What Klimaire
brings you …

Ductless Mini-Split systems are one of the fastest growing products in the US and popularity is rapidly increasing. They allow air
conditioning and heating systems to be added quickly, economically and conveniently, often for some applications where installing comfort
systems didn't seem possible or practical.

Flexibility is the main driver of their popularity. Klimaire ductless systems are simple, reliable, easy to install, and extremely affordable.
Klimaire slim single zone and multi zone ductless systems offer built-in solutions with duct free technology benefits. These systems are
integrated with innovative inverter technology providing individual comfort and control. With our KSIX series we are committed to bring our
valued customers additional savings with a unit almost ready to install, easily and quickly, with minimum HVAC technician assistance.

highest standards of quality and reliability with ISO 9001 and ISO 14001a. Our products have proven their
endurance and resiliency over time, operating in 70 different countries. All products are ETL certified and AHRI
registered. Klimaire products exceed industry standards for energy efficiency and employ innovative
technology to achieve the highest customer satisfaction. Since our goal is to achieve maximum customer
satisfaction, we continuously seek to achieve higher performance levels in the design phase for all future units.

How much do you spend for
heating & cooling your home?

The US Department of Energy (DOE) says that as much as half of
the energy used in your home goes to heating and cooling. So
making smart decisions about your home's heating, ventilating, and
air conditioning (HVAC) system can have a big effect on your utility

Klimaire Invertech DC Inverter - driven ductless air conditioners and
heat pumps can save you up to 33% on your power utility bill when compared with
room air conditioners or standard efficiency 10 SEER ductless systems.
Ductless Invertech units are practical to install and preferred over traditional ducted central units.
Total savings can reach up to 49% when heat pump technology is combined with an inverter system.

What is Klimaire DC Inverter?

Klimaire DC Inverter Air Conditioners are the ultimate cooling and heating technology of the HVAC field. They are called “DC inverter” because
the alternative current (AC) is converted to Direct Current (DC) then, direct current inverted back to Alternative current with desired frequency.
As known, the current supplied through the wall outlet has fixed frequency which is 60 Hertz. Different frequencies supplied to the compressor
will result different running speeds of the compressor. Klimaire Inverter control systems use Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM) that is the most
advanced and energy efficient method of inverting the current. DC Inverter air conditioners bear special compressors that their speed could be
changed by increasing or decreasing the frequency of the supplied power.
Therefore, unlike conventional split Air Contioners/Heat Pumps which cycle between on and off repeatedly, the DC Inverter control system will
monitor the room temperature and adjust the compressor speed automatically. Conventional compressors turn on and off to maintain the room
temperature at desired level. This will result compressor to draw tremendous energy each time it starts up. This will also reduce the life-span of

the compressor and other components that are turning on
and off.
Once a conventional system is running, it runs at its
maximum speed, consuming the maximum amount of
energy in order to produce the maximum of cooling or
heating to maintain the desired temperature. The system
will then cycle between on and off in an effort to maintain this
temperature. When a DC Inverter compressor initially
starts up, it runs with a higher speed to bring the room
temperature to desired level rapidly, Once the set
temperature is reached, it slows down and adjust its
capacity just to counter the heat loss or heat gain of the
building. By this way it will maintain a constant temperature.

Ducted vs Ductless Systems

According To the US Department of Energy (energy.gov) “Since mini splits have no ducts ,they avoid the energy losses
associated with ductwork of central forced air systems. Duct losses can account for more than 30% of energy consumption
for space conditioning especially if the ducts are in an unconditioned space such as attic.”

You´ll save energy every time you use a Klimaire Ductless System.
Air ducts from a central forced air system can lose energy more than 30%, with air leakage especially
if the ducts run through unconditioned areas like attics or basements.
Since Klimaire Ductless Systems have no ducts, they avoid that energy loss completely,
reducing your impact on the environment and lowering your energy costs.
Only one temperature control for all the zones, conflicting with individual comfort preferences

Ductless Mini-split

Experience true individual comfort. Ductless Mini-Split systems
are the perfect solution to a variety of installation challenges.
Ductless Mini-Split units eliminate the use of ductwork, allowing
installers the ability to place these units in locations that were
previously considered impractical or impossible due to
additional ducting and cost associated with installing a regular
unit. Ductless Mini-Splits consist of two parts, an outdoor unit
and an indoor unit, similar to regular split units, but much
smaller in size. The outdoor and indoor units are connected to
each other by refrigerant and electrical lines. They run together
with a condensate drain line through a small hole in an exterior
wall, generally 3 inch in diameter or less. In addition to
eliminating the need for ducting, another great advantage of
Ductless Mini-Split systems is true zone control. The indoor fan
coil unit is dedicated to the room being conditioned, allowing a
temperature and humidity level to be kept in a specific room,
separate from the rest of the house or building.
