Features

All star performer
Serene Series 2 is one of Actron Air’s most energy efficient air conditioners yet, with our 2.65kW model reaching the highly sought after 7 star energy rating*.
*7 star energy rating applies to WRC-026DS / WRE-026DS combination. Rated under new climate zone SEER rating.

More cooling in extreme heat
With a market-leading operating range of up to 60°c, Serene is guaranteed to keep working in hotter temperatures. Not only that, Serene is also able to maintain far better capacity in extreme heat than comparable systems, which provides you with more cooling comfort right when you need it most.

R32 for efficient energy performance
Serene uses R32 refrigerant – a gas that offers a low Global Warming Potential – reducing its impact on our environment.

AC vs DC for rockin’ efficiency and performance
Serene uses more energy efficient Direct Current (DC) inverter technology in its inverter compressor, indoor fan and outdoor fan. While some competitors use less efficient AC technology, or combinations of both, we choose DC technology as it can make a huge difference to your electricity bill. With an impressive 25 frequency stages, our DC inverter compressor is up to 35% more efficient than AC technology, while Serene’s DC outdoor fan with five speed settings is up to 40% more efficient. The result is improved efficiencies overall, as well as optimal cooling performance at high and low ambient temperatures, and quieter operation on part load.

Q&A

Q1: What is the cooling and heating capacity?
A: It delivers approximately 5.0 kW cooling and 6.0 kW heating, making it ideal for medium bedrooms, living rooms, or small apartments.

Q2: What type of air conditioner is it?
A: It is a wall-mounted split system, consisting of the WRE-050DS indoor unit and a compatible outdoor condenser for complete operation.

Q3: What room size is it suitable for?
A: Typically suited for medium-sized rooms or open living spaces, depending on insulation, ceiling height, and climate conditions.

Q4: Is it energy efficient?
A: Yes, it uses DC inverter technology and R32 refrigerant, which improves efficiency and reduces electricity consumption compared to older fixed-speed systems.

Q5: How quiet is it during operation?
A: It is designed for low-noise performance, with indoor sound levels as low as around 27–30 dBA in quiet mode, making it suitable for bedrooms.

Q6: What smart and comfort features does it include?
A: It includes Eco Mode, Sleep Mode, Boost Mode, Follow Me sensing, and 3D airflow control, helping optimize comfort and energy use.

Q7: Does it improve air quality?
A: Yes, it includes advanced filtration and optional UVC Light Technology, which helps reduce airborne particles and improve indoor air quality.

Q8: What is the operating temperature range?
A: It is designed to perform in extreme conditions, operating roughly from -25°C to 50°C ambient temperature, depending on system configuration

Maintenance Tips

• Clean air filters every 2–4 weeks (critical): Keeps airflow strong, improves efficiency, and maintains steady 5.0 kW cooling and heating performance.
• Wipe indoor unit panel monthly: Prevents dust buildup that can block airflow and reduce comfort consistency.
• Clean indoor coil annually (professional): Prevents mold, odors, and efficiency loss in high-humidity use.
• Check outdoor unit clearance: Keep at least 30–50 cm around the condenser for proper heat exchange and compressor protection.
• Clean outdoor coil 6–12 monthly: Maintains efficiency in extreme temperatures (-15°C to 50°C operating range).
• Inspect condensate drain line: Ensures smooth water flow to avoid leaks or ceiling/wall damage.
• Run seasonal test cycles: Check cooling and heating before peak summer/winter use to catch early faults.
• Check remote/controller batteries: Replace when response becomes delayed or temperature control is inconsistent.
• Annual professional service: Required for refrigerant checks, electrical tightening, and full system diagnostics.
