Energy Conservation Grand Prize Winning Room Air Conditioner

In pursuit of energy-saving, air-conditioning systems, Toshiba Group has achieved a stream of innovations. Indeed, in 2007, we won the Energy Conservation Grand Prize for the 10th consecutive year, which brings the total number of times Toshiba has won that prestigious award to 20.

The Daiseikai BDR series of air conditioners - winner of the Director-General of the Agency for Natural Resources and Energy Award of the Energy Conservation Grand Prize (Japan) - is the latest in a distinguished line of groundbreaking air conditioners. Newly developed compressors and inverters, which are vital for improving the energy efficiency of air conditioners, have led to a 25% reduction in power consumption and are the industry's No.1^Note energy-saving performance.

Since the newly developed fully automated cleaning function keeps the interior of the air conditioner spotless (freeing users from this chore), energy saving and powerful operation are maintained for a long time. Thus, the pursuit of convenience yielded benefits in terms of enhanced environmental performance. These air conditioners are superlative products embodying an attractive concept of clean air and environmental consciousness.
