Air conditioners provide a more comfortable climate in homes, offices, factories, and many other areas during hot or cold weather conditions. With changing climate conditions, air conditioners have become essential in our lives, and with proper usage habits, they operate efficiently while minimizing their negative impact on the environment. However, incorrect usage can lead to adverse consequences such as reduced lifespan of the air conditioner, decreased energy efficiency, increased allergens, and higher costs.
Experts at Form MHI Climate Systems warn about important issues to avoid:
-
Failure to regularly clean or replace filters minimizes efficiency. Air conditioner filters, compressors, valves, fans, and the entire system should be checked by authorized service technicians at specific intervals. Regular cleaning or replacement of filters, in particular, improves air quality and ensures the air conditioner operates at maximum efficiency.
-
Setting the temperature to the highest usable degree increases energy consumption while negatively affecting comfort. Air conditioners designed for the comfort of your area should not be set to heat at high temperatures or cool at low temperatures, as this leads to excessive energy consumption.
-
Risk of discomfort such as heat stroke, muscle cramps, muscle aches, and headaches increases with sudden temperature changes, particularly common in summer.
-
Setting the air conditioner temperature to 23–26°C in summer and 20-22°C in winter provides a comfortable environment while saving energy.
-
Keeping windows open while using the air conditioner allows outside hot or cold air to enter, leading to increased energy consumption for heating/cooling. Keeping windows closed enhances the effectiveness of the air conditioner and saves energy.
-
Leaving the air conditioner running throughout the night leads to unnecessary energy consumption and failure to maintain humidity levels. Using the sleep mode or setting automatic shutdown helps save energy.
-
Leaving the air conditioner running in an empty room results in energy waste and increased costs. It's important to turn off the unit when not in use, use a sensor-equipped air conditioner, or activate energy-saving mode.
Under the Form Companies Group, MHI Climate Systems provides users with the joy of enjoying their air conditioner without worrying about the details to avoid because MHI internal units and sensor-operated systems automatically shut off when no movement is detected. When movement is detected, they start working automatically. MHI products, known for their highest heating performance, switch to automatic cooling when the room temperature is high, ensuring both the air conditioner and individuals remain at a stable temperature. Remote access to the air conditioner is provided through the Smart M-air application.
