Thinking about getting a new air conditioner to beat the heat? Here are the key things to consider this summer.

1. Energy efficiency

If you haven't upgraded your air conditioner in a while, it's possible it's not as energy efficient as it could be.

This means you're missing out on savings!

The Daikin Alira X offers a range of features and is designed to be energy efficient across various climates.

In fact, you could save up to 40% on your cooling bill*, compared to models with a lower energy star rating.

2. Air purification

With the right air conditioner, you can do more than stay cool. You can keep your air cleaner, too!

Both the Daikin Alira X and Daikin Zena split systems feature air purification systems, allowing you to enjoy fresher and healthier air.

These systems use a clever combination of dust and odour filters with a unique Streamer steriliser.

This catches and destroys pollutants throughout the air in your home.

So you can improve your air quality and help eliminate odour-causing pollutants.

3. Smart controls

These days, there's no more need to handle your air conditioner manually.

Wi-fi compatibility is increasingly common, to work with tools like voice control and smartphone apps.

The Daikin Alira X and Daikin Zena both feature wi-fi compatibility and app-based control.

So you're able to finetune your cooling settings to exactly how you want them from anywhere.

You can set your air conditioner before you leave work and come home to cool comfort!

4. Mould prevention

Mould growth is a real risk for homes in many parts of Australia. So having an air conditioner that can help reduce the risk is key.

The Daikin Alira X features an improved dry mode, utilising a built-in humidity sensor and improved logic to pull excess moisture out of the room.

It even features an automatic mould-proof mode. This dries up the internal components to help stop mould growth inside the unit.

Both the Daikin Alira X and Daikin Zena include Streamer Technology to help neutralise mould spores.


5. Quiet mode

It's no secret air conditioners can be noisy. But the good news is that you can stay cool without ruining the peace and quiet.

The Daikin Alira X and Daikin Zena both have a dedicated quiet mode that allows them to operate at a whisper-quiet 19dBA.

To add to the quietness, the outdoor unit also features a clever quiet mode that automatically reduces the outdoor noise levels without sacrificing comfort.

It's a perfect overnight combination, helping you stay cool through hot summer evenings whilst minimising noise.
