Finding the perfect air conditioner for your home is a daunting task. With so many things to consider, most often choosing the right one can be overwhelming. As such, product expert from Panasonic Air-Conditioning Philippines, Engr. Neil Galero talks about the most frequently asked questions about aircons and shares tips on how you can save on electric bills.
THE BASICS
Pretty sure you've heard about the inverter technology. But do you know exactly what it is and what it does to your home appliances? An inverter is a control circuit that varies electrical frequency. In an air conditioner, the inverter regulates the electric power linearly in accordance with room conditions to achieve comfortable and energy-saving operations. This is in contrast to a non-inverter AC that only runs at a full speed or stop, thus leading to energy waste.
Engr. Neil Galero compares it to driving a car in that more fuel is saved when driving on an expressway without stopping when compared to driving on a normal road where you need to stop at traffic signs and converging roads. Same is true with air conditioners. At startup, the inverter runs at maximum power to provide quick cooling. Once the set temperature is reached, the inverter maintains efficient operation to minimize changes in temperature. This in turn, prevents wasteful consumption of electricity. Hence, inverter air conditioners provide you better energy-efficiency vs non-inverter air conditioners, which leads to electric bill savings.
BENEFITS OF INVERTER TECHNOLOGY
Inverter technology gives appliances a longer life span. During startup, compressors running inside your appliance experience the most stress and since non-inverter compressors start and stop periodically, they can wear out much earlier than inverter compressors.
Panasonic appliances are certified Japan Quality. With that, customers can expect superior quality and reliability. With over 60 years of expertise in air conditioning, Panasonic products are engineered with innovative features that deliver unparalleled comfort, energy-efficiency, and ease of use!
In addition to giving appliances a longer life span, inverter technology can help reach a set temperature faster when compared to a non-inverter air conditioner. It can be further enhanced when you have a Panasonic Inverter Air Conditioner because it comes with PAM (Pulse Amplitude Modulation) and PWM (Pulse Width Modulated Wave) which provide faster cooling at startup compared to conventional inverters. According to Engr. Neil Galero, Panasonic’s Inverters are more precise and smoother in controlling the rotation speed of the compressor. He adds, with PAM, Inverter technology increases the power output to accelerate the speed of the compressor, allowing it to deliver strong, cool air at a faster rate. Once the set temperature is reached, PWM stabilizes the rotation speed to maintain a set temperature for constant comfort but still maintaining optimum energy-efficiency.
The unique and patented Inverter technology of Panasonic enables customers to get #PureEnergySavings. At the same time, different types of aircon have this Inverter feature. Panasonic has a window type inverter aircon and the split type inverter aircon.
CONSIDERATIONS IN CHOOSING THE RIGHT AIR CONDITIONER
1. Consider room dimensions.
The size of the room determines what horsepower should best fit your needs. However, a proper room survey is still the best way for assessment.
2. Consider location for the AC
A room survey will determine the ideal location for AC placement. It will also consider the different heat sources present in the room. Knowing these factors will determine the perfect location that'll give the best cooling condition for the room.
Panasonic Air Conditioner with ECO+A.I. feature, this dilemma can be resolved. ECO+A.I. feature ensures that your appliance can intelligently balance energy-savings and comfort without any hassles.
Engr. Neil Galero explains, the ECO Mode with Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) Control automatically learns and judges what is the optimal ECO level based on multiple factors. There’s the room condition (size and ventilation) and the presence of heat sources (sunlight, heat from other appliances, body heat). This feature balances power consumption with the time taken to reach the desired temperature to maintain your comfort with minimal energy waste. Hence, ECO+A.I. lets you save up to 20% more in energy! That’s a big check for any potential customer.
Panasonic Air Conditioners ensure optimal air purification. It has its patented nanoeTM X technology that inhibits viruses and bacteria present in the air. More so, this maintenance-free titanium nanoe™ X generator inhibits the novel coronavirus as verified by Texcell, a global contract research organization. Over 91% of novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) activity was inhibited within 8 hours in a 6.7m³ test space.123
