Air Conditioner Energy Consumption
The Energy Consumption or Power Usage of Air Conditioners and Heat Pumps is difficult to determine without detailed investigations. There are so many things that change how much energy a unit will consume:
- Temperature and Humidity – Indoor and Outside
- Floorplan, and air flow
- Insulation, in the roof, under the floor, in the walls
- Types of windows
- Any drafts
- Orientation of the building
- Size of the unit
- Setting of the unit
This list is not exhaustive. But as you can see there are so many variables. In our FAQ section we give a number of how much energy we think we can save you. But this is just a number. How much you will actually save is dependent on so many factors. Basically we think that in most situations we can save you 20% on your Air Conditioner Power Consumption
