A VERY cool problem to have
<p>We’ve already enjoyed the pleasures of spring, and now as the weather warms up we should be asking ourselves if we need to upgrade our air-conditioners.</p><p>We can all remember how hot it was during the last few summers. So it’s best to be prepared and have a reliable, easy-to-use air-conditioning unit with all the features we need.</p><p>The first place you should look is at the air-conditioning units from Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Air-Conditioners Australia (MHIAA). The air conditioners they produce have won a such a vast range and number of awards that it’s fair to say Mitsubishi Heavy Industries would be the most-awarded air-conditioning company in Australia.</p><p>The fact that Mitsubishi Heavy Industries continue to win the same awards year after year means the company is delivering products the Australian public appreciates and enjoys using.</p><p>Not only have these air-conditioners won a pile of awards, air-conditioning is also a sustainable way to cool down or warm up your house, apartment or office. It’s far more energy efficient to use an air-conditioner for a short time to make your air temperature more comfortable, and other appliances can use up a lot of power and not deliver the results you’re after.</p><p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-54946" src="https://oversixtydev.blob.core.windows.net/media/2022/02/Women-on-Couch-with-Remote-and-MHIAA-Unit_1280.jpg" alt="" width="1280" height="720" /></p><p><strong>Want to know more?</strong></p><p>Mitsubishi Heavy Industries has won an astonishing range of awards – from <a href="https://www.choice.com.au/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CHOICE®</a> awards to <a href="https://mhiaa.com.au/canstar-blue-most-satisfied-customers-air-conditioners-2020-landing-page/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Canstar Blue</a> awards – as well as <a href="https://www.productreview.com.au/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ProductReview</a> awards, <a href="https://www.finder.com.au/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Finder</a> awards and many more.</p><p>Not only has MHIAA won these awards – the company has often won them consecutively for a number of years. For example, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries was found to be the best air conditioner brand by CHOICE® four years in a row.</p><p>When you see how consistently the MHIAA air-conditioners take home these coveted awards, it only goes to show how effectively these air-conditioning systems must be delivering what the Australian public wants and needs.</p><p><strong>Here’s the lowdown on the awards Mitsubishi Heavy Industries </strong><strong>has won and why…</strong></p><p><strong>CHOICE Awards</strong></p><p>Mitsubishi Heavy Industries has been the winner of the best air-conditioner brand by CHOICE for four years in a row – something no other air-conditioning brand has done before. The company is proud of this amazing achievement and the staff pride themselves on delivering award-winning, reliable and high-quality air-conditioners to Aussies. It’s what they do and they simply love doing it!</p><p>For the 2021 Best Brand result, MHIAA once again scored exceptionally well to outperform all other brands with a reliability score of 90% and a satisfaction score of 94% for an overall Best Brand Score of 74%, therefore taking out the award once again in 2021.</p><p>Managing Director for MHIAA, Mr Yuji Ito, said that winning this award again was a significant honour for the company, which is dedicated to the delivery of high-quality products to Australian communities.</p><p>“Here at MHIAA we are extremely honoured to be awarded the Best Brand of Air Conditioners for the fourth year in a row. The acknowledgement from leading consumer group CHOICE® and their independent testing highlights for us the opinion of consumers who are using our products and the way they have highly rated our products,” Mr Ito said.</p><p>“In each of the four years that MHIAA has received this award, it’s become clear that our consumers continue to value the performance of our products as seen through the excellent scores they have awarded us for reliability and satisfaction in each of the tests. We would like to take this opportunity to thank both CHOICE® and their members for this exceptional honour and rating of our products for the fourth year in a row,” he added.</p><p><strong>Canstar Blue Awards</strong></p><p>But that’s not all. Mitsubishi Heavy Industries has also been named by Canstar Blue as having the most satisfied customers of any air-conditioner brand in Australia for the third year in a row.</p><p>In 2019, 2020 and 2021, MHIAA won the <em>Canstar Blue Most Satisfied customer </em>award for the air-conditioner category.
