    i was at mang mario's yesterday. pinalitan yung drier and isang valve ng aircon ko. bigla kasi nawala ang lamig.

    sobrang happy ako kasi ang lamig lamig na ngayon ng aircon ko. humihina na kasi yun at just last week totally nawala na yung lamig.

    sabi sa akin nung isang kausap ko dun, i should keep my aircon settings like this: keep the temperature lever to the leftmost slot (coldest), tapos set the fan to number 2. kasi daw, automatic naman daw magdidis-engage yung compressor pag malamig na. ginagawa ko kasi dati, the lever is at 75% and the fan is either 1 or 2 para tipid gasolina. my car is a civic 98.

    tama ba sabi niya? salamat

    I think tama yung sabi niya, my thermostat is set on the coldest, and my fan is on 1 or 2 setting

    i don't see anything wrong with it.
    pero ako, my thermostat level is set to 2 o'clock, tapos yung fan ko is at 1 lang, pag ako mag-isa. pag kasama ko family ko, my fan is set to 2.

    hindi ba the colder the temperature, the more the compressor works kaya the more magastos sa gasolina? or is this just a myth? yung no-aircon-para-makatipid-sa-gasolina is just naka-aircon ka or hindi ka naka-aircon and nothing in between?

    kung hindi naman masyadong mainit, nasa 40% thermostat ko, tapos fan speed 1 or 2. kung tanghali naman, todo thermostat and speed 3 or 4

    Assuming your thermostat is working properly, yes, it will disengage. But again, if it's working properly, it will disengage at different temperatures depending on the setting. If you set it at the coldest, then it will turn off the compressor at a lower temperature than if say, it's at the halfway point. IOW, mas malamig yung ime-maintain nyang temp.

    So I don't buy it. I set my thermostat to the coldest possible setting that's comfortable for me and my passengers w/o freezing to death. Fan speed? Again, it depends.

    HTH.

    The Coldest the Temp. Setting, the longest the time the compressor disengage so depends upon the temperature outside.
