Question:

What is the so-called aluminum tube in the air conditioner?

What are the so-called "aluminum tubes" and "copper aluminum tubes" in air conditioners? Is it the pipe in the outer machine, or the connecting pipe between the outside machine and the inner machine?What materials are used in general external machines? For example, Panasonic, Midea, GREE, Haier, Changhong, CHIGO, Galanz, what are these materials used?

Answer:

Said is the internal and external machine connecting pipe, in the current, all the air conditioning and internal and external machines are also used in copper pipe, but there are some brands of internal and external machine connecting pipe into aluminum tube
Hello! Refers to the internal air conditioner and the external machine connecting pipe, the middle of the connecting pipe is an aluminum tube, both ends are made of copper, also known as the aluminum plastic pipe. At present, only GREE and the United States all use pure copper connection tube, other brands only high-end machine only use pure copper connection tube, the ordinary model is the aluminum plastic tube. I hope my answer can help you!
The so-called "aluminum tube" in the air conditioner refers to the inner and outer parts of the air conditioner. The connecting pipe part may be made of aluminium tube, that is, the copper aluminum tube. And there are very other manufacturers using aluminum tubes on the evaporator or condenser.In the air-conditioning on the implementation of "aluminum instead of copper", there have been countless tests, the conclusion proved to be failure, it is impossible, is not reliable. In the air conditioning on aluminum and copper, can save the cost to a certain extent, reduce the price of air conditioner; however, all of this must be based on the safe operation of air conditioning, the service life of the air conditioner is not affected as the premise, without this premise, aluminum and copper also have no meaning.So far, no air-conditioning manufacturer's "aluminum bronze" project is successful; even more incredible is that there are still new manufacturers continue to join the promotion of this project.Aluminum and copper project, at the earliest in about 18 years ago, from the beginning of the refrigerator manufacturers, the refrigerator using R12 as refrigerant, and the whole system pressure is low, the particularity and the refrigerator pipeline application, does have a certain application in the refrigerator; from about 12 years ago at the beginning of each air conditioner to promote manufacturers Aluminum and copper in air conditioning project.
