Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE, a 24,000 BTU inverter floor standing split system, is now in stock at Mascom International for KSh 137,500. Every unit is brand new and sealed. The Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE is a cooling-only system rated at about 7.0 kW of heat removal, sized for rooms of roughly 35 to 50 square metres. Its compressor changes speed to match the heat load, so the room holds close to your setting instead of swinging warm and cold. You can inspect the indoor cabinet at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, Monday to Saturday from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM.
Built for rooms where the system runs from opening time to closing time, the Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE suits server and IT rooms, dental and medical clinics, open-plan workspaces and high-end home lounges. A fixed-speed unit in these spaces cycles hard on and off all day. Staff and patients feel cold, then stuffy, then cold again, and server racks dislike the same swings. The Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE compressor slows down once the set point is reached and keeps trimming its output. Dental practices in Upper Hill and IT managers in Westlands get a quieter, steadier room without anyone reaching for the remote.
Most Nairobi electronics shops sell this size of unit on capacity alone. Mascom International explains the trade-off openly: the Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE costs exactly the same as our fixed-speed AUF-24CR4SJCPA3, so the inverter comes at no extra price. For long daily runs, it is the more sensible pick. Clinic owners across Nairobi tell us the steadier temperature is the first difference they notice. Professional installation is required, and our team can arrange it once you confirm the cost on WhatsApp. Pay-on-arrival delivery covers all 47 counties, with same-day delivery across Nairobi and its environs.
Common Questions About the Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE
Is the Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE an inverter unit, and does it heat as well as cool?
The Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE is an inverter unit that cools only; it does not heat. Hisense distributor documentation lists three operating modes: cooling, dehumidifying and fan. That suits nearly every Kenyan workplace and home, since Nairobi's chilly July mornings rarely justify paying for a heat pump in a clinic or server room. The dehumidifying mode still helps on damp, overcast days by drawing moisture out of the room. If you specifically need heating, ask Mascom International on WhatsApp before ordering.
Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE or AUF-24CR4SJCPA3: which should you buy at the same price?
Choose the Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE if the unit will run most of the day, because both cost KSh 137,500 at Mascom International and only this one has an inverter compressor. The AUF-24CR4SJCPA3 runs at fixed speed, switching fully on and off to hold temperature. That approach works for a boardroom used two hours a day. In a clinic, server room or lounge running from morning to night, the inverter model holds a steadier temperature, starts more gently and generally uses less electricity across a month.
What room size does the Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE cool properly?
The Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE suits rooms of roughly 35 to 50 square metres, such as a dental surgery with its reception, a mid-sized open-plan floor or a large living room. Its 24,000 BTU rating equals about 7.0 kW of heat removal, or 2 tons. Rooms with west-facing glass, many computers or a packed waiting area belong at the lower end of that range. For smaller rooms, the AUF-18TR4SMCPE at KSh 126,000 saves KSh 11,500. Above 50 square metres, consider the AUF-36HR4SCPA.
Can the Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE look after a server room or IT closet?
Yes, the Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE handles small server rooms and comms closets well, because its inverter holds the room near one temperature instead of swinging several degrees. Switches, storage boxes and UPS batteries prefer that stability to sudden blasts of cold. Auto-restart brings the unit back with its last settings after a power cut, so the room never sits forgotten in the heat. For critical racks, Mascom International suggests installing a second unit as backup, since any single unit eventually needs servicing.
How does the Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE cope with KPLC power dips and generator changeovers?
The Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE is designed to keep running through low-voltage conditions, which helps on busy feeders where the evening supply sags. Its inverter compressor ramps up gradually rather than pulling the heavy starting surge of a fixed-speed unit, so generators and changeover switches face a gentler load. After a full outage, auto-restart resumes your previous settings once power returns. Ask your installer to fit a correctly rated voltage protector on the circuit, which costs far less than a replacement compressor.
Is the Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE quiet enough for a dental clinic or home lounge?
The Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE is built for quiet running, and the inverter makes the biggest difference: once the room settles, the compressor slows rather than kicking on and off. The compressor itself sits in the outdoor unit, away from patients and guests. A sleep and night setting lowers running noise further for evenings in a lounge or guest room. Practices near Nairobi Hospital and Aga Khan, where patients already feel tense, avoid the sudden start-up rumble every few minutes.
Does the KSh 137,500 price include installation of the Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE?
No, the KSh 137,500 price covers the Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE indoor and outdoor units, not installation. Professional installation is required, and Mascom International can arrange a qualified technician for you. The job involves positioning the floor cabinet, mounting the outdoor unit, running copper piping and a drain line, then vacuuming and testing the system. Cost depends on pipe length, wall type and which floor the room sits on, so confirm the figure on WhatsApp at +254 708 852 521 before ordering.
Who should buy the Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE, and who should skip it?
Buy the Hisense AUF-24TR4SJCPE if you run a room for long hours and value a steady, quiet temperature: clinics, server rooms, busy open-plan floors and large lounges of 35 to 50 square metres. Skip it if you cannot give up floor space, because the AUC-24HR4SJA cassette mounts in the ceiling for KSh 154,000. Skip it for rooms under 35 square metres, where the AUF-18TR4SMCPE fits better. Halls beyond 50 square metres need the AUF-36HR4SCPA at KSh 177,000 or larger.
Technical Specifications
Capacity and Room Coverage
- Rated at 24,000 BTU per hour, about 7.0 kW, the standard size for a 2-ton split system.
- Suits rooms of roughly 35 to 50 square metres, depending on ceiling height, sun exposure and occupancy.
- Cooling-only design, so the whole system is built around removing heat rather than producing it.
- Fast Cooling function pushes the compressor hard at start-up to pull a hot room down quickly.
- Dehumidifying mode draws moisture out of damp rooms, protecting paper records, instruments and upholstery.
- Fan-only mode circulates room air without running the compressor, saving power when temperatures are already mild.
Inverter Compressor and Energy Savings
- Inverter compressor varies its speed to match the heat load instead of switching fully on and off.
- Once the set temperature is reached, the compressor slows down and holds the room within a narrow band.
- Fewer full-power restarts mean lower electricity use on long daily runs than a fixed-speed unit of equal size.
- Gradual ramp-up avoids the heavy starting surge of fixed-speed units, placing a lighter load on backup generators.
- Steady output removes the cold-then-stuffy cycle that makes people adjust the remote all afternoon.
Indoor Floor Standing Unit
- Floor standing cabinet needs no load-bearing wall, suiting glass partitions, stone walls and rented spaces.
- Multi-angle air intake draws room air from several directions, helping the whole space settle evenly.
- Room temperature sensing reads actual conditions and adjusts output, keeping the space near your chosen setting.
- LED display on the front panel shows the set temperature and mode at a glance across the room.
- Dust filter paired with an activated carbon filter traps fine particles and helps reduce stale indoor odours.
- Quiet running profile suits consultation rooms, lounges and workspaces where people talk or concentrate for hours.
Outdoor Unit and Installation Requirements
- Outdoor unit houses the inverter compressor and condenser, keeping the loudest components outside the room.
- Links to the indoor cabinet through insulated copper refrigerant piping, a drain line and control wiring.
- Piping, drain hose, tape and mounting brackets do not ship in the carton; the installer supplies them on site.
- Needs a shaded, ventilated position with clear space around it, since trapped hot exhaust reduces efficiency.
- Correct vacuuming and pressure testing by a trained technician protects the compressor through years of daily use.
Electrical and Refrigerant
- Runs on a 220 to 240 volt supply, matching standard mains power without any step-down transformer.
- Designed for low-voltage operation, so the unit keeps working through supply dips that stall weaker systems.
- Auto-restart resumes the previous settings after a power cut, so the room recovers without anyone present.
- Charged with R410A refrigerant, a chlorine-free gas that trained technicians across the country service routinely.
- A dedicated circuit with a correctly rated breaker is good practice for this capacity; your installer confirms sizing.
Controls and Features
- Wireless remote control, with two batteries included, sets mode, temperature and timer from anywhere in the room.
- 24-hour programmable timer switches the unit on before the first patient arrives and off after closing.
- Sleep and night setting lowers running noise overnight, suiting home lounges, guest rooms and on-call quarters.
- Three operating modes cover cooling, dehumidifying and fan only, matching output to the day's conditions.
- Comfort adaptation uses room sensing to fine-tune output, reducing manual adjustments through a long shift.
