OUR MINIBARS PAGES 46-49 FOUR TECHNOLOGIES TO HELP YOU CHOOSE THE RIGHT MINIBAR Our minibars are fitted with next gen smart technologies. Whether they use thermo-absorption or thermoelectric systems, our minibars are eco-friendly, reliable and completely silent. THERMO-ABSORPTION MINIBARS FOR MAXIMUM SAVINGS Next generation thermo-absorption minibars blend the Peltier effect with absorption to generate cold. They are ecological, reliable and completely silent, consuming 66% less energy and therefore quickly offsetting the slightly higher cost (in less than a year). THERMOELECTRIC / PELTIER MINBARS FOR MAXIMUM RELIABILITY Thermoelectric minibars use the Peltier effect to generate cold. They are very reliable but relatively noisy. Their temperature is not adjustable, and they consume relatively high quantities of energy. COMPRESSION MINIBARS FOR MAXIMUM EFFECTIVENESS Compression minibars use a refrigerant to cause cooling by compression. They are effective and affordable but are often loud and tend to suffer wear and tear on the mechanical parts. ABSORPTION MINIBARS FOR MAXIMUM AFFORDABILITY Absorption minibars generate cold by heating a mixture that contains ammonia. They are very affordable, reliable and totally silent, but they sometimes require complete ventilation at the back and may emit a strong ammonia smell in the case of a leak. € 30,000 € 20,000 Cost in Year 1 Compression Compression (with standby mode) Absorption Thermoelectric Thermo-absorption Cost in Year 2 Cost in Year 3 Cost in Year 4 Cost in Year 5 € 10,000 € 0 TOTAL COST PER 100 ROOMS 47
