One of the largest and most reliable brands on the market; Fujitsu have maintained their highly respected reputation for many years now through the introduction of robustly-built, expertly designed products that are capable of servicing a wide variety of customer needs. Therefore, we thought we would have our team of expert air conditioner analysts take a quick look at the Fujitsu AOU24RLXFW single zone split system air conditioner. Check out our full room air conditioner review below for more information.

Fujitsu AOU24RLXFW Air Conditioner

Efficient, convenient, and multi-functional, if you’re in the market for a unit that will go the extra mile in almost all regards, we suggest checking out the Fujitsu AOU24RLXFW. Capable of providing both cooling and heating (27,600 heating BTU), this beast of a unit will get the job done quietly while introducing you to in-built convenient features that you didn’t even realize you wanted. Continue reading below for all the details.

Cooling Performance

Providing up to 24,000 BTUs of cooling power, the Fujitsu AOU24RLXFW is not a unit to consider lightly. With a high level of sheer power, this 1-zone split system is easily capable of servicing a large residential living space.

Efficiency & Certifications

The Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) is used as a common measurement of efficiency across the industry. Obtained through vigorous testing in a controlled environment, generally speaking the higher this score, the more efficient the product. Fortunately, the Fujitsu AOU24RLXFW also comes Energy Star Certified, which stands as a further guarantee of efficient performance. This certification is awarded to units that adhere to a strict set of regulations set out by the Environmental Protection Agency, thus guaranteeing their merit when it comes to saving you money on your energy bills.

Convenience

If there’s one notable aspect of this unit’s design, it’s that the Fujitsu AOU24RLXFW is designed for convenience. Boasting both a wireless remote control and 24-hour programmable timer, this unit will function exactly how the user desires it to, depending on how well they utilise the features available. Additionally, a number of convenient functional modes are also included in the design of this device, including auto mode, dry mode, sleep mode, and an auto restart capability. In addition to enjoying a wide range of convenient features, this unit’s auto mode is especially effective, as the Fujitsu AOU24RLXFW is also capable of providing heating to an environment. Auto changeover capability means that this unit can lower or raise the temperature of your living space, effectively maintaining comfortable conditions for you and your loved ones. We also greatly admired the inclusion of a sleep mode in this unit,  which allows a unit to function at a decreased capacity, cutting costs on energy bills, while delivering a quieter performance while you rest.

Design

With a noise level of 55 dB, the Fujitsu AOU24RLXFW falls significantly below the level of an average human conversation, which would usually measure at about 60dB. Additionally, with automatically oscillating air louvers, this unit is perfect for delivering an even distribution of air throughout any large residential setting. Finally, to end our overview of this unit’s design, this unit’s final design also includes a deodorizing filter, which is capable of effectively removing airborne particulates, and unpleasant odours. Note however, that this unit is by no means a replacement for an air purifier.

As this unit’s total shipping weight comes in at a whopping 166lbs, we insist that our readers hire an experienced and competent contractor when installing or transporting this unit.

Help & Support

For more information regarding the company’s specific warranty policies, we recommend contacting their experienced customer service team, who are contactable via fax, email, or telephone. Furthermore, if speaking to a representative is not for you, Fujitsu supply a number of useful resources online, such as FAQs, troubleshooters, and downloadable user documents.

Verdict

The Fujitsu AOU24RLXFW is one impressive unit. It is unfortunately rare that we come across a product as refined and multi-functional as this. Excelling at its primary function of temperature regulation, usage of this unit is only made more enjoyable with the addition of minor bonuses such as its dehumidifying and air purifying abilities. Furthermore, with the inclusion of such a wide range of convenient modes and features, we simply cannot fault this unit for its design. Additionally, the Fujitsu AOU24RLXFW also performs to a relatively high level of efficiency, which means it shouldn’t cost the user an extraordinary amount to operate. However, with regard to Fujitsu’s customer service network, we must admit that we felt slightly underwhelmed by the omission of a live chat feature, although this is possibly our only issue with this unit, if it can even be related to the unit itself. In summary, if your living space warrants the installation of a unit as powerful as this, we would strongly recommend considering the Fujitsu AOU24RLXFW for installation by a seasoned and competent professional.
