Having created it, a person delegated the decision to create and maintain comfortable conditions to automation and computer. The latter is based on the readings of the sensors both indoors/salon and beyond.

In the car, the difference between climate control and air conditioning is in a number of parameters:

Comfort of stay in the cabin.
It is higher with climate control, since the air conditioner only cools the air and dries it to avoid fogging the glasses.
Ease of use.
In the first version, a person selects a mode that is supported automatically, in the second sets up the necessary parameters manually.
Personal approach.
Currently, there are climate control systems to create personal comfort to each passenger of the car. Air conditioners have no similar opportunity.

The difference between the appliances in the apartment is similar. You can easily create the desired microclimate for each room of your apartment. The climate control system allows this.

However, there is a nuance - it is impossible to include air conditioning at minus temperature outside the window, with the exception of its dear representatives.

A significant minus of the climate control system is its high cost and the cost of repairs in case of breakdown. If it is included in the car, it automatically becomes much more expensive than its “brothers” with air conditioning. The same situation with apartments.

The climate control in the apartment creates more comfortable conditions for a person than air conditioning:

it has “brains”, intellectual control, thanks to which the modes during operation occurs,
it consists of a set of devices-ionizers, moisturizers, air conditioners, drainers, a warm floor system, supply and exhaust ventilation, sensors for tracking climatic changes in the housing space and outside it,
it is able to maintain a minimum allowable temperature in the absence of people in the room.

safety and comfort of the driver while driving
has a built -in heating function
independently regulates the level of air humidity in the cabin
creates personal comfort conditions for the driver and passengers
saves fuel because automation regulates heat supply intensity and air cooling

The apartment with the climate control system has the following advantages:

does not require manual changes in parameters if this regime was not chosen by the hosts initially
personalization of settings for each room
saving cash resources when paying utility bills
ease of control - remote control, panel screen, mobile phone

Set the necessary parameters of temperature and supply of warm air. If this is not done, but simply turn on the climate control, then the system will begin to heat the windshield, then the legs and face of the driver and passenger.
The heat from the hot engine warms the air entered from the outer space through the radiator.
Select the “Auto” mode and leave the smart system to independently regulate the process.
After reaching the desired temperature in the cabin, the climate control system changes its work-it supports the result.

If your car is installed in your car, it can be replaced with climate control. You will need additional details, wiring and panel for the system, as well as time and patience for this venture. At the same time, you can replace both in the service of the repair service and yourself in the garage.

The absolutely opposite situation with the change of air conditioning to the climate control system in the apartment. Firstly, there are modern inverter types of air conditioners who can do almost everyone too as their “smart advanced” competitors.

Secondly, the cost of such an event is quite high. In addition to the purchase of system elements, you will need to organize their proper installation and connection. Without specialists in replacing the air conditioner with climate control in the apartment, you can’t do.

Therefore, weigh the pros and cons of the car or apartment with the installed climate control system or its installation in them instead of the air conditioner.
