In today’s world of scorching summers and freezing winters, conventional air conditioners—despite their ubiquity—remain plagued by two persistent user pain points: high energy consumption and poor comfort. During cooling, direct cold drafts cause discomfort; during heating, uneven temperatures often leave occupants feeling “hot-headed and cold-footed.” Add to that frequent cycling and plummeting efficiency in extreme weather, and your electricity bill quickly becomes a source of stress.
To tackle these long-standing industry challenges, huawa has innovatively launched the Coupled Radiant Air Conditioning System (ABC Air Conditioner)—a solution built around the synergy of an air conditioner and an Air Conditioner Companion. This dual-module architecture redefines indoor climate control for both residential and commercial spaces.
1. Not Just Stacking Systems—Intelligent Coupling
huawa’s approach isn’t about mechanically combining an air conditioner with underfloor heating or cooling panels. Instead, it leverages a core add-on device called the “Air Conditioner Companion” to achieve deep integration with standard split-system air conditioners.
- The air conditioner handles rapid air temperature adjustments through efficient convective heat exchange.
- The Air Conditioner Companion acts as a “thermal energy dispatcher,” redirecting part of the cooling or heating capacity to a network of PE pipes embedded in the floor, enabling gentle, uniform radiant cooling or heating.
Working together, they preserve the fast response of traditional AC while adding the silent, draft-free, and evenly distributed comfort of radiant systems—delivering a balanced experience that’s “quick without dryness, warm without stuffiness.”
2. How Does the Air Conditioner Companion Boost Efficiency?
In conventional systems, refrigerant flow follows a fixed path, limiting heat exchange efficiency to a single evaporator or condenser. huawa’s Air Conditioner Companion smartly introduces a secondary heat exchange stage—optimizing refrigerant state dynamically without modifying the main unit:
- In heating mode, high-temperature refrigerant first passes through the Air Conditioner Companion, releasing part of its heat to the radiant floor system before entering the indoor unit for a second round of heat rejection. This process significantly increases refrigerant subcooling, enhancing low-temperature heating stability and allowing each unit of refrigerant to carry more usable heat—resulting in a noticeably higher COP (Coefficient of Performance).
- In cooling mode, after absorbing heat in the indoor unit, the refrigerant doesn’t return directly to the compressor. Instead, it flows into the Air Conditioner Companion, using residual cooling capacity to drive radiant floor cooling. This expands the effective evaporation area and ensures the returning gas maintains an optimal superheat level—protecting the compressor while preventing energy waste.
The entire process is managed by an intelligent control module inside the Air Conditioner Companion, which continuously monitors water temperature, refrigerant pressure, and flow rate. Using PID algorithms, it precisely adjusts pump speed to allocate thermal energy exactly where and when it’s needed—no excess, no shortage.
3. User Benefits: Measurable Savings, Tangible Comfort
Real-world applications show that spaces equipped with huawa’s Coupled Radiant Air Conditioning System achieve significant advantages over conventional setups:
- 15–25% improvement in annual energy efficiency
- Over 50% reduction in vertical temperature differences, eliminating “hot head, cold feet”
- No direct airflow, making it ideal for children, seniors, and sensitive individuals
- Stable operation even in extreme cold or heat, without needing electric auxiliary heating
Best of all, the system integrates seamlessly with mainstream split-type air conditioners. Upgrading simply requires adding the Air Conditioner Companion and installing the radiant floor piping—offering a cost-effective retrofit with minimal construction time.
4. Setting a New Standard for Future Comfort
At huawa, we believe true intelligent climate control shouldn’t just “cool or heat”—it should “understand human needs.” By enabling seamless collaboration between the air conditioner and the Air Conditioner Companion, we’ve not only solved the twin plagues of high energy use and poor comfort but also taken a crucial step toward the vision of a “Five-Constant Healthy Home”—constant temperature, humidity, fresh air, cleanliness, and quietness.
The future is here—and comfort no longer requires compromise. Choose huawa’s Coupled Radiant Air Conditioning System, where every breath feels gentle, and every kilowatt-hour counts.
