Whenever we consider buying an AC, its potential impact on our electricity bills is almost always a point of concern. While air conditioners do consume more power than most appliances in our homes, with the latest technology they can also be made as efficient as possible. There are two main factors that can reveal if an air conditioner consumes less electricity: a 5 Star Rating and an onboard inverter compressor. The former is a standard energy rating issued by the Bureau of Energy Efficiency only to the most energy-efficient air conditioners, while the latter fine-tunes the power levels of an AC depending on the cooling performance required. As a result, inverter ACs with a 5-star rating are some of the most energy-saving ACs that you can get. Here are some options you can consider.
LG 1.5 Ton 5 Star Dual Inverter Split AC
Improving upon the power-saving feature of inverter compressors, the LG Dual Inverter Split AC uses Varied Speed Dual Rotary Motor. This gives it a wider range of operation at high and low power states. So, when your room needs to be cooled, it can push more power than a conventional compressor to bring the temperature down in no time. Then, once your room has reached the desired temperature, it can switch to running with minimal power consumption to maintain that. Not only does the lower frequency save energy, but it also allows the AC to be quieter than most alternatives.
Daikin 1.5 Ton 5 Star Inverter Split AC
Even the most efficient air conditioner is of no use if it cannot cool your home properly. The Daikin Inverter Split AC ensures better cooling with Coanda airflow that directs the air upwards so that it spreads out evenly across the room. Additionally, where bills or power levels are a concern, you can switch to the Econo Mode which limits the maximum energy consumption. However, when the time comes to cool a space quickly, the Power Chill feature will have your back. The model can also auto-detect an error and show you the relevant error code on the remote screen, making self-diagnosis easier and helping resolve the issue faster.
Voltas 1.5 Ton 5 Star Inverter Split AC
In addition to the savings that are brought about by the Inverter Compressor and a 5 Star rated performance, the Voltas Split AC saves even more by adjusting its capacity depending on your needs. The 1.5 Ton AC can switch to a cooling capacity of 1 Ton – which means it consumes less power when there's only one person or lower ambient temperature in the room. Along with cooling expertise, the Voltas Split AC can also modify the composition of the room's air with features like Super Dry, which reduces humidity, and CO2 Reduction, which improves air quality. The usage of R32 refrigerant also leads to a lower environmental impact.
Sanyo 1.5 Ton 5 Star Dual Inverter Wide Split AC
With the increasing air pollution today, the Sanyo Split AC's dedicated PM 2.5 and dust filter is a big benefit. While it is efficient with power, it also focuses on being an aesthetic addition to your home with sleek hydrophilic fins and a tastefully designed concealed temperature display. A good night's sleep is also part of the package with the Sanyo Split AC's Sleep and Timer functions, that adjust the temperature or even shut the AC down according to your pre-programmed instructions. In the event of an unexpected power cut, the air conditioner can also resume at the original settings when the power comes back, making it a hassle-free machine even in areas with power issues.
