    i was at mang mario's yesterday. pinalitan yung drier and isang valve ng aircon ko. bigla kasi nawala ang lamig.

    sobrang happy ako kasi ang lamig lamig na ngayon ng aircon ko. humihina na kasi yun at just last week totally nawala na yung lamig.

    sabi sa akin nung isang kausap ko dun, i should keep my aircon settings like this: keep the temperature lever to the leftmost slot (coldest), tapos set the fan to number 2. kasi daw, automatic naman daw magdidis-engage yung compressor pag malamig na. ginagawa ko kasi dati, the lever is at 75% and the fan is either 1 or 2 para tipid gasolina. my car is a civic 98.

    tama ba sabi niya? salamat

    I think tama yung sabi niya, my thermostat is set on the coldest, and my fan is on 1 or 2 setting

    i don't see anything wrong with it.
    pero ako, my thermostat level is set to 2 o'clock, tapos yung fan ko is at 1 lang, pag ako mag-isa. pag kasama ko family ko, my fan is set to 2.

    hindi ba the colder the temperature, the more the compressor works kaya the more magastos sa gasolina? or is this just a myth? yung no-aircon-para-makatipid-sa-gasolina is just naka-aircon ka or hindi ka naka-aircon and nothing in between?

    kung hindi naman masyadong mainit, nasa 40% thermostat ko, tapos fan speed 1 or 2. kung tanghali naman, todo thermostat and speed 3 or 4

    coldest settings? if the thermostat works properly i don't think no chance
    mag-auto ang compressor since naka-full ang settings.
    halfway to 3/4 temp settings would ideal if we want the compressor to
    have time to disengange.

    when i initially open my a/c, i start with the no.2 fan speed,
    at pag malamig na switch to no 1 fan or stay at no.2 depends
    on the weather.

    Even if you leave your AC to full cold, the compressor will still disengage at a certain temp, max coldness doesn't mean subzero temps hehe.

    for my eg, laging 1/2 lang yung thermostat then 1 or 2 pag ako or si misis lang sakay. pag kasama mga bata and tanghali saka ko lang nilalagay sa 3/4 and 3 yung fan.
