Inverter vs non-inverter tip

A modern inverter-type split air conditioner typically consumes 30–50% less electricity than a fixed-speed non-inverter unit of the same capacity, because it adjusts compressor speed rather than cycling on and off at full power. Over a year, the energy saving can more than offset the slightly higher purchase price.
