Comparison of the characteristics of popular models
A complete analysis of the manufacturer’s product line should begin with a study of the technical characteristics of specific models. Most of the information is in the user manual and on the official website. But first you should determine the basic requirements for the climate device.
They are as follows:
- Nominal cooling or heating output.Depends on the volume of the room, although manufacturers indicate the area with a standard ceiling height of 2.7 m.
- Type - wall, mobile or special. The latter include cassette, floor-ceiling and duct devices.
- Required functionality. Frequent consumer conditions are advanced timer settings, smooth adjustment of the cooling / heating intensity, automatic start and self-regulation.
- Performance. Often this is the minimum noise level of the indoor unit, work at sub-zero temperatures in the street, the complexity of the repair and the degree of remoteness of the branded service center.
- Cost. This indicator should not be a determining factor, but it depends on the planned budget.
The table shows the main technical characteristics of the most popular models of climatic equipment of this brand.

| Power consumption | 1,029 | 0,63 | 0,81 |
| Air performance | 500 | 400 | 430 |
| Noise level | 53 | 27 | 29 |
| Drainage | 0,8 | 0,8 | 0,8 |
| Refrigerant mass | 0,65 | 0,45 | 0,51 |

Manual for control panel and air conditioner Olmo
Until recently, in the configuration for household models, an original, but morally outdated remote control was offered. The LCD was positioned vertically, opposite a number of diggers. To enable a certain function, it was necessary to find the corresponding symbol on the indicator, which was inconvenient. Instead, it offers a new premium remote for the air conditioner. It is attached with all models of the described household series.
Features of use and management:
- Highlighting individual buttons for basic functions. In addition to them, it is possible to fine-tune the work.
- Large LCD display. All indicators are clearly visible on it, there are no problems with reading data.
- Color indication of buttons and their remoteness from each other. This allows you to change the modes almost by touch.
- The energy resource of the work of the batteries has been increased - the energy consumption is minimal.
You should also pay attention to the material of manufacture. Thick-walled plastic was used to reduce the chance of accidentally damaging the case. Additionally, a temperature sensor is installed in the device, due to which the cooling intensity is set depending on the user's location in the room.
The operating recommendations are standard - periodic cleaning of the air filter is necessary, once every two years comprehensive maintenance, checking the level of refrigerant or its replacement. In the latter case, it is necessary to use freon recommended by the manufacturer.
