Understanding How to Calculate Your Air Conditioner’s Electricity Consumption : A Guide

One may often find themselves asking, How much electricity does my air conditioner really take up? It is actually quite simple.
We will be using our ArtiqAir 1.0HP Inverter as a reference for you to better understand the process.

First, we need to convert the “Watt” value to “KiloWatt”’. This can be done with the simple equation below:
Watt value 1000 + kW(h) [Kilowatts per hour]

Example:
The 1.0HP Ez Series Inverter input is 1052 Watts.
1052W 1000 = 1.052 kW(h)

Now, we need to convert the Kilowatt value into the number of hours used in a day. We will be taking the average air conditioner unit usage time of 8 hours a day as an example.
kW(h) x Number of hours used

Example:
1.052kWh x 8 hours = 8.416kWh

Lastly, multiply it by 30 days in a month, and you will get the kWh usage value for the month.
kWh (a day) x 30 = kWh (a month)

Example:
8.416kWh x 30 = 252.46kWh

Electricity Consumption Calculation Based on TNB

How Does Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB) Calculate It?

First 200 kWh (1-200 kWh) per month: (200 x 21.8) /100 = RM43.60

Next 100kWh (201-300kWh) per month: (52.47999999999999 x 33.4) /100 = RM17.53

Estimated Bill: = RM61.13 – (ICPT RM5.05)

Electric Bill (air conditioner Only) = RM56.08

We understand that everyone wants an air conditioner that offers energy savings. So, we are here to introduce ArtiqAir, a 4-star rated air conditioner with an average energy consumption of 1052 kWh per year, offers an efficient and reliable cooling solution.

With its 4-star rating, it indicates that the unit meets or exceeds energy efficiency standards, resulting in lower energy consumption and reduced utility costs compared to lower-rated models.

The annual energy consumption of 1052 kWh suggests that the air conditioner operates with reasonable efficiency, making it a suitable choice for residential or commercial use.

While the exact energy consumption may vary depending on factors such as usage patterns and climate conditions, this air conditioner demonstrates a level of efficiency that can lead to significant energy savings over time.

In a Nutshell

In conclusion, by choosing a 4-star rated air conditioner with this energy consumption level, you can enjoy a comfortable indoor environment while minimizing your ecological footprint and reducing your energy expenses.

It is always recommended to check and compare the energy efficiency ratings and annual energy consumption of different models to make an informed decision based on your specific needs and preferences.
