  • The company says it received two Euromonitor recognitions, including World's No.1 R290 Air Conditioner Company for the fourth consecutive year.
  • PortaSplit will adopt R290 as a refrigerant in 2027, according to Midea.
  • MHELIOS manages EV chargers, heat pumps, solar and storage based on dynamic electricity pricing.
  • A German case study cited annual savings of approximately €1,866 for a home consuming 10,800 kWh.

Two Euromonitor recognitions at the fair

At Chillventa 2026, held on 13-15 October, Midea showed products covering indoor heat pumps, cold climate heating, smart comfort and home energy management. According to the company, it received two Euromonitor recognitions during the exhibition: World's No.1 Residential Inverter Air Conditioner Company and World's No.1 R290 Air Conditioner Company for the fourth consecutive year.

Ralph Kobsik, General Manager of Midea Europe GmbH, accepted the awards.

H-Pack: a heat pump without an outdoor unit

One of the highlights was H-Pack, an indoor heat pump solution developed by Midea's European R&D team. According to Midea, it targets installation challenges in the European market by removing the need for an outdoor unit. That is meant to ease concerns about noise, limited space and building regulations.

The company says the modular design simplifies installation and maintenance, while remote diagnostics reduce service visits. The system supports all-electric and hybrid operation. At its booth, Midea presented case studies of pilot projects from across Europe to show how H-Pack works in different real world installations.

Air conditioners: VitaBreeze, Raynor and PortaSplit

Midea also demonstrated VitaBreeze live, including its AirGrid technology. With a smartphone, users can visualize and direct airflow to where it is needed. Other listed features include wide angle air distribution, intelligent occupancy sensing, the latest Breezeless Pro technology with a 30% larger air outlet area, ClimaBalance humidity control and the ECOMASTER 2.0 predictive algorithm for optimizing energy use.

In the premium split AC segment, Raynor combines A+++ cooling and heating efficiency with a design that has won recognition from both the iF Design Award and the German Design Award. Raynor Pro is built for Nordic climates. Midea says it delivers 100% heating output at -25°C and operates in temperatures as low as -40°C.

PortaSplit drew strong interest with a demonstration of real European window installation scenarios. Midea describes it as combining flexible deployment, strong performance and low noise operation, with a simple installation process that can significantly reduce installation costs. The company announced that PortaSplit will adopt R290 as a refrigerant in 2027.

MHELIOS manages energy across the home

MHELIOS is Midea's whole-home energy management solution. According to the company, it optimizes energy storage and consumption based on dynamic electricity pricing, which helps reduce household energy costs and improve grid efficiency. It also allows integrated management of EV chargers, heat pumps, and solar and energy storage systems.

Midea cited a German case study that showed annual savings of approximately €1,866 for a home consuming 10,800 kWh. This figure comes from the company's own example and applies to that specific case.

What it means for European buyers

The showcase points to Midea's focus on the European market, where, according to the company, outdoor units can raise issues of noise, space and regulation. H-Pack is presented as one answer, and the planned R290 switch for PortaSplit follows the refrigerant emphasis behind its Euromonitor recognition. Midea frames its work under the "Green Vision, Blue Future" commitment, aiming for more efficient, comfortable and sustainable living across Europe. The announcement gives no prices or availability dates for the products shown.
