Since 1910, Hitachi has been operating as a global industrial corporation. The development of the enterprise is observed from the status of a workshop with a direction in the copper mining industry. For more than a hundred years, hundreds of products based on modern technical developments have been produced under a well-known brand. All products of the manufacturer are designed to meet the needs of consumers in accordance with the trends of the times. The company's management initially preferred to invest financial resources in improving the technologies used in production. The company's policy is always aimed at growth, improvement and future orientation.
Air conditioning systems under the Hitachi brand are the standard of technical devices designed to improve the comfort of living for people around the world. By attracting an impressive flow of investments into the production process, the brand conducts constant research and development work, and also ensures itself positive results from research and development. Household multi split systems are ideal for use in a city apartment and country houses.
Main lines of air conditioners
- elimination of harmful bacteria and viruses that enter the house of their external environment;
- neutralization of unpleasant odors, tobacco smoke and soot from cooking;
- air humidification and ionization.
Air conditioners from Hitachi are distinguished by their ability to automatically clean built-in filters. The technology used to create the equipment completely excludes the further formation of mold and mildew on the internal elements. In the production of components for air conditioning systems, exclusively stainless material is used. A clear advantage of the products of this brand was a significant reduction in energy consumption, which did not affect productivity in any way. Equipment from Hitachi is designed to create a perfectly comfortable atmosphere within any object, ideally fitting into the environment, thanks to its laconic design.
Inverter models
- high energy efficiency;
- powerful built-in compressor;
- smooth flow control;
- reduction of "start-stop" cycles;
- the fan in the indoor unit is treated with silver ions. This protects parts from plaque, dust, while disinfecting the air.
Domestic air conditioners are equipped with a built-in ventilation function - "air exchanger".It is the inverter that ensures the smooth flow of air and the gradual achievement of the desired temperature within the room. The company presents to the attention of buyers several lines of inverter systems: "Eco comfort", "Akebono", "Performance". The "Premium" series is especially popular among consumers, characterized by increased seasonal performance, as well as by the presence of motion sensors.
No less popular are the models of air conditioners with forced ventilation from the Air Exhanger series. The devices operate in a closed cycle, purifying and cooling the air inside the room. The task of the indoor unit is only to remove the generated heat and condensate. The incoming air masses are cleaned through a 3-stage antibacterial filter system.
Rotary compressor models
- color options: shades "silver" and "coffee";
- depending on the model, the capacity ranges from 2, 2 to 6, 35 kW "
- minimum noise level in the indoor unit (from 21 dB);
- built-in filtration system based on Nano titanium technology.
The introduction of the latest nano-developments into production has made it possible to protect the indoor climate from carbon dioxide, formaldehyde, unpleasant odors and street dust penetrating from the external environment. Such a technical feature will allow not only to detain, but also to throw back into the street all the detained pollution.
The disinfection process takes place thanks to UV radiation. The use of germicidal ultraviolet light allowed to achieve an ideal balance. Hitachi developers applied this method by embedding an ultraviolet lamp in the unit. The air passing through the filter is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected using short-wave ultraviolet light.
Industrial air conditioning systems
- cool and heat the air, excluding the direct air flow onto the person;
- digital control servo drive;
- built-in control board and microprocessor program;
- thanks to the drainage pump, the condensate rises to a height of 6 cm.
Such cassette models became the first inverter-type air conditioning systems that allow simultaneous heating in several areas of the facility, thanks to the Multizone technology. The winter set of equipment allows for maintenance of premises at low temperatures down to -20 ° C. All models can be easily distinguished by the presence of the VRV or VRF markings, while the channel VRV installation will allow you to achieve the desired indicators in the microclimate in public facilities due to increased power and optimal performance. The installation of the hitachi “Multizone” air conditioner is carried out directly into the ceiling surface, which makes it almost invisible in space.
Hitachi mobile and window models
- heat the room temperature to the desired mark;
- automatically maintain the microclimate in the rooms at the optimal level;
- turn on and off climatic equipment at a set time due to the work of the built-in timer.
The entire line of window devices is characterized by ease of regulation and speed of installation. The main characteristics of the models are:
- several cooling modes;
- air supply control system;
- automatic distribution due to the smooth movements of the outer grille.
Such devices quite cope with the tasks of split systems, but at the same time they are much more mobile and compact.

Instructions for Hitachi Control Panel and Air Conditioners
The factory packaging of the products includes instructions for hitachi air conditioners with basic information on the rules for using the device. All symbols used are explained in the manual. The remote control for hitachi air conditioner allows you to set the appropriate mode. The included remote also comes with a user manual. From the content of the instructions for air conditioning systems, you can glean information:
- description of a specific installation model;
- rules for connecting / disconnecting equipment, requirements for electrical sources (sockets);
- basic settings and methods of reprogramming modes.
In the operating instructions, you can find the addresses of the location of all service centers for warranty and post-warranty service. Contacting a specialized service will allow you to get a high-quality professional repair of the hitachi air conditioner.
Hitachi air conditioner error codes
Hitachi air conditioner error codes that appear on the display of the unit indicate the cause of the malfunction of the unit. When a malfunction occurs, a signal appears on the timer indicator. The error code of the displayed error is, as a rule, in the range of values from 01 to 13.
The reason for the signal may be as follows:
- malfunctions in the external module;
- overheating of internal coils;
- an error in the connection of the outdoor, indoor unit and board;
- jamming of the outer louver grille;
- interruptions in the speed of rotation of the fan motor;
- the need to charge the device with refrigerant.
User reviews
Based on the reviews of real buyers of Hitachi products, it has obvious "advantages":
- a variety of heating / cooling modes;
- minimum rate of temperature drop, even in large rooms;
- function of ionization and cleaning of the microclimate;
- automatic flow direction;
- touch mode based on built-in motion sensors.
All models, according to buyers, are made of high quality plastic. Air conditioning units fit perfectly into any interior. The intensive heating mode is indispensable in the period of insufficient intensity of central heating during the cold season.
The disadvantages of goods include:
- high cost of products and services;
- frequent refueling of freon at increased loads during the summer heat;
- lack of backlighting on some models.
Regardless of the fact that the prices for Hitachi products are much higher than similar products of other brands, they are still in high demand for the equipment of both residential and office facilities.
