Use air conditioning in winter to save electricity

Do not turn on the electric auxiliary heating function

　　Many air conditioners have electric auxiliary heating function, so how useful is this function and does it cost electricity? “Without electric auxiliary heating, the heating power of the general air conditioner is about 1KW, and the heating capacity is about 3KW. That is to say, it consumes 1KW of electricity and can generate 3KW of heat." Master Zhang said, “The air conditioner turns on electric auxiliary. The thermal function, similar to a hair dryer, directly converts electrical energy into thermal energy, which requires more energy. Air conditioners equipped with electric auxiliary heating function are generally old-fashioned products. New models have better heat exchange efficiency and can achieve very high heat exchange efficiency without electric auxiliary heating. Good heating effect. Therefore, generally do not turn on the electric auxiliary heating function."

　　 Do not switch the air conditioner frequently in a short time

"Use the air conditioner for heating in winter, and avoid frequent switching of the air conditioner in a short time." Master Zhang explained that when the air conditioner starts, the outdoor unit compressor needs to be started at the same time, and every time the compressor starts, it needs a lot of current to switch back and forth in a short time. Air conditioning means that the compressor needs to be started frequently, which indirectly causes additional power consumption and damages the compressor. Therefore, there is no need to turn off the air conditioner if you go out for a short time.

　　 Temperature setting is about 20

"When using air conditioners in winter, many consumers like to set the temperature to z* high, which is not advisable." Master Zhang suggested that the air conditioner temperature should be set to about 20. Within this temperature range, the human body feels more comfortable. And the air conditioner also has better energy saving effect. When the air conditioner is turned on, you can set a slightly higher temperature to allow the air conditioner to reach the expected temperature quickly. When the temperature feels suitable, then lower the temperature and change it to a low air volume or energy-saving mode to reduce energy consumption. "

　　 The number of air conditioners is proportional to the room area

Similar to refrigeration, the heating of air conditioners also has area limitations. For example, the number of air conditioners is small, and the area of the room is too large, which will inevitably cause the air conditioner to overload and increase power consumption. Therefore, it is also necessary to accurately match the number of air conditioners and the room area. An effective method for air conditioning, heating and power saving. Master Zhang said: “Generally speaking, the heating area of 1P hanging mechanism is 10-12 square meters, and the heating area of ​​1.5P hanging mechanism is 17-23 square meters. The 2P cabinet can guarantee 23-35 square meters of living room heating. "
