Samsung’s systems are certainly among the best air conditioners on the market. They like not only because they are of good quality and energy-efficient, but also because they have a very modern and pleasant design, which is unusual in a world, that of air conditioners, made of machines that all look the same!
Finding the right system for your needs is not easy! This is why we wrote this little guide that will take you to discover the range of Samsung air conditioners. We will talk about systems for the home and small offices.
The Samsung air conditioner range
First of all, it is better to make a distinction between the multi-split and the mono-split air conditioners. The difference concerns the number of indoor units that the (external) motor can support. We explain better: the mono-split conditioners are composed of an external motor and an internal split, while the multi-split systems are composed of a particular motor that can control 2 or more (up to 9) different units placed inside the house.
Samsung Mono-split wall mounted air conditioners
Samsung offers two different series, the Maldives series, and the AR series: both, ranging from a minimum power of 9,000 btu to a maximum power of 24,000 btu.
Maldives Series
Let’s start from the Maldives series, which has a very interesting feature since it allows you to cancel almost all energy expenditure when the air conditioner is on stand-by. In essence, an aspect often neglected, but very important if you think about how much these machines are ” Ferme “: better not consume when they are inactive!
Energy savings can also be seen in the long use, thanks to the fact that these devices are equipped with a ” smart inverter ” technology that uses the compressor’s ability to reach the temperature in less time, thus limiting energy consumption. It is no coincidence that the energy class to which these air conditioners belong, which is definitely good for this type of appliance.
To ensure clean air, in addition to the ordinary maintenance that the owner is required to do, Samsung has installed a high-density filter that retains many particles harmful to the body and releases more clean air than conventional filters.
In addition, to ensure maximum cleanliness of the device, Maldives air conditioners are equipped with a fan that comes into operation once the machine has been turned off to quickly bring the interior back to room temperature, so as to avoid the formation of condensation and molds and the development of bacteria that are harmful to health.
Like most of the other classic air conditioners, this range also has a dehumidifier, but the good feature is the ” good sleep ” function: during the night, the room temperature is controlled so as to cool the room just in case real need. The air conditioners of the Maldives range are produced with the power of 24,000 BTU, ideal for large environments, from 18,000 BTU, 12,000 BTU and 9,000 BTU for very small areas to be refreshed.
AR Series
Let’s move on to the AR series: in this case, we find the AR6500M and AR9500M air conditioners and the AR7000 and AR9000 air conditioners. The top of the power is found in the AR6500M model with 24,000 btu.
These air conditioners have the splits with a particular triangular shape: thanks to this new design, it is possible to cool the rooms faster with consequent energy saving that the house declares to reach a good 40%. This shape serves to have a larger and wider boar, which produces a greater airflow, and a much larger filter that allows a greater quantity of incoming air.
When switching on, you can choose to set the air conditioner in the Fast Cool mode that allows you to cool the environment in no time: after which the Comfort Cool mode takes over, which automatically maintains the temperature without having to resort to manual adjustments.
Virus Doctor technology
One feature that we like to highlight is the one called Virus Doctor. In essence, it will certainly help all those people suffering from problems related to dust or allergic diseases of the respiratory system. Thanks to the hydrogen and oxygen particles, the harmful substances are dissolved in water and dispersed in the drain. These air conditioners of the AR series can be chosen in the 24,000 BTU, 18,000 BTU, 12,000 BTU and 9,000 BTU versions.
Let’s move on to the two AR7000 and AR9000 models, available in 9,000 BTU and 12,000 BTU versions. Both and in both power versions are characterized by an energy-saving class A+++. In addition to the features that can also be found in previous models, they have the characteristic of being really very quiet (only 16 dB during use).
Samsung Multi-split air conditioning units
In the multi-split range of air conditioners, there are three different machines, all in the AR series: AR6000M in the 7,000 btu and 9,000 BTU versions, the AR7000M in the 9,000 BTU, 12,000 BTU, 18,000 BTU, and 24,000 BTU versions and the AR9000M in the two versions from 9,000 BTU and 12,000 BTU.
Let’s take into consideration the top of the range, the 24,000 BTU AR7000M series air conditioner: these machines are produced in the ” triangular ” shape we have already spoken about for a higher cooling speed compared to the classic models.
The technical characteristics are the same as those of the previous models: there is the filter that captures many pathogenic substances, the two functions Fast Cool and Comfort Cool, the extreme silence (in this version, you reach 24 dB), the ” good sleep ” function, and the Virus Doctor function.
To these, we add the smart Wi-Fi function to control your devices through the dedicated app to download on your smartphone and manage the ignition, temperature, and shutdown at any time you want, even if you are away from home. A piece of really comfortable news, a small revolution!
Samsung wall mounted air conditioners: which model to buy?
Now let’s see some model suggestions. Those looking for an air conditioner with the right quality/price ratio can opt for the Maldives series. Ok, but in what power? If you do not have a great environment to refresh, we recommend the right middle way, that of 12,000 but is more than enough for a studio or a double living room.
For those looking for the top of the range, but in the right measure of power, you can opt for the AR09 series equipped with the convenient smart Wi-Fi technology that allows you to control the device even if you are away from home.
If, on the other hand, you intend to cool a large room, we advise you to make your choice fall on the air conditioner of the AR series, from as much as 24,000 btu of power, but with an energy class A+++. Highly recommended!
Concluding Opinions
As far as we have found, we can say that the Samsung air conditioners are always very reliable and efficient, especially from the energy point of view thanks to the inverter technology.
Without dwelling too much on modern design, which we like, but which does not have to be so decisive in the choice of an air conditioning system, we point out the characteristic ” Virus Doctor “, ideal for those suffering from allergic diseases to the respiratory tract. It is indeed very difficult to find a conditioner that does not exacerbate these diseases and that ” self-cleaning ” avoiding the formation of mold and the stagnation of moisture.
Another feature that, alone, can convince for the purchase of a Samsung, is then the Wi-Fi for remote control of the various units. Last but not least, the wide choice proposed by Samsung on the basis of the cooling capacity, from 9,000 BTU to as much as 24,000 BTU!
