through a piping system
powered by an indoor fan unit that is typically
mounted to the wall. This is why the system is also
often referred to as a heat pump rather then air
conditioning. Both are in fact the same. Similarly, in
summer the reverse happens. Warm air is drawn
from the interior room and expelled by the outside
unit.
Mitsubishi Electric air conditioners (or heat pumps)
are capable of transferring 3kW of heat into a space
while only consuming 1kW of electrical energy. This
makes them extremely energy efficient. The energy
efficiency of a heat pump decreases as the
temperature difference between inside and outside
becomes greater, but it typically provides 3 or more
times as much heat as a normal electric space
heater would provide with the same amount of
electricity input.
