How Pioneer and EES make year-round home comfort easy
A cooler refrigerant
All Pioneer air conditioners and heat pumps use either M50 or M60 hydrocarbon refrigerant. (Refrigerant is what moves heat energy from one part of your system to another.) Hydrocarbons are naturally occurring organic compounds, made up entirely of hydrogen and carbon. Hydrocarbon refrigerants are environmentally friendly, non-toxic and don’t deplete the ozone layer.
Professional installation, reliable service: the EES difference
To operate at its best and keep working well for many years to come, your Pioneer Blade or Pro Series heat pump needs to be professionally installed and serviced annually. EES makes that easy!
Take it easy with a 7-year warranty
Should anything go wrong with your Pioneer heat pump / air conditioner, our 7-year warranty offers unbeatable peace of mind!
What makes Pioneer a smart choice
Pioneer has led the way in heat pump technology across Australia for over three decades and now, with EES, brings that experience to New Zealand. Here’s why a heating and air conditioning brand that’s trusted by Australians is a great choice for your family here in New Zealand.
Pioneer air conditioning systems
Air conditioners or heat pumps are becoming more popular with homeowners every year. It’s no surprise! Cool in summer, warm in winter... what’s not to like? Like any home appliance, though, every choice we make comes with a cost to the environment. Pioneer air conditioning has been created to reduce that impact, making it a very cool choice for anyone with the planet at heart.
Safe for you and the environment
Pioneer ducted air conditioning systems have a global patented hydrocarbon refrigerant gas safety detection system. A refrigerant gas detector is located inside the indoor unit (located in the roof cavity). If a leak is detected the system will immediately go into a safety pump down, pumping all the refrigerant into the outdoor unit and then shutting the whole system down.
M50 and M60 refrigerant
Pioneer’s revolutionary M50 and M60 hydrocarbon refrigerant operates safely, with a low environmental impact.
Engineered for Kiwi conditions
New Zealand winters are hard on heat pumps due to the outside ambient conditions being cold and damp (high humidity) so Pioneer has developed special heat exchangers for New Zealand with higher refrigerant fluid velocity, higher refrigerant turbulence, higher surface area and large temperature differential – all contributing to more efficient heat transfer and shorter defrost times.
Easy on the planet
M50 refrigerant also means your Pioneer Blade Series heat pump has extremely low global warming potential (GWP) and an ozone depletion potential (ODP) of zero. That makes choosing Pioneer a great way to help take care of our planet!
Total control
A wall mounted controller is centrally located for you to set your desired temperature and set it to automatically turn on and off at a time that’s convenient for you.
Wi-fi control
Coming home to a room that’s welcoming and warm (or cool in summer) is easy – your Blade Series heat pump is wi-fi enabled so you can set the desired temperature from your Pioneer smartphone app.
The Pioneer Blade Series and Pro Series ranges
Pioneer Blade Series
The Pioneer Blade Series features high-wall heat pumps designed to quickly and efficiently heat or cool one room. Inside, the unit delivers warm or cool air where you need it, as set on the handy remote control unit or smartphone app. Outside, an efficient air conditioning unit takes ambient heat from the air or removes it from your room.
Pioneer Pro Series
A quiet, powerful central air conditioning unit is concealed in your roof space, connected to a single outside unit against the wall of your house. All that’s visible in each room is the ceiling diffuser delivering warm or cool air as needed, along with a return air grill and a wall-mounted controller to manage your system.
