You have probably had sales people come into your home and start recomending Inverter Ducted Air conditioning. And chances are you don't fully understand how it works.
Well here is a basic explanation of Inverter units.
You see, a basic conventional theory has a basic machine it it just like your motor car. This machine basically has two speeds. Flat out and Stop.
Power Inverter
These systems use a lot of electricity in these types of motors because it takes a lot of power to start a motor from Zero. And when your home reaches the climatic characteristic that you requested on your atmosphere control thermostat the motor will turn off completely.
With an inverter Air conditioning system, like Fujitsu, Daikin, or Mitsubishi Electric, these motors are designed differently.
You see, when you turn on an inverter, the motor will start up moderately so that it does not use a lot of power, then the motor moderately speeds up to full power on a sliding scale. This way the theory uses less power to initially start up.
As the ducted theory gets closer to reaching your climatic characteristic that you requested in your home, the motor will start slowing down, thus using less electricity. And as an added benefit, the climatic characteristic in your home will remain more constant, assuming the heat load has been done and you have sized your unit correctly.
The end result is that the motor does not have to completely stop and because of this you don't use a lot of electricity trying to overcome inertia trying to make the motor set in motion from a faultless stop.
They are a very good technology to use when compared to conventional systems, however my personal opinion is that Digital Scroll units will deliver enev more power savings and climatic characteristic control.
One Warning. Do Not Under Size Your Inverter theory Or You Will Use At Least 10% More Electricity Than A conventional Air Conditioning System.
