How Does Inverter Technology Saves Electricity?

Of all the home appliances, buying air conditioners in India becomes a pain point for most people since electricity bill shoots up as soon as air conditioner is added to the list of home appliances. Although it is not possible to significantly reduce the huge impact which air conditioners cause to electricity bills, but it can be minimized to a large extent by choosing the right technology, doing the right installation, regular maintenance and correct operation and by doing the right insulation of the room where the air conditioner is used.

In the olden time, not many options were available in terms of choice of technology. Then BEE actively started analyzing and labeling the air conditioners by giving them star ratings. The most recent technology available to us in terms of saving electricity is Inverter Technology for air conditioners. Air conditioners with inverter technology are designed in such a way to save electricity up to 30-50% over a regular air conditioner. Since the beginning of 2016 BEE has started giving star ratings to inverter technology ACs as well.

What is Inverter Air Conditioner?

In inverter Air Conditioner, AC Compressor draw power only on need basis. When more power is needed, compressor draw more power. When less power is needed, compressor draw less power depending on the temperature of the incoming air and the level set in the thermostat. In non-inverter air conditioner, compressor is always drawing same amount of power and when the temperature set in the thermostat is reached, it shut down. Again when the temperature of the room increases, compressor starts again. This process is inefficient and results in wastage of electricity. Inverter air Conditioners are designed to keep compressor always on but draw less or more power depending on the requirement.

Although air conditioner with Inverter Technology adjusts its capacity based on the head load of the room, care should be taken to install a right sized air conditioner. Before making a purchase, please make sure that you evaluate the room and air conditioner capacity. You can buy online a wide range of inverter air conditioners from Aldahome Appliances.
