With Panasonic’s innovative range of domestic air-to-air heat pumps, it is possible to connect up to five different rooms with a single outdoor unit using the Free Multi system for users’ personal comfort. Space-saving and energy efficient, most combinations also meet the recent ErP Directive, having a high SEER and SCOP value (A++/A+ depending on model).
Key Features
- Up to 5 indoor units on only 1 outdoor unit
- NEW UNIT: Small capacity indoor unit : 1.6kW, ideal for well insulated houses or smaller rooms
- High capacity even at -15 degrees on heating mode
- Cooling mode up to -10 degrees. Ideal for meeting rooms where cooling is needed all year round
- High performance with low energy consumption
- Super quiet indoor units and outdoor units
- Full line up of connectivity (through Wi-Fi or BMS connections)
- Possibility to block the unit on heating only mode with an additional PCB. (only for wall mounted units)
- New Nanoe-G air purifier filter system on wall mounted units
- Large range of indoor units
Flexible Choice
A truly flexible solution, using Free Multi means it is possible to provide air conditioning for 2, 3, 4 or 5 rooms with just one, single outdoor unit. By specifying Panasonic’s Free Multi range, clients benefit from saving space and at the same time also benefit from better energy efficiency than traditional 1x1 systems which in some cases, can be up to 30%.

The wide range of indoor units is an impressive line-up; choose from wall mounted (available in white and silver finishes), hide-away, cassette (600mm x 600mm), ceiling mounted or floor-standing options.
These wall-mounted Etherea units have also recently won the prestigious iF Design Award, which celebrates product design excellence. Judged on everything from appearance and functionality, through to the environmental impact of the product, awards are only given to those products that demonstrate their innovative design. The Free Multi Etherea indoor wall-mounted units won thanks to its highly intelligent functionality.

Impressive Performance
Free Multi units have impressive performance too, achieving extremely high capacity at outdoor temperatures ranging from -15⁰C in heating mode to -10⁰C in cooling mode.
New for 2013, Panasonic have now introduced a new 1.6kW wall mounted unit further increasing the flexibility of the free multi range. This is ideal for usage on very well insulated houses and in small offices. Also, the Free Multi outdoor units are able to modulate the compressor to an extremely low frequency which provides high savings when there is no need of full capacity. Marc Diaz, Country Manager of Panasonic Heating & Cooling UK explains: “The flexibility in specifying solutions from the Panasonic range of air-to-air heat pumps means that consumers can benefit whatever the type of property they live in – and benefit from impressive energy savings too. The outdoor units are able to modulate capacity to adapt production to meet the required demand of the installed indoor units. For example the CU-3E18PBE, which has a nominal capacity of 5.2kW, can modulate from 1.80kW to 7.30kW with minimal consumption thus saving energy and enhancing energy performance. In fact, thanks to this modulation, the 1.8kW unit has minimal energy consumption of only 0.36kW! Panasonic’s DC inverter system provides precise temperature control with a low start-up current. The twin rotary compressor, with its perfect balancing, ensures functional reliability and efficiency. This also contributes to increased comfort, rapid cooling and heating and extremely quiet operation.
