As title? Inverter 1HP worth it or better go with non-inverter? Is there any different if temperature is set at 24C with an inverter and will it cause the compressor to run non-stop anyway if 24C?

Most probably run continuously because outside temperature is most probably 27C at night.

If on cold night, then don't need air conditioning

Xiaomi

always buy 0.5hp bigger size than you need.

you will thank me next time.

regarding inverter aircon

https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=5202124&hl=

if your electricity bill is high or you frequently use the aircon, always go inverter

if seldom use and electricity bill is low, can consider non-inverter.

if you're thinking of getting 1HP aircon, better go 1.5HP instead, thank me later.

care to explain?

Depending on your comfortable temperature, enclosed/open area & duration of operation.

Higher temperature, enclosed area & long operation period, go for inverter. Like me, i prefer the temperature to be around 26-26.5, so, inverter is the best for me. If I use non-inverter, it would start and stop so frequent, I might need to change the capacitor once a year

No need buy airkon. Buy this thing one can cool house. Unker use this, gooding.

what capacitor ?

He is the aircon seller

seen this, but never really see many ppl using them.

idk imo its all about luck whether the unit rosak or not. and also sifu piping and etc..

I have Panasonic, Sharp. and Gree. i would say all of these doesnt really differ much although i dont really do in-depth research lah..

Anyway inverter will save u more on electricity but may costs more on repair and initial price.

bruh outside temp has nothing to do with it. the sensor is inside the indoor unit to measure the room temperature. It will not run continuously once it detects room temp is what u set.

Based on your setting, if the air-con start and stop frequently, I think the setting is too high for the difference between set and ambient temperature, hence set it to 25C

Inverter saves by limiting lock rotor current

B40 Aircon

1.5hp will cool the room much faster compared to 1.0hp.

was using 1.0hp in my room, then was given a used 1.5hp, enjoyed the cool air ever since, no regrets.

same for another room, 1.0hp broken down, so changed to 1.5hp, no complains since installation, everyone happy using.

Only if you buy inverter type

Yes, you are right about the temperature sensor

Very obvious. That's why my room is 2hp.

What is B40 sifu? Is brand is it?

The one unker use different brand one. Is call “Daikun”.

Seller say is same company like daikin. Unker dunno. Just buy oni.

woa...cool air all the way

nanni? why they still making non-inverter type?
yeaa, extra few hundreds and your aircond dont need to go full force everytime.

The capacitor inside the compressor unit that is used to start the compressor.

I want 26oC so i need to set 26oC. If I set 25 then the room would be too cold for my comfort.

Why? coz making profits abuthen?

the cost to make both is almost the same i think. but the selling price differ.

It depends on the size of the room, it's insulation and whether internally it has any heat sources.

24-26° isn't an exceptionally low temperature and if the room isn't that big and especially if no one walks in and out of it all the time then a 1hp inverter is good, else get a 1.5hp.

Get an inverter unless you are only using the airconditioner for less than 4 hours per day.

Brands? If you don't like cold air blowing on you do consider buying a Panasonic Sky series or a Samsung Windfree, not cheap but once you start using it then you'll wonder why it isn't a standard feature.

Other than that, Midea, Gree, Daikin and Panasonic are the usual to go to ones that are pretty good and well supported. Make sure you buy one that uses R32 and 5* energy efficiency.

Why capacitor is required for Single phase motor:
Single phase motors are not a self-starting motor, single phase power supply cannot create rotating magnetic field because of its nature (only one phase). So that to rotate the single phase motor we have to give rotary moment or manual rotation to get continuous rotation. But at that same time we can run the motor but adding extra starting winding and the winding will be connected in series with the capacitor. Technically it is called split phase capacitor method. We are going to use the capacitor property (in capacitor voltage lags the current by 90 deg ). Here the supply voltage will be phase shifted by 90deg. hence by adding capacitor we get the two phase simultaneous from our single phase supply. Hence the motor starts rotating.

i only buy if buy 1 free 1

Non inverter one, you have only two state 0% power with compressor off or 100% with compressor on

My room using Mitsubishi super slim.

Panasonic are the best, quiet and saving. Only con is that the indoor unit very fast clog up with dust and molds. U need to clean every 3 months

Midea

If for rental ,

get Hair - now come with 3 year warranty.
Less than RM800 for 1 hp... mana mau cari ?

personally felt...not worth to buy those odd number like 1.5

either 1.0 or 2.0 and must be inverter. just set the temperature lower if 2.0 and call it a day

Aircond always Daikin.

Even tho I never bought 1 myself ... But I am planning on purchasing one. The. Next time I need one.

always buy aircond HP suitable to your room size,

if not your electricity bill will sky high as your aircond is working very hard to try lower down the room temp.

Suitable HP aircond will have a cut off point after 2.5 hours, so that they will not use electricity much once the temperature is reached.

e.g if u use 1 hp aircond for 8 hours in big room, all those 8 hours, the aircond will run at full capacity without cut off.

just buy the most common brand out there

if open daily + long hour = inverter
if occasionally only buka + not long = non-inverter


my new house all use panasonic

National

Use less than 8 hours a day= Normal aircond
More than 8 hours a day= Inverter

Want the best and powerful= Daikin
Want good and silent= Panasonic
Want cheap but okay one= Midea(back then Topaire bought Midea aircond and just paste its brand on it, nowadays dunno hardly see Topaire anymore)

Mitsu or Hitachi.

Min 1.5HP imo unless your room is really really small.

Price difference is not much between 1HP and 1.5HP so it's better to oversize than undersize.

Daikin as always.

If change from non inverter 1.5hp to inverter 1.5hp, does the copper pipe size need to be changed as well?

Just get an inverter. Only 3 to 4 hundred ringgit extra.

damn freaking noisy plus the stupid condenser water still need to channel somewhere to flow out
