Single Room Heat Pump / Air Conditioning Solutions

Small heat pumps / air conditioning units are generally designed to heat or cool smaller areas such as individual rooms. They are ideal for use in bedrooms, small offices, or areas that do not require a large cooling or heating capacity.

The cooling capacity of a small single room heat pump / air conditioner typically ranges from 2.0 to 5.0 kW, which is suitable for areas up to 45 square metres. However, the actual heating/cooling capacity required will depend on various factors, such as the size of the room, number of windows, insulation type, the number of people using the space, and the amount of sunlight and heat generated by electronic equipment or appliances.

To determine the capacity required for your single room heat pump / air conditioner, a calculation needs to be performed which looks at a number of factors such as room and window size, aspect, and insulation type. 

As a helpful guide to finding what size heat pump / air conditioner you may need, you can use the Fujitsu Assist Product Selector Tool, located on our website. However, the best way to find out what size unit you need for your room or home is to contact one of our Fujitsu Accredited Installers who are able to assess your space and determine the best unit to suit your needs.

A single room heat pump / air conditioner should offer a number of comfort and convenience features, regardless of its price. Here are a number of features you should look for when purchasing a small heat pump / air conditioner:

• Different Operation Modes: Different operation modes give you the choice of how you run your heat pump / air conditioner. A quiet operation, for example, allows you to maintain a comfortable temperature almost silently, while an economy mode helps maximise energy efficiency. 

• Timers: The ability to precisely control your heat pump / air conditioner to turn on and off at specific times of day gives you maximum control over the temperature inside your home.

• Automated Functionality: Whether it’s automatically restarting after a power outage or switching between modes based on the selected temperature, a heat pump / air conditioner with automated functionality helps make the process of heating or cooling your home that much easier.

Fujitsu General’s single room heat pump / air conditioners include all the features listed above for easy and efficient cooling and heating of your home.

Heat pumps / air conditioners offer numerous energy efficiency benefits compared to traditional heating and cooling systems. They achieve this by leveraging innovative technologies that optimise energy consumption while providing effective climate control.

Heat pumps / air conditioners operate by transferring heat from one area to another, rather than generating heat directly. They extract heat from the outdoor air during colder months and reverse the process during warmer months. This process allows heat pumps / air conditioners to deliver more energy for heating or cooling compared to the energy they consume.

Most modern heat pumps / air conditioners also utilise inverter technology. This technology allows the appliances to adjust their operating capacity according to the required heating or cooling load. By continuously modulating their power output, these systems can maintain a stable and comfortable indoor environment while consuming only the necessary amount of energy. Inverter technology ensures that energy is used efficiently, reducing unnecessary power wastage.

When choosing a heat pump / air conditioner, it’s crucial to consider the Energy Star rating. Energy Star is an internationally recognised symbol for energy efficiency. Products with higher Energy Star ratings indicate superior energy performance, helping consumers make more informed choices. Fujitsu offers a wide range of Energy Star-rated products designed to optimise energy efficiency and reduce environmental impact.

Single room heat pump / air conditioning systems can improve air quality while heating or cooling your home. Many models in the Fujitsu General range come with an Apple-Catechin Filter to eliminate fine dust, mould spores and harmful bacteria that may be harmful to your health. The Apple-Catechin filter is also approved by the National Asthma Council New Zealand’s Sensitive Choice Programme.

Yes, a heat pump / air conditioner can often help you to save money on energy bills. Unlike traditional heating systems that generate heat by burning fuel or using electricity inefficiently, heat pumps / air conditioners move heat from one place to another using refrigerant, making them much more energy-efficient. 

During the winter, a heat pump / air conditioner extracts heat from the outside air and transfers it into your home to keep it warm. During the summer months, it extracts heat from inside your home and transfers it outside, keeping your home cool. Because it moves heat rather than generating it, a heat pump / air conditioner can provide up to three times more heating or cooling than the energy it consumes. This means that small heat pumps / air conditioners may save you money in the long term.

Small air conditioners / heat pumps  are a great investment for many homes for several reasons. They provide comfortable living conditions by regulating indoor temperature and humidity levels, making them particularly worthwhile for those living in hot or cold climates. Heat pumps / air conditioners are also designed to be highly energy efficient, meaning that they often are able to reduce your energy bills over time. Both of these benefits could increase its appeal if you are looking to sell or rent it out.

Additionally, single room heat pumps / air conditioners are relatively easy to install and maintain, making them a convenient and hassle-free option for both homeowners and businesses. 

Considering all of these benefits, small air conditioners / heat pumps  can be a smart investment that can pay off in the long run by providing comfort, energy savings, and overall appeal of your home.
