According to experts in electrical appliances, the reason why users of inverter air conditioners still experience an increase in electricity bills is because they buy units with lower capacity than what is required for the room. This causes the air conditioner to operate at maximum capacity, resulting in higher energy consumption and inadequate cooling. In order to save energy, it is important for users to purchase an air conditioner that matches the appropriate capacity.
Furthermore, the installation location of the air conditioner also plays a role in energy savings. It is recommended to install the outdoor unit in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and other sources of heat such as the kitchen or oven.
When installing the outdoor unit, it should not be placed in polluted or excessively humid areas, as this can cause corrosion and reduce the lifespan of the unit. Additionally, to improve heat dissipation, the cooling fan of the outdoor unit should be positioned perpendicular to the airflow.
The optimal distance between the outdoor and indoor units is typically less than 5 meters in length and not exceeding a height difference of 3 meters. This ensures the air conditioner operates efficiently.
It is not advisable to set the air conditioner to a very low temperature.
Many people have the habit of setting the air conditioner to a very low temperature (16-18 degrees Celsius) when entering a room in order to quickly cool it down. However, this is a mistake that should be avoided. Setting the temperature too low will cause the air conditioner to work at maximum capacity to reach the desired temperature, resulting in higher energy consumption.
An inverter air conditioner with variable speed technology automatically adjusts its capacity to reach the desired temperature and then reduces its power consumption to maintain a stable temperature, thus saving energy without the need for manual adjustments.
During usage, some people have the habit of turning off the air conditioner when the room is cool enough, and then turning it back on when the temperature rises, thinking that this will save energy.
However, they may not be aware that each time the air conditioner is turned on/off, it has to restart the cooling process and operate at maximum capacity again to cool the room. This unintentionally consumes more energy instead of saving it.
When using an inverter air conditioner, it is recommended to install a voltage stabilizer to prevent damage to the circuitry, which helps extend the lifespan of the unit and save energy.
In addition, regular cleaning and maintenance of the air conditioner is essential. If the fan blades and air filters are dirty and blocked with dust, the air circulation will be restricted, leading to reduced cooling efficiency and increased energy consumption.
