Answer:
Yes, Fujitsu mini-split systems come pre-charged with refrigerant. In our experience, this feature simplifies the installation process, as the outdoor units are pre-charged with enough refrigerant to accommodate standard line lengths. Our customers often appreciate this convenience, as it reduces installation time and potential complications.
More On Fujitsu Mini Splits Coming Pre-Charged with Refrigerant:
Fujitsu’s mini-split systems are designed with user-friendly installation in mind. The pre-charged outdoor units contain R-410A refrigerant, which is sufficient for standard piping lengths. This means that, under typical installation conditions, additional refrigerant charging is unnecessary, streamlining the setup process. However, it’s important to note that if the installation requires longer piping than the standard length, additional refrigerant may be needed to ensure optimal system performance. We always recommend consulting with a professional HVAC installer to assess the specific requirements of your setup.
Moreover, Fujitsu is transitioning to the more environmentally friendly R-32 refrigerant for its next generation of AIRSTAGE ductless products, replacing R-410A. R-32 has a lower global warming potential and offers improved energy efficiency. This change reflects Fujitsu’s commitment to sustainability and providing advanced solutions to its customers.
