#what to look for in an aircon

[table id=1833 /] Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) Have you ever noticed this yellow card attached on the front of new aircons for sale? Power Consumption (kWh) x Usage (Hours) x Power Rate (Pesos/kWh) For example, if the estimated electricity rate would be P9.6/kWh, and let’s say you leave the aircon on average about 10 hours a day both day and night. The bottom line is if you plan on running your air conditioner for a long amount of time such as in your bedroom when you sleep or where you mostly work throughout the day, then getting an inverter aircon model will help you save money over time. However, if you plan on using your AC for short periods of time like around an hour two at a time, then getting a non-inverter would suffice and be just as efficient as one with an inverter in this case but note that non-inverter aircons are generally more affordable. This simply on and off by non-inverter aircon can take a lot of electricity, especially when done for long periods of time. It’s time to choose what type of aircon you need. Standing aircons usually start at around 4hp and are rather used for offices or living rooms where it would save space by having a standing unit instead of multiple split units.
