The heating season is coming to the heating and cooling market or the blowout

The arrival of the heating season in the HC air-conditioning and refrigeration network has made the air-conditioning and air-conditioning market become the “sweet” of the market. The air-conditioning market has also changed the “shadow” of the past and ushered in the outbreak period. According to the latest monitoring data of the industry online, in September 2016, the domestic household air conditioner production reached 8.946 million units, an increase of 40.6% year-on-year; the sales volume reached 8.755 million units, an increase of 30.1%. From the perspective of consumption, those products with good heating effects are more sought after.

Coincidentally, Matsushita Air Conditioner has conducted a survey and found that Chinese urban consumers are mainly double-employed. They usually turn on air-conditioning after going home from work or before going to bed. They generally hope that the air conditioner will be the fastest when it is turned on. The speed is adjusted to the desired temperature.

Thermal storage technology solves two major bottlenecks

As we all know, when the ordinary air conditioner is used in winter, it is difficult to start normally due to the low outdoor temperature and insufficient heat capacity of the compression mechanism. In addition, when the air conditioner is heated, it needs to be defrosted, which not only consumes a lot of electricity, but also easily causes downtime. This causes the indoor temperature to fluctuate greatly, which seriously affects the comfort. Problems such as low temperature start-up, defrost shutdown, etc. have become the biggest bottleneck in the development of air-conditioning heating.

In order to solve the air conditioning heating problem, Panasonic Air Conditioning Co., Ltd. launched the ENECHARGE regenerative technology, and this year launched the ENECHARGE regenerative products represented by AH Yixun, VE Yijue, VH Zunbo and UH Yihan. The heat storage technology is a technology capable of converting the waste heat which is discarded in the operation of the air conditioner compressor into usable heat energy through the heat storage device, and is used for assisting the defrosting work of the outdoor unit, and has a cold area specification that is not affected by severe cold. Even when the outdoor temperature drops to minus 30 ° C, it starts normally, and it can still be heated during the defrosting process.

It is reported that the air conditioning assisted by thermal storage technology can achieve three major advantages. First, more comfortable. The experimental data shows that the air conditioner assisted by the heat storage technology can achieve continuous heating without stopping the machine, and it only takes 2-3 minutes to complete the defrosting (normal air conditioning defrosting is usually more than 6 minutes), indoor temperature fluctuation < 2 ° C (normal air conditioning room temperature fluctuations 4-6 ° C). Second, it is more energy efficient. Because the heat storage technology uses the waste heat generated by the compressor to recover the defrosting, the defrosting time is greatly reduced, thereby saving energy. Third, it is safer. The regenerative air conditioner does not need electric auxiliary heat in the process of strong heating, and adopts all-metal structure and multiple safety design, which is more firm, reliable and safe in use.

Smoggy weather makes healthy air conditioners warm

The arrival of the heating season has also contributed to the frequent occurrence of smog weather to a certain extent. The deterioration of the environment has caused more and more consumers to pay attention to air quality and health, which brings new business opportunities to the air-conditioning industry. Most enterprises have introduced air-conditioning with air purification, and health functions are expected to become standard equipment for air-conditioning products. . Panasonic air-conditioning technicians told reporters that this year's new products are equipped with dual ion purification technology consisting of nanoe-G nano-ion and nanoe nano-water ions, which can remove PM2.5, dust, bacteria and hidden in the curtains. The adhesion bacteria and odors in the deep fibers of the sofa and the sofa can also effectively remove the formaldehyde that has been plaguing the user for a long time.

From the recent performance of the air-conditioning market, the market demand under the new normal is not completely depressed, but the lack of products and means to effectively impress consumers. This requires air-conditioning enterprises to restore the value of products, starting from the aspects of technology, function, experience, etc., through differentiated products and measures, to meet the needs of users, and actively detonate the market, this is the correct way to open the sustainable development of the entire industry.
