dry mode makes the internal fan run slower to allow more moisture condensation. this means the blower uses a bit less power (maybe 2-5 Watt only).
BUT: dryer air feels colder (it allows for better body cooling). usually 65° humidity air feels 2-3° cooler to humans than "regular a/c air" when you set the AC to 28°. so in dry mode you only have to chill the room to 28° to feel like 25°. that is where the savings kick in.i would recommend to you to try it. for our house many rooms are in dry mode at 29 or even 30 degrees and they feel cool. my home office ist @ dry mode 30°, temp is 29.7° right now and it feels cold. actually a bit too cold. need long sleeves
may I ask how many airconds you have in house, and how many hours you normally use, and your electricity bill per month (average)?BUT: dryer air feels colder (it allows for better body cooling). usually 65° humidity air feels 2-3° cooler to humans than "regular a/c air" when you set the AC to 28°. so in dry mode you only have to chill the room to 28° to feel like 25°. that is where the savings kick in.i would recommend to you to try it. for our house many rooms are in dry mode at 29 or even 30 degrees and they feel cool. my home office ist @ dry mode 30°, temp is 29.7° right now and it feels cold. actually a bit too cold. need long sleeves
