1. Choose an air conditioner with the right capacity
You need to calculate the capacity of the air conditioner in accordance with the area of the room to choose the type that is capable of cooling and saving energy during use. Too large capacity will cause waste and too small capacity will not guarantee cooling capacity. Air conditioners with appropriate capacity also help the machine operate more stable and durable.
2. Put the air conditioner in the right position
If possible, install the indoor unit of the air conditioner in the middle of the room to ensure that the cold air is evenly distributed throughout the room. You should limit installation in locations that easily cause cold air loss such as doors, windows or corners of the room.

3. Make sure the room is closed
When using the air conditioner, please close the windows and doors to avoid loss of cold air, otherwise the machine will have to work harder to maintain the set temperature. If your windows are in the direction of the sun, add curtains to limit the temperature in the room.
4. Do not turn on and off the air conditioner continuously
You should not turn off the machine when it feels cold enough and turn it back on when it is hot again because this will cause the machine to restart with a large capacity and cool from the beginning, making the machine consume more power and easy to reduce. longevity.
Most air conditioners will operate at low power when the room has reached the set temperature, so you don't need to worry too much. If you find it too cold, increase the temperature instead of turning off the machine and turning it back on again.

With an inverter air conditioner, when the cooling capacity is sufficient, the compressor will slow down, both limiting energy waste and helping to maintain a more stable temperature.
If you have a need to use the air conditioner a lot and have conditions, choose to buy an inverter air conditioner to save on operating costs in the future.
9. Install the extractor properly
If your room has an exhaust fan installed to enhance air exchange for the room, remember to place the fan in an elevated position and not near the indoor unit to ensure that the fan does not suck the cold air out, causing the machine to increase its capacity. consumes more electricity because cold air always sinks below. The best position to place the exhaust fan is overhead and opposite the indoor unit.
