Current cost of living expenses are hard to ignore for many Australian households who are feeling unusually financially stretched.

Whether you're chilled to the bone in winter, sweltering in the summer heat or anything in between, managing expenses while maintaining home comfort can be a delicate balance.

Using traditional heating and cooling methods, such as electric heaters and fans, can see cost of living expenses quickly spiral out of control thanks to inefficient energy consumption.

Fujitsu General offers a wide range of cost effective and energy efficient air conditioners that are a practical long-term investment, ensuring you don’t have to break the bank to find the perfect balance of comfort and efficiency Fujitsu General air conditioners can be a reliable partner for saving energy with numerous features included in our Lifestyle range.

Key Features That Make Fujitsu General Air Conditioners  Cost-Efficient

One of the best ways to make positive cost of living adjustments is to reduce the amount of energy your household uses. If you have recently installed a Fujitsu General single-room ac, floor-mounted aircon or smart ducted air conditioner in your home, there are a number of efficiency features that you may not know about. If set up and used regularly, these programs have the potential to significantly reduce energy usage and expenses, while improving comfort in your home.

Timers

Fujitsu General wall mounted air conditioners, like the Lifestyle Range, come equipped with versatile timer modes, enabling users to schedule operations according to their comfort needs.

Allowing you to set your unit to turn on at a specific time or for a specific time period enables you to program your air conditioner for a variety of scenarios. Whether it’s to turn on the unit right before you’re due to arrive home, or to run it for another 30 mins after you go to bed, there are a range of options to ensure energy usage is optimised by time.

Economy Mode

Economy mode prioritises energy efficiency without compromising comfort. By adjusting the temperature by 1°C at a time as needed, it reduces the power drawn by the compressor and results in noticeable reductions in energy consumption.

Human Sensor

The human sensor, available in selected models, is a testament to working smarter not harder, ensuring positive cost of living adjustments are made without sacrificing comfort. By detecting movement within a room, the unit can adjust operations to minimise energy wastage.

If no movement has been detected after 20 minutes, the unit will automatically switch to its energy-saving operation mode and modify the temperature accordingly. Once it detects movement again, it will revert back to its previous settings.

Wi-Fi Controls

Smart technology also sees Wi-Fi control options act as the ultimate tool for convenience and efficiency. From scheduling operations, to climate-reactive adjustments and smart automation, these features put control right at your fingertips, ensuring optimal performance with minimal effort. The resulting energy savings bring a welcome reduction in cost of living expenses, ensuring your family can remain comfortable all-year-round.

Filter Sign

Something that may often slip our minds is the fact that a clean unit is required to produce the safest and most efficient environment.

Filter signs ensure regular maintenance of your unit, with the filter sign acting as a key reminder to clean your unit's air filters, thereby ensuring that the system is operating at peak efficiency. Learn more.

Zone Control

Exclusive to ducted systems, whole-home comfort can be elevated by the Zone Control function. This optional feature allows the home to be divided into separate zones. Individual users can tailor settings to certain areas, with precise control over airflow throughout the house. You can improve energy efficiency by choosing which zones are in operation at any one time, directing airflow to selected rooms throughout the day.

Further comfort and energy efficient control is enabled with the use of the anywAiR technology ducted zone controller, which uses Wi-Fi and the anywAiR app to enable you to control various functions of your air conditioner. anywAiR technology allows you to program various scenarios, as well as vary the air flow and temperature to each room if temperature sensors are installed in each zone.
