Cool, clean, Crystal

MANILA, Philippines - Sometimes it’s hard to figure out what is more un-bearable: the withering heat  which psychotically turns to monsoon rains or the exorbitant electric bills due to the day-into-night airconditioner and electric fan tandem that we’ve had going trying to survive this heat.

Now there’s not much we can do with the blazing temperatures. That’s entirely Mother Nature’s call. Although we do stand a better chance with the electrical bill.

Saying that the airconditioner unit is this season’s most sought-after must is an understatement. If you haven’t had one installed yet, you are most likely considering it. Or, if your old unit hasn’t broken down by this time from overuse, you’re probably considering buying a new one that can provide more power and better efficiency.

Also, why not consider one with energy-saving benefits?

Maybe one with virus-eliminating features as well.

These days, airconditioner units are probably some of the smartest and most jazzed up home appliances in the market. Samsung, for one, has put as much research and technology in their cool units as they have in their TV sets and mobile phone units.

The electricity bill buster

If you’ve been browsing in stores for a new AC, you probably know that the word out on the shelves is the “inverter.” This is the one unit that can give you everything you would want in an airconditioner — and more. Intense cooling power with energy-saving efficiency.

Samsung has the Crystal S-Inverter, now the best and the most recommended model in the brand’s extensive line of residential AC units. This split-type airconditioner is your best bet against rising electrical bills and near-40s temps. Sleek, slim and ultra-silent, the Crystal S-Inverter unit is the best investment you can make in a time that can’t even determine when summer plans to make its exit. The main one reason: it cuts down your aircon bill by 60 percent. And for a family that has had to deal with the heat by keeping ACs turned on 24/7, a this cut is just way too cool to ignore.

You’re probably wondering how. Applied science defines an inverter as a power conversion circuit that electromagnetically regulates the voltage, current and frequency of a device. Essentially, in an airconditioning unit, an inverter provides a steady temperature throughout the usage rather than a constant fluctuation of temperature. So the inverter starts off at a high temperature rate, eventually reaching and maintaining your desired temperature quickly, without all the inefficient on-and-off required by non-inverter ACs. With S-Inverter, you don’t have to worry about shutting the power off to conserve energy and keep your bill down because temperature fluctuations have been eliminated. The inverter produces less vibration too, providing a more peaceful environment.

It’s a bit too technical, so it’s probably easier to remember that an inverter gives you spending leeway to buy yourself a new pair of shoes without having to sacrifice your home’s cooling comforts.

Ion the prize

Another way the Crys-tal S-Inverter proves superiority over other brands is through their Virus Doctor technology, a feature that essentially makes sure the air you breathe within your cool, cozy room is as fresh and clean as can be desired. This Virus Doctor technology involves a Micro Plasma Ion system that remarkably improves indoor air quality by eliminating 99 percent of invisible, health-threatening biological contaminants such as viruses, bacteria and allergens. This system even eliminates the AH1N1 virus and comes with a certification by Professor Sang Heui Seo Suh, a Korean doctor who was the only one certified by the Korean government to certify anti-AH1N1 technologies. With this Virus Doctor technology, the Crystal S-Inverter becomes an air purifier as well as an airconditioner, purifying over 19.16 m3 of space.

And just to throw in more clean air features, Samsung’s inverter unit comes with a filter-cleaning indicator that registers an already-filthy filter. A Clean filter icon on the control panel blinks alerting you for a need to clean your screen.

Samsung’s Crystal S-Inverter also comes with the same features that mark its other exceptional, non-inverter AC units. The Good Sleep II provides a temperature control system and automatic moisture adjustment that ensures a good steady sleep and assures you wake up refreshed the next day. (No need to wake up in the middle of the night to decrease already-freezing temps.

There’s not much we can do with the heat. But there are ways to getting around it without having to suffer much. Or suffer at all. With Samsung’s Crystal S-Inverter, you’re at least assured of keeping your cool.
