What "healthy functions" should a "healthy air conditioner" have?

In the hot summer, when consumers buy air conditioners, in addition to paying attention to the basic temperature adjustment function, some people also pay attention to products with additional health concepts and functions

The 15 samples of this comparison test are all wall-mounted air conditioners, involving 13 brands, and the purchase price ranges from more than 2,000 yuan to 8,000 yuan per unit

The air conditioner self-cleaning function can better clean the air conditioner evaporator that is not easy to wipe

Among the 15 prototypes, 4 claim to have air purification function

Whether the air blown by the air conditioner is comfortable is a general concern of consumers

This test found that the instructions of some air conditioner samples are too simple and general, especially in terms of how to use the health functions they claim, which is not conducive to the correct use of consumers

The relevant person in charge of the China Consumers Association said that it is recommended that relevant industry associations and standards authorities promote the introduction of relevant standards for the health functions of air-conditioning products as soon as possible
