Abstract: An air conditioning system includes an air conditioning apparatus, and a controller. The air conditioning apparatus performs air conditioning of an air-conditioning target space. The controller is connectable to a plurality of types of thermostats. The controller performs communication with the thermostat connected thereto. The controller performs a performance determination process for the refrigeration cycle apparatus. The controller performs different performance determination processes according to whether a first type of thermostat is connected thereto unit or whether a second type of thermostat is connected thereto. Alternatively, the air conditioning apparatus changes a method for using information received by the controller from the thermostat according to whether being in a determination processing time over which the performance determination process is performed or in a non-determination processing time over which the performance determination process is not performed.

Abstract: A performance degradation diagnosis system includes a determining unit, and control unit. A refrigeration cycle apparatus includes a refrigerant circuit having a compressor, heat-source-side heat exchanger, and use-side heat exchanger. The determining unit determines, based on an index indicating an operation state of the refrigeration cycle apparatus, performance degradation of the refrigeration cycle apparatus with respect to each of a plurality of performance degradation factors. In a case in which the determining unit determines performance degradation, the control unit grasps an operation condition of the refrigeration cycle apparatus which is operating.

Abstract: A refrigerant-amount determination kit includes a sensor and a processor. The sensor is mounted at least temporarily on at least one of a portion of a refrigeration cycle apparatus and the periphery of the refrigeration cycle apparatus. The refrigeration cycle apparatus is an apparatus having a refrigerant circuit that includes a compressor, a condenser, and an evaporator. The processor determines the amount of a refrigerant in the refrigerant circuit based on a detection result detected by the sensor during operation of the refrigeration cycle apparatus.

Abstract: Providing a refrigerant circuit apparatus evaluation system, which, when a plurality of refrigerant circuit apparatuses is installed, may accurately determine whether a heat source unit of each refrigerant circuit apparatus adversely affects the operation of a different refrigerant circuit apparatus. A refrigerant circuit apparatus evaluation system includes memory and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry acquires operation data on a first air-conditioning apparatus. The first air-conditioning apparatus includes a first heat source unit. The processing circuitry determines whether an operation of a second heat source unit different from the first heat source unit has an adverse effect on an operation of the first heat source unit based on the operation data on the first air-conditioning apparatus acquired by the processing circuitry when the first air-conditioning apparatus and a second air-conditioning apparatus including the second heat source unit are simultaneously operating.

Abstract: An apparatus evaluation system includes a first evaluation unit that evaluates a first air conditioning apparatus, and a first air conditioning control unit that controls a second air conditioning apparatus. The first evaluation unit performs a first evaluation process to evaluate the first air conditioning apparatus based on a first evaluation index obtained in a first operation performed as a first evaluation operation at a time of installation, and a second evaluation process to evaluate the first air conditioning apparatus based on the first evaluation index obtained in a second operation performed as the first evaluation operation after the first evaluation process. The control unit operates the second air conditioning apparatus before at least one of the first and second operations of the first air conditioning apparatus is performed, and/or while at least one of the first and second operations of the first air conditioning apparatus is being performed.
