Window type vs split type AC: ano mas matipid sa kuryente?

[boybi]

Assuming same brand, same rating, alin ang mas matipid?

[XTO]

mas matipid ang window type, afaik 1.5 pinaka mababa sa split. nakahiwalay kasi ang condenser ng split kaya doble consumo hirap pa pagdating sa linisan at leak tracing. but yun nga lang tahimik

[valskie01]

imo mas efficient ang split type

^^^ Bro,- ang huli kong alam, mayroon nang 1HP na split type....

Kausap ko kasi iyong nag-i-install ng split-type AC dito sa trabaho at sinabi niya nga ito sa akin.....

Sa limited observation ko lang, mas matipid ang window type, dahil mas maliit ang loss sa piping and tubing vs. sa mahabang linya ng split type....

diba may mga inverted na split type na daw?? mas mura daw sa kuryente yun..

[valskie01]

yes because of the new technology employed sa split type(e.g. inverter technology) mas mataas na ang cooling capacity and eer ng split type compare sa window type with the same hp rating.

downside lang ng split type is the price, installation and maintenance

my brother mentioned he bought an inverter type A/C. His electric bill went down.

I've read somewhere that inverter type A/C is not as cold as an ordinary one....

maybe not cold enough to preserve fresh food items in the room but cold enough to be comfy even on the warmer days.

Pero, mas mahal ito sa ngayon....

Yup, inverter-type AC's have been in the market for over 2 years, and are more efficient in terms of energy consumption (daw).

I was in the market before, kaya lang problema kasi ang installation sa kuwarto ko. That time, Panasonic's 1.5 HP inverter AC's were selling for 35k (compared to 21k for window-type AC's with the same HP rating). Tapos may cost pa kada foot of copper tubing installed.

Nag inquire ako ng prices, Panasonic inverters are almost 10K more expensive than non-inverter aircons.

Here are the prices:
Panasonic inverter: P35,200.00
Panasonic non-inverter: P26,600.00
Panasonic window-type: P18,600.00
Samsung split type: P25,650.00
Samsung window type: P16,600.00

The aircon will only be used around 2hrs/day, 5 days a week. Pwede na kaya window type nalang? Yung savings for the 2hrs use per day na makukuha ko sa inverter type hindi naman na siguro mararamdaman.

Mas mura sa kuryenete ang window type kase isa lang ang motor nya that delivers the cold air to the room and discharging the heat from the condenser. Unlike the split type may sariling motor for the ACCU (AIr cooled Condensing Unit) and a separate motor for the indoor blower (Evaporator).

i think mas matipid sa kuryente ang window type kesa split type. yung split type kasi, 2 ang pinapaandar ng kuryente dahil hiwalay ang condenser niya. pero sa cooling efficiency, i think mas cooler ang split type and tahimik pa. di ka na rin kelangan magbutas sa wall ng malaki. yung daanan para sa tubings lang ang bubutasan.

[bmacavanza]

inverter is cost effective but expensive initial investment. best choice, if you have the money

[sym]

i agree inverter type or the dc as the tv ads said , in long run and total expense the dc is the wise move

[boybi]

Sadly, hindi kasya ang window type sa wall na paglalagyan ko. Malapad kasi yung nasakot ng window. Ayoko naman sa window mismo ilagay yung AC.

Ang choice ko nalang now is split type AC na inverter or non-inverter. Kung average of 2hrs/day lang ang gamit ng AC, alin ang dapat kong bilhin?

Another thing to consider is the refrigerant R-22 will soon be phased out according to the Montreal Protocol.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montreal_Protocol

The phasing-out of the less active HCFCs started only in 1996 and will go on until a complete phasing-out is achieved in 2030.

Hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) Phase-out Management Plan (HPMP)

Under the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer, especially Executive Committee (ExCom) 53/37 and ExCom 54/39, Parties to this Protocol agreed to set year 2013 as the time to freeze the consumption and production of HCFCs. They also agreed to start reducing its consumption and production in 2015. The time of freezing and reducing HCFCs is then known as 2013/2015.

Get an aircon that uses R-410A.

yup it's already available... just installed a 1HP split type inverter Panasonic aircon yesterday. it can cool down an area up to 18 sqm.
cost is over 31k+ and according to the tech he told me that I can recoup back the price diff of an ordinary split type within 2 yrs on an ave 6hrs/day use??? kahit 22 deg C lang ang setting ay malamig na. kaya lang baka hindi sanay ang balat ko sa lamig ng aircon

pareho tayo ng problema ser boybi kaya no choice ako sa split type. nakalimutan ko kung ilang percent ang matitipid pero malaki. try to ask na lang kasi meron silang power consumption table between conventional and inverter type

Get an aircon that uses R-410A.

this is what they use now

Kung 2yrs mo mababawi yung investment mo sa 6hrs/day na usage, it means na 6yrs ko pa mababawi yung sa akin kung 2hrs/day lang gamit ko? Baka dun nalang ako sa non-inverter, kunin ko na yung almost 10K na difference
