West conditioners overview: error codes, inverter and multisplit systems

TM West is the property of Ost-West. The start of the organization’s activities took place in 1994 and consisted in the supply of devices from world famous manufacturers to the domestic market of Ukraine in large quantities. Today, West produces a wide range of household appliances under its own brand, including modern household split-systems.

Thanks to a competent marketing strategy and a detailed study of consumer demand, the manufacturer managed to combine a combination of two main indicators in its products: price and quality. West also continues to supply devices and other brands, allowing consumers to buy reliable products at affordable prices. The company divided the production of goods in three directions:

  • budget line of devices;
  • Popular models in especially high demand;
  • hi-class equipment using high technology.

Over time, it was possible to expand the range of direct and climate technology. Among the models of West air conditioners, you can find both devices with a standard set of functions, and ultramodern installations with advanced functionality.

Main product lines

The manufacturer takes into account the various requirements presented by customers to the equipment, therefore, it offers several options for possible climatic equipment:

  1. Standard household air conditioners with wall installation and basic features.
  2. Multifunctional multisplit equipped with a number of additional elements.
  3. Compact mobile monoblocks.

The manufacturing company took care of providing customers with a choice by combining a number of models into separate series of products. Thus, if there is no need to achieve certain parameters when creating a microclimate in a room, then it is quite possible to do with a simple device, namely a mobile all-in-one, especially since installing an air conditioner in this case simply will not be needed.

Wall mounted air conditioners

A set of such climatic equipment usually consists of two types of units and a remote control device. Allows you to achieve the required temperature in the room by cooling or heating. It features the following characteristics:

  • average power of devices;
  • lack of additional filters and air enrichment systems;
  • simple setup;
  • basic set of necessary operating modes.

Such air conditioners are preferred by most ordinary customers who do not want to overpay for either a well-promoted brand or for using the latest technological developments in production. The simplified internal arrangement of the climate system does not preclude equipping the device with a cleaning filter that effectively traps dust, harmful impurities and other contaminants.

Especially loved by customers are models of air conditioners of the Eco series. They differ noticeably less power consumption when working in any mode and the lack of fresh air mode. But the rest do not get tired of more expensive counterparts: the rotary mechanism of the front grille of the blinds, remembering the settings, several fan speeds.

High-tech multisplit

Since the company constantly monitors the situation on the foreign and domestic market of household appliances, this allows you to update the product line, thereby transferring some models from premium products - class to a more acceptable category.The vacant niche of goods is filled with updated lines, which incorporate the most modern achievements in the field of climate technology.

This line is significantly superior to its counterparts in cost, but at the same time it is almost identical in its technical characteristics to expensive promoted brands. Simply put, when purchasing West products, the buyer receives the full range of functions of a modern multisplit, but at a more affordable price.

Innovative multisplit from West differ:

  • increased power of equipment;
  • reduced noise level during system operation in any of the modes;
  • many options for settings;
  • sleek design and durable body materials.

The climate system is equipped with a deodorizing filter, which copes with the task not only to clean the air, but also to eliminate unpleasant odors.

Portable climate monoblocks

It copes with the task of cooling the air in the room. It is equipped with:

  • remote control of the process of operation and adjustment of the device;
  • a timer for turning on and off the device without user intervention;
  • three levels of fan rotation, which allows you to set the required air flow rate.

Mobile air conditioners are extremely easy to use and absolutely do not require installation work. The presence of rotating wheels on the bottom of the case allows you to move it not only within the same room, but throughout the entire serviced room (apartment, house, office, office building).

Instructions for the remote control and air conditioners West

For several models of West air conditioners, as a rule, one instruction is provided. The manufacturer strongly recommends that you read this user manual before using the device. The brochure provides all the necessary information regarding the proper use of split systems:

  • security measures when connecting and installing multisplit;
  • power requirements
  • invalid actions during system operation;
  • a detailed description of each of the elements of the system, as well as a diagram of the internal structure of the blocks.

In the same instructions, you can familiarize yourself with all the conventions for the remote control from the West air conditioner. It also indicates the reasons why the device may not respond to the signal supplied from the device. Using the remote control allows you to quickly reconfigure the system or change the already installed mode.

Error codes for air conditioners West

Almost all models of split systems are equipped with a self-diagnosis function, designed to detect and determine the malfunction that has occurred. Error codes displayed on the design display indicate what caused the breakdown (malfunction). This is usually:

  • clogged filters;
  • refrigerant leak;
  • operation of the device at an external temperature below -10-12 ° C;
  • sudden power surge and so on.

The error code will help you to disconnect the device from the power in time and either fix the malfunction yourself (filter cleaning) or contact the service center.

User reviews

The main advantages of the West split systems that customers indicate in their reviews are their availability and ease of use. The following recommendations will help significantly extend the life of the equipment and avoid expensive repairs in a specialized center:

  • Avoid getting foreign objects into the blocks;
  • flush internal filters at least 1 time in 3 weeks;
  • Do not use the air conditioner at negative air temperatures (below -12 ° C).

It is also recommended that at least once a year check the pressure in the system and refill freon (depending on the intensity of use).
