Air conditioner energy efficiency rating

It has to be said that air conditioners have become one of the must-have items for many families in the hot summer. First of all, it is because the price of air conditioners has become more affordable, and people's living standards have gradually improved, so air conditioners have become one of the home appliances that many families can afford. However, when buying air conditioners, many people don’t know how to choose, especially since many people want to choose air conditioners with better energy efficiency, so they need to look at the energy efficiency level of the air conditioner. So how are air conditioner energy efficiency levels classified?

Today is an era of environmental protection, and many friends have a strong awareness of energy conservation. Therefore, when choosing home appliances such as air conditioners, many friends will choose air conditioners with higher energy efficiency levels, because they can save electricity and reduce a certain amount of energy consumption. So how do we identify and classify the energy efficiency levels of air conditioners?

The air conditioner energy efficiency grade is also known as the air conditioner energy efficiency ratio, which is often directly related to the energy consumption of the air conditioner. It mainly refers to the final ratio of rated cooling capacity to rated power consumption. The air conditioner energy efficiency ratio has become a measurement standard for air conditioners. With the introduction of relevant national regulations, air conditioners with energy efficiency levels of 3 or above are considered qualified products. What are the energy efficiency levels of air conditioners?

How many levels are there for air conditioner energy efficiency?

According to relevant national regulations, air conditioner energy efficiency levels are divided into five levels. The higher the level, the better the quality of the air conditioner. Air conditioners sold on the market generally have a colorful logo with a blue and white background. This label is what we usually call the "China Energy Efficiency Label". It is generally divided into 5 levels: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Different levels represent the quality of the air conditioner.

Level 1 means that the product has reached the international advanced level and is the most power-saving, i.e. the lowest energy consumption;

Level 2 means more power saving;

Level 3 means that the energy efficiency of the product is at the average level of our market;

Level 4 means the product’s energy efficiency is below the market average;

Level 5 is the market access indicator, and products below this level are not allowed to be produced and sold.

Product features of different air conditioning grades

1. The air conditioner energy efficiency level is level one, which means that the product has a high level of production technology and has relatively high requirements in all aspects under the same conditions. Compared with the other levels, this level of air conditioners is generally expensive and has low power consumption. It belongs to the high-end market of air conditioners and its products are more popular among high-end people. What kind of products are of level one air conditioner energy efficiency grade? Generally speaking, products of level one air conditioner energy efficiency grade mainly refer to products with an air conditioner energy efficiency ratio of 3.4 or above. 3.2-3.4 belongs to level two, 3.0-3.2 belongs to level three, 2.8-3.0 belongs to level four, and 2.6-2.8 belongs to level five.

2. How is the energy efficiency ratio of an air conditioner calculated? For example: the rated power of an air conditioner is 903w, and the rated cooling capacity is 2700w, then 2700/903=2.99, which means that the energy efficiency ratio of this product is 2.99, which belongs to the national energy efficiency standard of level 4. Therefore, the final air conditioner energy efficiency level refers to the ratio of rated power to rated cooling capacity. The final ratio range is an indicator to measure the air conditioner energy efficiency level.

3. The general market access condition for air conditioners is that air conditioners with an energy efficiency rating below 3.0 are not allowed to enter the market, which is what we usually call unqualified products. In the future world, energy conservation will become a goal pursued by every industry, and energy-efficient air conditioners will become the mainstream, so the air conditioners of the future will definitely be dominated by energy-saving air conditioners.

After reading the introduction of air conditioner energy efficiency levels, I believe many friends who want to buy air conditioners already know how to choose. In fact, the energy efficiency rating of air conditioners includes five levels, and the smaller the number, the better the energy saving. In addition, the price of this type of air conditioner is relatively high. Of course, the power saving function is better. Therefore, when buying an air conditioner, you must learn to read the grade logo on the air conditioner. In addition, you must also make a choice based on your own financial ability.
