Are air conditioners with inverter technology consuming less energy?
I am about to buy an air conditioner for my home.
Some of the air conditoners i saw in the stores have “inverter” technology and are generally more expensive than those without this “inverter” thing.
The salesmen are telling me that those with inverter tech. are consuming less energy. Is it so? Is it worth the price difference?
