    My son and I just finished cleaning the air conditioning unit this afternoon. The condenser is corroded due to neglect. Anyone here has suggestions on how to stop or at least minimize the spread of corrosion aside from regular cleaning?

    By the way, usual charge for cleaning is 400 Pesos. I said to my youngest son that we saved 400 since we did the cleaning. So I followed it up by saying that I will take 200 from it and the other half​, he share it to his older brother. He is more than happy to comply.

    You can minimized that by proper drainage dapat tama yun pitch sa Installation para hinde naiipon diyan yun tubig

    It seems this is not available here. I'll check for similar products. Thanks!

    For a small bedroom that has a single bed, headboard , study desk, a small cabinet. Is it more practical to just install a 0.6hp conventional a/c than a 1.0hp inverter? Will the power consumption be just about the same?

    I'm asking because a relative of mine said that their contractor advised that since the bedroom is so small, a 0.6hp regular a/c will have the same power consumption as a 1.0hp (the minimum for an inverter-type a/c) inverter a/c.

    I've seen the room and the 0.6hp Panasonic a/c was able to cool down the room in, I'm guessing, about 3 minutes. And this was with the afternoon sun hitting the window of said room.

    So, tama nga kaya na if yung a/c ay talagang suitable sa size ng room magiging pareho lang ng inverter type a/c ang power consumption?

    1.0 hp inverter aircon ka na hindi ka magsisi mas mababa consumption compare sa non inverter..

    Could be possible if you simply go by the numbers which is: an inverter saves 40% electricity than a conventional one, ergo 1.0 hp at 40% savings = 0.6hp consumption. I hope an EE here can make an accurate comparison. If this is true, you save 50% upfront on unit cost.

    I wonder how the consumption of a 0.75 hp non inverter compares to a 1.0 hp inverter.

    It depends on the size of the room (area). Meron ba 0.6 hp? AFAIK 0.5hp ang commercially available. As per DOE guideline, a 17 square meter room will require a 0.75hp unit while 1 hp is for up to 22 square meters. You will need to factor in the height of the ceiling as well (should be up to 2.5 meters high). I changed mine from 0.75hp to 1 hp on a 15 square meter room due to higher ceiling. Sizing of the unit must be right as a smaller unit will consume more energy to cool the room. On the other hand, a bigger unit will make the room damp. For power consumption, convert the hp rating into kilowatts by multiplying 0.746 and the number of hours the unit is used to arrive at the kwh-hr which used as the basis for Meralco charging. Of course, as mentioned you have to factor in if the unit is overstressed due to undersizing. Hope this helps.
