Mitsubishi Electric has launched the new MSZ-RZ R290 – a wall-mounted air inverter heat pump system, designed to deliver heating and cooling, “all year round”.
The MSZ-RZ R290 uses R290, a natural refrigerant with a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of just 0.02, to help homeowners reduce their carbon footprint. The company says it also helps small commercial buildings to future-proof against evolving F-Gas regulations.
The unit will be available in two sizes – 2.5 kW and 3.5 kW – to provide a solution for both residential and light commercial spaces. It is 247mm deep and has noise levels as low as 19 dBA.
The technology can also be operated by homeowners through built-in Wi-Fi and the MELCloud app. This enables users to control their cooling and heating remotely from a smartphone or tablet, with live controls, scheduling and energy monitoring for convenient and efficient climate control.
Jo Lambert, Product Manager for room air conditioning at Mitsubishi Electric said, “In today’s climate-conscious world, the demand for smarter, greener, and more efficient air conditioning is rising fast. The new MSZ-RZ R290 system meets that demand, and brings together the best comfort heating and cooling to building occupants, while using one of the most eco-friendly refrigerants on the market today. It’s a future-proof solution that meets upcoming F-Gas regulations and sustainability goals”.
