Do you think its under powered?

Additionally, the thermostat setting is always at 18deg°, the lowest I think. Is it ok to keep it that way? Wala bang masisira prematurely if its always at max temp (lowest)? Also, they notice na sobrang bilis dumumi nung filter, and they said na, everytime gusto linisin ung filter, they need to secure a permit with pay pa ata. So very cumbersome, parang dapat daw nag tap na lang sila ng ac sa mall, rather than putting up their own.

Lastly, should a household ac be treated like an auto ac, wherein you put the full blast blower on first for a couple of mins before and after switching it off?

Appreciate the response/s.
When we converted from window type to split type inverter we reduced almost 50% to 70% power consumption.. split type requires inspection for warranty (e.g. area, number of people, lights, electrical plan etc.) before you choose for the suitable HP of aircon. The accredited "inspector" will answer all your concerns po. That's the difference sa window type na you can just buy without proper planning/diagnostic nung target area/room.. Based po sa sinabi nyo mukhang kulang po yung HP nung aircon to cater big crowd and it will consume more electricity kapag underpowered nga..
Yung sa maintenence ng aircon depende din sa dust.. More people = more dusts and kung near sa busy road more dusts din lalo na kung may construction near the area.
Not sure about proper turning off ng ac. If I want to turn it off I"ll just push the power off button.
