Inverter Vs Fixed Speed

Inverter air conditioners are more powerful yet more energy efficient than conventional, non-inverter models. Conventional air conditioners operate at a fixed speed, delivering a fixed amount of cooling and heating. While trying to maintain a set temperature they operate on a 'stop/start' principle. This also explains why inverter systems are a little quieter than more conventional models.

An inverter works like the accelerator of a car, gently increasing or decreasing power. It reaches the desired temperature quicker and steadily maintains it without wild fluctuations. That means uninterrupted comfort and significant savings on running costs. Inverters are more expensive at initial purchase stage, but save money on running costs as a long term investment.
