Window type aircon (inverter)

[StockEngine]

A friend recently opened a shop at a mall and the contractor installed a Samsung 360° cassette type. I noticed that when their shop is full, around 20-22 people, plus lights, it gets kinda warm (though, no complaints naman from customers). Much colder pa sa common area ng mall compared sa loob. Do you think its under powered?

Additionally, the thermostat setting is always at 18deg°, the lowest I think. Is it ok to keep it that way? Wala bang masisira prematurely if its always at max temp (lowest)? Also, they notice na sobrang bilis dumumi nung filter, and they said na, everytime gusto linisin ung filter, they need to secure a permit with pay pa ata. So very cumbersome, parang dapat daw nag tap na lang sila ng ac sa mall, rather than putting up their own.

Lastly, should a household ac be treated like an auto ac, wherein you put the full blast blower on first for a couple of mins before and after switching it off?

Appreciate the response/s.

Is it even reaching target temps?

On a hot day, we turn on Turbo mode (both LG and Samsung inverter splits supports this feature).

It sets the A/C blower to full blast and the compressor at its highest speed. It switches back to the preset temperature and mode after 15 or 20 minutes.

If your A/C does not have this feature, you can emulate this mode manually.... set the fan on high for the first 15 minutes or so.

This'd be perfect if we had pull down windows.

Sinamahan ko brother ko bumili ng Kolin Window type.
Never knew na tinuturo pa din ng sales person na fan daw muna bago cool. Etc.
Pgka intindi ko sa ganon dapat gawin yon if na off mo tapos need buksan ulit agad. Hindi yung unang on from a long time

If it’s a big conventional window-type A/C, I guess it’s meant to prevent the sudden inrush of current.

But for smaller A/C units below 1HP, some don’t even have independent control of the fan power. It just has a thermostat, timer (also the on/off switch), and fan speed.

Inverters incorporates a delay on the compressor when turning it off then on immediately.

Sa tagal ko ng naka aircon, I never practiced this, besides the condura I buy does not have fan mode anymore, it's just a timer switch, and I never turn the thermostat off, naka pirme lang sya, ayos naman at tumatagal din.
