Review of Dantex air conditioners: error codes, comparison of outdoor mobile models

The Chinese manufacturing brand Dantex entered the Russian climate technology market relatively recently. The product range includes inverter air conditioners, traditional split systems, floor standing equipment and mobile units. It is possible to choose a model in terms of power and set of functions. To do this, you need to familiarize yourself with Dantex products in detail.

Wall models

Modern split-system Dantex is the best choice for a residential or office space. The company has developed several series that differ not only in technical capabilities and performance, but also in design. The defining consumer parameter, prices, was also taken into account.

Overview of the range of wall-mounted household air conditioners by series:

• CORSO NEW... Budget version of the climate system. Features - carbon filter and with silver ions. Turbo mode will cool or heat the room as quickly as possible. Cost - from 14,850 rubles.
• Plasma... The series also belongs to the budget option. Advantage - the set comes with a multifunctional remote control. Price - 16,500 rubles.
• Vega... The advantage is the presence of a plasma generator for enriching oxygen with negative ions. This circuit works for both cooling and heating. Cost - from 15,900 rubles.
• MOON INVERTER... The inverter in the outdoor unit, combined with Eco technology, ensures the maximum level of comfort. Additionally, several air filtration systems have been installed. Price - from 26,700 rubles.
• Vega Multi... Multi split systems are designed to be installed in two separate rooms. The series is no different from the standard Vega model, with the exception of two indoor units. The cost of a multisplit is from 32970 rubles.

Reliable Japanese compressors make it possible to turn on the system to heat in a wide range. This function is convenient during the cold season. It is important to take into account the operating restrictions - the minimum temperature outside.

The advantage is a single control panel for the Dantex air conditioner. It can be purchased separately and adjusted to the operating parameters of a particular model. The controls are intuitive, the settings are simple.

Mobile air conditioners

To create comfortable living conditions in rooms with intermittent stay of people, the manufacturer offers reliable mobile air conditioners. Until recently, the production of precision monoblocks of the "N" series was established. However, they decided to abandon it, since the design did not meet modern requirements. Instead, you can purchase the Soho model

Features:

• minimum power consumption - up to 1.35 kW with a performance of 3.5 kW;
• the blinds automatically close when they stop functioning, which reduces the risk of contamination;
• the buyer can use the restart function;
• simple adjustment of the air conditioner, several operating modes.

It is also possible to disassemble the case to clean the mechanisms from dust and dirt. The condensate is collected in a special container, the indicator indicates the degree of its filling.

The filling rate of the container is minimal. This is ensured by a design feature - the condensate first enters the heat exchanger, evaporates, and the remainder flows into the container.

Floor and ceiling climate systems

To solve non-standard tasks to ensure optimal conditions, a floor or column air conditioner was developed and put into production. Structurally and in terms of characteristics, it is close to the classic split system. The difference lies in the distribution of air flow from the indoor unit. At the same time, the installation of a floor-standing Dantex air conditioner is not very difficult.

Features of work:

• there are two additional air flows - along and down;
• there is a network of grooves on the evaporator tubes, which made it possible to reduce energy costs;
• wide-angle blinds evenly distribute warm and cold currents throughout the room;
• the presence of a night mode of operation - a significant reduction in noise.

This series is also equipped with Japanese-made compressors. This ensures a high degree of system reliability.

Dismantling and transfer of the indoor unit to another room should only be carried out by specialists. It is forbidden to do these activities on your own - there is a high probability of violation of the integrity of the supply and return lines.

Comparison of technical characteristics

In addition to household air conditioners, the company produces industrial and semi-industrial air conditioners - cassette, column and ceiling. For commercial premises, ducted models are the best choice. To select them, it is necessary to carry out complex calculations. Therefore, only home systems will be selected for series comparison.

It is preliminary recommended that you familiarize yourself with the basic selection parameters:

• type of air conditioner - floor-standing, mobile or split-system;
• rated cooling / heating power;
• indicator of consumed electricity;
• functional features - the number of modes, the minimum step of temperature change;
• cost.

The table shows the most popular models.

It is noteworthy that the average noise level of the indoor unit does not exceed 38 dB even at maximum power. Also, in some systems, night mode is provided, during which the performance is below nominal, but the operation of the air conditioner is practically inaudible.

Instructions for the Dantex control panel and air conditioners

To change the operating parameters, several control panels were developed - wired and wireless. The first ones are recommended to be used for control from another room, the second ones - to control the air conditioner directly in the room. At the same time, it remains possible to use two types of remote control simultaneously.

Features of the device:

• switching on and off;
• transition to summer or winter mode;
• setting the degree of cooling or heating;
• changing the fan speed;
• setting a timer;
• maximum operating range - 11 m;
• large LCD display.

Some of the settings can be programmed independently. Sometimes it is recommended to purchase an advanced remote control. This is true for large climate systems.

A wall case can be purchased in addition to the remote control. This will reduce the risk of losing your remote control.

Dantex air conditioner error codes

Each model comes with instructions for Dantex air conditioners. It is necessary not only for correct adjustment, but also for diagnosing faults or malfunctions. The first sign of a problem is the corresponding code on the display screen. According to the manufacturer's instructions, a simple repair of the Dantex air conditioner can be done by hand, but only after prior consultation with the company's specialists.

To reduce the likelihood of breakage, it is recommended to perform the following preventive measures:

• timely cleaning of the air filter;
• visual check of the condition of the outdoor unit;
• when calling a specialist, replenish the system with freon at least once every two years;
• if error codes of Dantex air conditioners appear on the remote control - turn off the device for further troubleshooting.

It is important not to do global repairs yourself. This can not only aggravate the situation, but also serve as a reason to void the manufacturer's warranty.

User reviews

Buyers' opinions on the work of Dantex air conditioners indicate a fairly good build quality and a large range of models. At the same time, no significant shortcomings were identified during operation. The exception was cases of buying a defective air conditioner. But under warranty, it was replaced.

Positive points:

• low noise level;
• affordable cost;
• a special system partially protects the air filter from contamination;
• illumination on the case of the indoor unit.

Disadvantages:

• angular design;
• there is no thermal sensor in the remote control;
• there is no charcoal filter.

Thanks to the assortment, the consumer can choose the optimal model of the climate system, both in terms of power and functionality. These are the main differences between the company's products and competitors.
