New range features superior noise control
BELOW: The MSZ-AP Series features Dual Barrier Coating, designed to reduce dust and greasy dirt from entering the air conditioner.
oped by Mitsubishi Electric, Dual Barrier Coat- ing works like a nonstick surface, providing long-lasting protection to the heat exchanger, fan and air ducts.
This innovation makes maintenance easier, and the system stays cleaner for longer. There’s a potential reduced impact for the environment too, as the Mitsubishi Electric MSZ series uses R32 refrigerant, which has one-third the global warming potential of R410A.
Along with superior noise control and cleanli- ness, a key feature of the MSZ-AP Series is its connectivity.
The series connects your Mitsubishi Electric air conditioner to your smartphone or online ac- count*, granting the freedom to control each unit online enabling the flexibility to control household temperature anywhere, anytime. Mit- subishi Electric Wi-Fi Control is compatible across Google Home and Amazon Alexa.
* Optional additional adapter MAC-568IF-E required per unit.
MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC HAS launched its newest line of innovative air conditioners into the Australian market - the MSZ-AP Series.
The new split system range, designed for the modern home, features components set to cater to the needs of everyday Australians, all year round.
Models range from 2.5 to 7.8 kW, so there is a capacity to suit almost all cooling and heating re- quirements around the home. The MSZ-AP Se- ries features new technology, which provides ul- tra-quiet operation during the day and even quieter at night. For an even more peaceful sleep, consumers can also engage Night Mode to reduce the brightness of the operational panel, disable beep noises, and limit noise of the outdoor unit.
The smaller sized 25 model is ideal for provid-
ing a very quiet heating option for the rooms where it’s needed the most, such as bedrooms. Mitsubishi Electric Australia’s national product manager, Atesh Mani, said the series includes the
quietest model that the brand has ever released. “This is Mitsubishi Electric’s quietest ever mod- el which runs so smoothly that consumers may need to check whether the device has even been turned on,” he said. “Operating at a noise level as low as 18 dB(A) for the 25 size model in heating mode, this series will let consumers sleep peace- fully again. To put that in perspective, that is qui- eter than the level of noise from a rustling of leaves.” The MSZ-AP Series features Dual Barrier Coating, designed to reduce dust and greasy dirt from entering the air conditioner.

HVAC odour neutralizer eliminates VOCs
NCH HAS JUST released the Cast Out Block, which actually eliminates odour molecules, even on a large scale.
Ideal for hotels, restaurants, shopping malls and commercial buildings, the Cast Out Block is installed in the air handler or return duct, treat- ing 10 to 15 tonne systems for up to four months.
Bad smells are actually volatile organic com- pounds (VOCs) which certain liquids and solids release when they emit gas. The concentration of VOCs can be up to ten times higher indoors than outdoors and can have adverse health effects in either the short or long term.
Materials like wood and carpet are porous. They hold on to fluids containing VOCs for months, re- sulting in chronic odour and pollutant concerns.
Traditional commercial odour systems use powerful scents to mask bad smells, leaving the VOC molecules in the air. To actually re- move the odour molecules, it’s necessary to physically pull the chemical out of the air, a process called adsorption.
The solution comes in the form of a new odour abatement technology from NCH called Cast Out Block. Rather than masking VOCs, it uses a compound called Carbon Z, made from pure carbon particles that are treated to in- crease their surface area, creating a chemical that acts like a sponge.
Cast Out Block improves indoor air quality by treating air throughout the HVAC system, so it effectively removes odours.
