Brochures quote sound power in the lab. Your neighbour hears sound pressure at a distance. They are different numbers, and almost nobody publishes the second one. We do. Drag the distance and compare.
Sound power figures are from the public European product registry, read August 2026. Pressure at distance is a free field estimate; a real garden with walls and fences differs, which is why every Balmair installation gets a measured figure, not a promised one. The German night limit in a purely residential area is 35 dB(A) at the neighbour's window.

Most air conditioners are styled like office equipment: glossy plastic, a logo front and centre, a blinking display. Balmair is drawn like furniture. A slim, calm slab with a fine drawn grille, and a front face finished in chalk or graphite mineral composite with a bead-blasted aluminium edge.
No logo on the front face. One soft indicator you can switch off. Sleek on the wall, quiet in the room.

Most brands ship a beautiful indoor unit bolted to a commodity grey box. We design the outdoor unit with the same care: graphite or chalk finish, a drawn grille, and the quietest fan curve we can engineer.

Three of the biggest names in this market publish no comparable commitments. Ours are part of the product.
Answer four questions and get an honest starting point, not a sales call.
A guide, not a survey. Heat gain depends on insulation, orientation and use; our crew confirms the size before anything is ordered.
Check what your home allows, size the room, and see what fits. Our own crews fit the wall system; the portable you simply buy.
