Thinking aloud here.

Ballpark cost of electricity per 1HP window-type aircon per month is P2,000

Cost of AC unit (inverter type)=P25,000; conventional type = P15,000

Delta = P10,000

If indeed 50% reduction in electric bill; then savings per month = P1,000

ROI = 10 months,- not bad.

So, I guess for inefficient old ACs,- 5 years and above, resulting to > P2,000 electric bill per month,- time to switch to the inverter-type AC.

With our house before, i replaced an old .75hp window type (non inverter) with a new .75hp (non inverter) so these were both with the same spec but with the new one in use at night the electricity bill still went down considerably.

kung night time lang ang gamit eh talagang mas mababa ang electric bill kasi 9:00 pm start ng off peak mas less charge per kilowatt.

YuNg old aircon ko.. Talagang malakas sa kuryente.. 1hp Lang maliit pa na room pero ang lakas sa kuryente...

Yung 1hp inverter aircon ko, around 1500 to 2000 ang bill niya per month, 24/7 use yan. Pag mga 5hrs lang kami mawawala hindi na namin off. Ang tipid niya, maybe siguro during night room lang namin pinalalamig niya then pag araw room at sala.

With an inverter aircon 1.5hp min. 12hours on weekdays and almost 24hours on weekends meralco bill ko nasa 4.3.4.6k Lang per month...

Savings ko nasa 3.5k din per month...

In a year Lang bawi ko na... Pinag bile ko sa aircon...

Boss glenn, ano brand ng air con niyo?

We used to operate a conventional window AC (8 hour a day operation), conventional ref and washer cum drier (2 times a week operation; inverter motor), our electric bill hovered at an average of 8k a month. When we changed both AC, ref and washer to inverter, our monthly average bill became 3.5k to 4K.
