The use of AC (Air Conditioner) as an air-conditioning is commonly used today. The weather was hot in the city as well as the difficulty of making a room with good air circulation, makes most people uncomfortable when you are in a room that is not air-conditioned. However, it can make use AC electricity bills swell. As input for you to choose AC, the following article will explain how to work air conditioning, and what can be done to minimize the bill.
The general term when we discuss the AC is PK. Perhaps understanding PK itself is still unknown to many people. PK stands Paard Kracht. These are the resources needed to produce a BTU (British Thermal Unit). BTU is what determines the level of cool air produced. Indeed, to produce a large BTU require a greater PK. That is why the level of cold produced by the air conditioner is often determined by its PK.
How to determine the appropriate PK for our room? To answer it, we can use the following formula:
Length of the room (m) x Width room (m) x 500
(This calculation is valid if the high standard of the room is 3 meters. Whenever it is higher, add 1000 BTU per meter)
Then match the following divisions:
results PK
5000 ½
7000 ¾
9000 1
12 000 1 ½
Choosing PK AC
Example:
The room-sized length of 6 m, a width of 3 and a standard height of 3 m. The results perkaliannya a 5 x 3 x 3/3 x 500 = 7500. So after matching the above table, the figure is between 7000 and 9000, so it can be used with AC PK ¾ or 1 HP.
As a suggestion, you should use a 1 PK AC AC work that is not too heavy, because when used AC ¾ PK, the AC has to work harder in order to adjust the size of the room.
In order AC provide maximum results in the supply of fresh air here are some tips that can be done:
Adjust the size of the room with the air conditioning capacity.
Do not be put right at the front door, because the air will be easier to go out to another room.
Do not stand too close to the roof AC. AC took the air out of the top, then if it is too close to the ceiling, narrow space causes the incoming air is not maximal.
Wash the air filter at 1 month.
Perform washing AC evaporator 3 months.
