OLYMPIA SPLENDID

Who Olimpia Splendid is

Olimpia Splendid is an Italian brand well known in air conditioning, valued above all for its no outdoor unit solutions. It is the maker of the famous Unico range, the monobloc air conditioner that mounts on the wall without an outdoor motor. Alongside this specialty, Olimpia Splendid offers a complete range of portable air conditioners and dehumidifiers. In our catalogue you will find models from 5000 to 24000 BTU, with prices starting at around €56. Discover the other options too among the available air conditioners.

Air conditioners with no outdoor unit: the Unico range

Olimpia Splendid's specialty is the no outdoor unit air conditioner. All the technology is contained in a single block mounted on the wall: just two small grilles facing outside are enough, with no motor hung on the wall. It is the ideal choice where you cannot place the outdoor unit, for example in apartment buildings with aesthetic restrictions, in historic centres or in protected buildings. The Unico range cools in summer and, on the heat pump models, heats in winter too.

How many BTU does your room need?

The power is chosen according to the square metres and the insulation of the room. In the Olimpia Splendid catalogue you will find mainly these sizes:

• 5000 and 7000 BTU: small spaces and rooms up to about 18 m².
• 9000 BTU: rooms up to about 25 m², such as bedrooms and studies.
• 12000 BTU: spaces from 25 to 35 m², such as medium-sized living rooms.
• 18000 and 24000 BTU: large rooms, open spaces and big floor areas.

If instead you prefer a traditional model with an outdoor motor, take a look at the wall-mounted monosplit air conditioners and the wall-mounted air conditioners.

Portables and dehumidifiers

Beyond the fixed units, Olimpia Splendid is very well known for its portable air conditioners, handy when you do not want a fixed installation and want to move the cool air from one room to another. The dehumidifiers round out the range, useful for reducing humidity at home, in the cellar or in the laundry room and improving comfort all year round. Discover the selection among the portable air conditioners.

Consumption and energy class

Cooling efficiency is shown by the SEER value, while heating efficiency is shown by the SCOP: the higher these figures, the lower the consumption stays. The inverter heat pump models modulate the power instead of switching on and off continuously, so the temperature stays stable and electricity draw falls. Even on the no outdoor unit models, the energy class is an important factor to assess before buying.

Olimpia Splendid compared with other brands

Olimpia Splendid stands out for its solutions with no outdoor motor and for its portables, an area where it is a leader. If instead you are looking for the classic wall split units with an outdoor unit, you can compare performance and prices with Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric and Samsung. The choice depends on the installation constraints and the kind of comfort you want.

Tax incentives and savings

Buying and installing a heat pump air conditioner may qualify for tax incentives where applicable, such as reduced VAT for renovation work. The conditions depend on the type of work, so it is best to check the current requirements before buying. Discover the current offers too.
