Below are common mistakes when using air conditioners that everyone needs to avoid so as not to affect the health and living expenses of the family, including electricity bills as well as equipment operating costs.
Turn off the air conditioner when the room is cool enough: Many people turn off the air conditioner as soon as the room is cool enough and turn it back on when it is hot to save electricity. However, few people expect this to be counterproductive. Because the air conditioner needs to consume a lot of electricity when starting up. Therefore, instead of turning it down to 16 degrees Celsius to quickly cool the room and then turning it off after a few minutes, you should keep it stable at 25 degrees Celsius for a long time, it is better to only turn it off when you have finished using it.

Use the remote control to turn off the air conditioner: Normally, when turning off the air conditioner, we will use the remote control to turn it off. However, turning it off like that will always leave the air conditioner in standby mode and thus will consume an amount of electricity equivalent to a 15W light bulb.
In addition, if the power source in your home is not stable, temporarily turning it off with the remote control can be an unsafe solution because it has the potential to cause an electrical short circuit or fire. Therefore, this is only a way to temporarily turn off the air conditioner in case you leave the house for a short time. So how to turn it off correctly?
According to electronic engineers, the correct way to turn it off is to use the remote control to turn off the air conditioner first, then turn off the circuit breaker to completely stop the operation of the air conditioner. This will help you save maximum electricity as well as protect the safety and increase the life of your family's equipment.
Above are common mistakes when turning off the air conditioner that many people make. Refer to it to master how to use the air conditioner for yourself and your family.
