[Asia Economy Reporter Jeong Hyunjin] Samsung Electronics announced on the 25th that it will launch the 'Window Fit,' a window-type air conditioner with no installation environment restrictions. This product is designed to meet the needs of consumers who want to install air conditioners in each room as the time spent at home has increased recently due to remote work and online classes.

The Samsung Window Fit is an all-in-one air conditioner that combines the outdoor and indoor units, and can be installed anywhere there is a window. It only requires attaching the dedicated frame and air conditioner to the window, so there is no separate installation process. It can also be detached if previous installation is needed or during seasons when the air conditioner is not in use. This product applies a method that evaporates moisture generated during the heat exchange process through a fan, eliminating the need for a separate drainage pipe.

The Samsung Window Fit features a 'dual air flap' that can switch in four directions?left, right, center, and swing?allowing cool air to reach every corner. Additionally, the digital inverter compressor is equipped with a 'twin inverter,' where two cylinders rotate to reduce vibration and noise, and a 'twin-tube muffler' that uses two tubes to decrease refrigerant friction noise. As a result, when used in low-noise mode, it operates at about 40 dB, significantly reducing noise, and saves up to 70% of power consumption compared to normal cooling mode.

The Samsung Window Fit is available in five Bespoke colors: Green, Blue, Beige, Gray, and Pink, and the panels can be replaced if needed. It also includes 'Easy Care,' a feature highly praised in Samsung Wind-Free air conditioners, which automatically dries internal moisture every time the air conditioner is turned off and has an easily detachable and washable filter.

This product has a top energy efficiency rating of Grade 1, and the digital inverter motor and digital inverter compressor applied to the product come with a 'lifetime warranty' service, allowing consumers to receive free repairs or part replacements if a malfunction occurs during the product's use. The retail price is 849,000 KRW.

Yang Hyesoon, Executive Director of Samsung Electronics' Home Appliance Business Division, said, "Although demand for installing air conditioners in each room has surged recently, consumers have experienced inconvenience due to installation environment restrictions, so we introduced the Window Fit." She added, "We will continue to introduce new products that satisfy various consumer demands."
