Before buying an Air Conditioner, ask around or read as much as you can, so you may buy the best AC according to the needs of your living space. As soon as you get the unit at your home, it is not the manufacturer’s duty to take care of it. Machines need as much care as any other human.
There is no lie that a good manufacturer shall ensure the durability of the machine. Yet you have a pivotal role to play in catering to the needs of the machine. Hence, it is important to know what gas is used in DC Inverter Air Conditioners. Moreover, make your purchasing at Hyundai Power, so your AC does not demand as much care as others do.
What is a DC Inverter Air Conditioner?
In the DC Inverter Air Conditioner, the compressor works non-stop. When the AC has reached the desired temperature of the room, the compressor will slow down. While working on a slow speed, it will work along with the fan and try to keep under control the temperature of the room. This is the new technology, for previously the compressors worked on start and stop mechanism. Since this innovation, the DC Inverter ACs have become everyone’s first choice.
In Air Conditioners, refrigerants are used so they may absorb heat from the environment and provide you with cool air in return. There are several types of Refrigerants in the market, all of them have their own pros and cons. So, see below and select the Air conditioner with the gas that suits you the best.
Refrigerants or Coolants in Air Conditioners
As mentioned above, refrigerants and coolants are responsible for cooling or heating the room. This refrigerant resides inside the copper coils. As refrigerant absorbs heat from the room it converts to a liquid from a gaseous state. Then a fan emits hot air over the copper coils and the liquid is sent outside.
When it reaches outside, it cools down and transforms back into a gas. These coils then receive air from a fan that consequently reaches to your living space all cooled down. This process goes on repeating as long as the room reaches the desired temperature.
Types of Refrigerants and Coolants
There are several types of refrigerants and coolants that are used by different manufacturers. Mostly, the new kind of refrigerant obsoleted the previous coolant. The common four refrigerants are, R12, R22, R410A, R32. These types are discussed below in detail, so you know which refrigerant you should go for.
R12 Refrigerant for Air Conditioners
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), including R12, were commonly used in the production of AC units in the 1980s. As the research was conducted it was evident that this gas was significantly contributing to the depletion of the ozone layer and enhanced the greenhouse gas effect. Hence, in 1994, a strict action was taken against the Chlorofluorocarbons, and its production was banned completely. This gas was then taken over by R22.
R22 Refrigerant for Air Conditioners
R22 replaced the R12 that was initially considered to be safer than R12. Later it discovered that it was not safe, only less harmful than the previous refrigerant. So, in 2010 according to the Clean Air Act, the R22 was supposed to be ruled out completely by 2020. Hence, manufacturers do not use this coolant anymore.
R410A
R22 was replaced by R410A which is a hydrofluorocarbon (HFCs). It was considered way too environmentally safer than R22. According to the stats presented by the Global Warming Potential (GWP) it would have 2090 times the impact to the environment as one kilogram of carbon. Hence, according to the Ozone Depletion Potential, R410A has a 0 effect on the environment.
R32 Refrigerant for Air Conditioners
Although R32 and R410A have an ODP – Ozone Depletion Potential of 0, yet many manufacturers are opting for R32. The reason behind this shift is said to be its impeccable performance. It is more reliable when it comes to saving the environment, as well as it consumes less energy, is cost and energy efficient and safe. If put in comparison with R410A, its GWP is 30% lower.
Hence, purchase DC Inverter Air Conditioners from Hyundai Power in Pakistan. They use the best technology and latest features to design their ACs. To make them power and energy efficient, as well as, environmentally friendly. So, their customers enjoy the best of the best while not causing any damage to the mother nature.
