I heard that inverters use the cooling gas that costs a lot more mahal than non inverter gas.

now new aircon is either using R410a or R32 and both is same either inverter or non inverter. Just contractor wanna charge you more than tell you inverter gas is more expensive.

for a 1hp aircon, is it better to get an inverter aircon or non-inverter aircon? in terms of cost of operation, cooling etc.

comfort yes
savings - depends on your room size and aircond design. a proper ac design will save more electrical with inverter tech
servicing, inverter more expensive

in future, R32 gas will be cheapest among all

it's like printer ink, the older the ink model, the more expensive it gets

1. No such thing as inverter rosak is not fixable. Even non-inverter if major failure can throw away.
2. Gas mahal? Inverter and non-inverter can use same gas which is either R22, R410A, and R32. And R410A and R32 is more expensive than R22 because they are better, more efficient. But R22 gas will be banned in next few years because its harmful to the environment. R410A is widely used now, R32 is the future.
3. Service mahal? Why? Inverter and non-inverter only difference is extra electronic controller on the outdoor. Why the fark your serviceman charge more? Did they cleanup the electronic PCB also? I dont think so. So you kena con coz u r dumb dumb.
4. Why install mahal? Again you kena con. Installing inverter and non-inverter technically is same. Inverter might need 1 extra core wire between indoor and outdoor unit, but it is not a major problem for installation.

Your theory (which is true) cant beat a market force.. If every installer already charge based on type of aircond (inverter or non inverter), then, that's how it is.

Just like durian with comparable size & taste but their type still determine the price different.

Noticed inverter coldness is more soothing whereas the old type r22 is more to sharpingly cold...

This is right if u set 26 it will stay 26 and yes sharp cold until need off aircond or turn lower while inverter I guess will adjust based on room temperature

Depends on where you're using the air cond. If in the room where you leave it on for hours, then inverter is a good choice mainly because it saves you power in the long run and is able to maintain constant temperature.

If for short time usage like living space, not necessary for inverter.

For normal consumer household, inverter isn't going to save anything. At most you can only save a few cents.

1 hp. is sufficient. 1.5 if you have extra money. Inverter if you turn on for long hours.

Inverter is the way to go. Those who says inverter needs xxx hours to save cost or throw if rosak are those uninformed idiots.

To repair inverter is the same as non-inverter. Spare parts are available as per normal.

Inverter is always power savings compared to non, yes in detail, the inverter unit will cost some overhead in power consumption, but it is miniscule and it will pay off during usage. The only situation where its more consuming, it would be you undersized the AC causing it to run at max power all the time.
