With this in mind, let’s dive deeper into the unique features of Mitsubishi Electric heating and cooling systems!

Key Features of Mitsubishi Systems

Let’s look at some of the key features of Mitsubishi Electric heating and cooling systems!

1. Advanced Inverter and Filters

Mitsubishi models reduce noise levels and operate more efficiently day and night

With inverter technology, air conditioning units can adjust their power and speed based on a room’s temperature needs, maintaining a consistent, comfortable temperature for the entire family.

As the compressor isn’t constantly stopping and starting, Mitsubishi models reduce noise levels and operate more efficiently day and night.

  • MSZ-EF Series wall-mounted air conditioner

The MSZ-EF Series wall-mounted air conditioner includes a Plasma Quad Connect air purifying filter, which improves indoor air quality by inhibiting six key pollutants (Influenza, bacteria, PM2, allergens, mould, and dust), giving peace of mind and reassurance for the home, school, or office.

Some Mitsubishi models include Dual Barrier Coating, which reduces dust, airborne contaminants, and greasy dirt from accumulating on the surfaces of the air conditioner.

2. Econo Cool Mode and More for Energy Efficiency

By adjusting the airflow direction based on temperature, the Econo Cool Mode in Mitsubishi Electric models allows users to experience comfort without using too much energy.

Mitsubishi Electric systems offer high-efficiency compressors as fans consume less power, yet still offer powerful cooling options. With high energy ratings, Mitsubishi's systems are better for the environment and the wallet. Reducing energy consumption by adapting to the needs of the spaces, it has never been easier to customize comfort. The Blue Fin Condenser feature of the MSZ-AP Series split system is an anti-corrosive treatment applied to the heat exchanger of the outdoor unit, which slows down the corrosion process of the aluminum fins.

How do users use the New Zoned Energy Rating Label to calculate the running costs?

  • Determine the size of the split system the user requires for the room.
  • If user’re unsure of what zone user’re in, look at the map of Australia on the Zoned Energy Rating Label.
  • Draw a comparison between air conditioner star ratings in the zone and make a selection based on energy use and what is more efficient. Download the New Energy Ratings Flyer to look at potential energy savings!
  • Calculate the annual running costs by using the Energy Rating Calculator.

3. R32 Refrigerant: An Eco-Friendly Choice

R32 refrigerant enables increased energy efficiency in comparison to R410A, reducing the risk

The Mitsubishi Electric R32 refrigerant enables increased energy efficiency in comparison to R410A, reducing the risk of harm to the environment.

Additionally, there are powerful options for commercial spaces, such as office buildings.

  • MSZ-GS Series split system

Mitsubishi’s VRF (Variable Refrigerant Flow) systems are excellent for larger buildings and give the user control over each zone. For example, ceiling cassettes and ducted units offer discreet and efficient cooling for retail spaces and offices, with advanced filtration systems that improve air quality and create a healthy work environment for employees and customers.

The MSZ-GS Series split system air conditioner includes the Anti-Allergy Enzyme Filter, which works to trap allergens such as mould and bacteria by using retained enzymes. In the long term, businesses can save time and money.

4. Customisable Heating or Cooling

Mitsubishi split systems are popular for homes because they offer a wide range of custom options for every family member. This is especially true for multi-head split systems, where every room has its climate-control system.

The MSZ-AP Mini includes Night Mode, which reduces the brightness of the operation indicator light, disables beep noises, and limits the noise level of the outdoor unit.

  • I-Save Mode

Quiet Mode of the MSZ-AP Series gives the user a super quiet operation as low as 18dB

The I-Save Mode is a simplified setting function that remembers the preferred temperature at the press of a button on the remote controller. Likewise, the Quiet Mode of the MSZ-AP Series gives the user a super quiet operation as low as 18dB, so the user’ll always have a good sleep!

Does the user need to heat or cool multiple spaces? Multi-zone heating and cooling works by connecting several indoor units to a single outdoor unit, each with climate control options. Achieve the desired temperature in different rooms without wasting power.

5. Smart Technology and Connectivity

Many models also feature Wi-Fi control, so it is easy to adjust the heating and cooling settings remotely from work, interstate, or wherever users are.

  • For total home comfort, users can connect the Mitsubishi air conditioner to their smartphone, tablet, or online account. An optional Wi-Fi adaptor is required per unit, as well as an app downloaded with the latest operating system. To use Amazon Alexa to control the air conditioner, the user will need an Amazon Alexa Echo device. If the user wishes, the user can also use the Google Home Smart speaker!
  • The cleaning-free pipe re-use technology allows the re-use of existing refrigerant pipe which may reduce the installation costs by eliminating the need to replace existing pipework. This system is fitted with a ‘wide strainer’, capturing iron particles and preventing them from entering the outdoor unit.
  • Guaranteed operating range–within – 5 degrees Celcius to 46 degrees Celcius–the air conditioner will operate when the user needs it to!
  • Demand response capable. The SUZ-M, MUZ-AP25-80, and MUZ-AS90 outdoor units allow the electricity provider to activate and control the system at 3 preprogrammed modes when needing to reduce peak demand.
  • The MSZ-LN Series includes a 3D i-See Sensor feature, an infrared sensor that measures the temperature at distant positions. Moving to the left and right, 8 vertically arranged sensor elements analyze the room temperature in three dimensions.

6. Product Range and Versatility

As for ducted reverse cycle Mitsubishi models, these are excellent whole-home heating and cooling solutions that offer versatility and precision.

  • PEAD-M-JAAD Series
