As the mercury rises, homeowners may be wondering how to ensure their homes stay cool from the heat, while keeping electricity bills low.
One way to do this is by looking out for air-conditioners that bear a five-tick rating from the National Environment Agency. Five-tick appliances are those that are the most energy-efficient and, as such, generate more cost savings for the consumer.
As one of the leading air-conditioning brands in Singapore, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) launched its new Rocket Series (YYS model) air-conditioner in April this year. Exclusively distributed by KM Marketing, the Rocket Series (YYS model) air-conditioner is a five-tick energy-efficient model that comes with significant upgrades to an already well-trusted line of products from its Rocket series.
An energy-efficient source
One enhancement to the new model is the reinforced outdoor unit which compresses warm, humid air into cool, dry air channeled indoors. The optimally strengthened outdoor unit top plate offers superior structural integrity and durability against the elements.
Properly maintained, the Rocket Series (YYS model) will provide years of reliable service. This also means your air-conditioner will likely last longer, saving you money in the long term. In fact, the distributing agent, KM Marketing, offers one year of full warranty and five years of warranty on the compressor.
The Rocket Series (YYS model)’s five-tick rating means you can use your Climate Vouchers – up to $400 – to help you save money on the initial installation, as well as alleviate your monthly utilities bill for the long term.

To ensure you always have control, the new Rocket Series (YYS model) boasts Wi-Fi capabilities which allows you to manage the temperature of your home through an app. This is especially useful if you are expecting guests or if your children are home alone when the temperature rises. Wi-Fi controls also help in a pinch when you’re leaving the house in a hurry and forget to turn your air-conditioner off.
Another innovation is the Allergen Clear Filter which inactivates 99.9 per cent of bacteria and viruses, including the Covid-19 virus, leaving you with cleaner air so you and your loved ones can breathe easy
For those with a larger home, the new air-conditioner does not disappoint in its high performance, delivering an air projection with a range of up to 20m.
Even in a modestly sized unit, MHI’s specially developed Jet Flow and 3D Auto features ensure all parts of the room are cooled evenly, without additional circulation devices. Instead of a direct frigid blast, the supply units have vertical and horizontal control over air, sending a pleasant cool breeze descending from your ceiling.
These technologies tap on MHI’s research and development in its other business units building airplanes, ships and trains. With industry-grade and quality components, MHI’s residential air-conditioners will last you for years to come, keeping both your electricity bills low and your home comfortably cool.
The new Rocket Series (YYS model) is available at all major retailers such as Gain City, Best Denki, Courts and all authorised dealers.
