The use of air conditioning for heating, gives me the intuitive impression that it costs electricity, which is undoubted, after all, a few kilowatts of power, subconsciously I will turn on it for a while, or adjust the temperature a little lower, but the question is, does it really save electricity when the heating temperature of the air conditioner is lowered? For example, 22 degrees or 26 degrees of power saving? How to save electricity when heating an air conditioner? This is really worth it, after all, 22 degrees indoors in winter is also acceptable, and it is naturally a good thing to save some electricity.
Some friends said that the heating of the air conditioner is naturally more energy-saving than 26 degrees, this is because the heating of the air conditioner needs to consume electricity, and the temperature is lower, and the air conditioner can quickly reach the heating temperature, which means that less electricity is consumed, and the lower the temperature, the more power is saved.
Some friends also said that the use of air conditioning heating, the difference between setting 22 degrees and 26 degrees is not big, and the degree of electricity consumption is about the same, this is because the power of the air conditioner remains the same, and it has been heating, that is, the lowest 16 degrees is set, and the power consumption is about the same.
Who's right? Actually, these two friends are right. It's just that this question is not rigorous enough. Intuitively speaking, when the air conditioner is heating, the lower the set temperature, the faster the air conditioner does reach the set temperature, and the lower the power consumption. However, if the air conditioner is used to heat the space, the thermal insulation performance is very poor, and it is difficult for the air conditioner to reach the set temperature, such as 22 degrees, then the air conditioner will be heating all the time, this situation is like what the second friend said, that is, the minimum 16 degrees is set, as long as the power of the air conditioner remains unchanged and has been working, the natural consumption of electricity is the same.
Therefore, the use of air conditioning heating, 22 degrees and 26 degrees in the end which is more energy-saving, it depends on the thermal insulation performance of the heating room, if the heat preservation room is better, it is naturally set to 22 degrees, the air conditioner is more energy-saving, if the thermal insulation performance is not good, the degree of power consumption of the two degrees is the same.
To explain this problem, how to save electricity by using air conditioners for heating? The following points should be noted:
1. Enhance the thermal insulation performance of the room, seal the door and window seams to prevent heat loss, so that the air conditioning heating can reach the set heating temperature faster, and it is more energy-saving.
2. Don't set the temperature of the air conditioner too high, 22 degrees or 20 degrees indoors in winter, it will be very comfortable, too high not only consumes electricity, but also easy to dry mouth, affecting health.
3. Don't turn on and off the air conditioner frequently when heating, as it is not comfortable to consume electricity.
4. Try not to turn on the electric auxiliary heat, which is directly converted to electric heat, which is very electricity-consuming.
5. It is recommended to choose an air conditioner with first-class energy efficiency and a power matching area when purchasing an air conditioner.
6. Pay attention to regular cleaning and maintenance of the air conditioner, especially the cleaning of the filter screen of the indoor unit and the cleaning of the evaporator of the outdoor unit to enhance its heat exchange performance.
In this way, the use of air conditioning for heating is believed to save a lot of electricity bills. But then again, air conditioning is for people, electricity consumption is inevitable, between comfort and power saving, comfort should be the mainstay, otherwise it will be more energy-saving if it is not turned on.
