I. The "cool" may just be an appearance.

1. Dehumidification ≠ cooling; their purposes are completely different.

Many people turn on their air conditioners solely to see which mode "cools down." But dehumidification and cooling are fundamentally different functions. Cooling mode is for cooling, while dehumidification mode is for reducing humidity. 

 

II. Different operating principles lead to different user experiences.

1. Cooling mode: Rapidly lowers the temperature.

In cooling mode, the compressor operates efficiently and quickly removes heat to cool the room. This mode is best used in hot weather, such as during the midday sun. 

 

2. Dehumidification mode: Makes the Air Dry.

The core of dehumidification mode is to regulate humidity. The compressor runs at a low speed or intermittently, allowing moisture in the air to condense and drain, rather than simply cooling it. It's ideal for humid, muggy weather, especially during the rainy season or the return of the south wind. Although the temperature change isn't noticeable, the air will feel fresher and less sticky.

 

 

III. Physical sensations vary greatly; don't rely on "feeling" anymore.

1. Cooling mode can be cool, but occasionally it's too cold and dry.

Although cooling mode quickly reduces temperatures, leaving it on for extended periods can cause a feeling of coldness and dryness and may even trigger headaches or colds.

 

2. Dehumidification refreshes, but it doesn't necessarily cool you down.

Dehumidification mode won't significantly cool you down, but it can eliminate the dampness and stickiness in the air. If you're constantly feeling stuffy in your room and your blanket is damp, dehumidification is a great solution.

 

 IV. There's a significant difference in power consumption; understanding it can help you save money.

1. Cooling mode consumes more power.

Because the compressor runs at high load for extended periods, cooling mode naturally consumes more power.

 

2. Dehumidification mode is more efficient.

The compressor operates intermittently to improve overall efficiency significantly and reduce energy consumption.

 

V. Consequences of choosing the wrong mode:You may experience this every day

1. Using cooling on humid days can hinder the dissipation of moisture.

You might want to cool down your room, but dehumidification is the most important option in humid weather. Using cooling only causes moisture to accumulate, preventing clothes from drying and causing mold on walls.

 

2. Using the dehumidifier at night makes you sleep unbearably hot.

Some people use the dehumidifier at night to save energy, only to find that the room temperature doesn't drop much, and they often wake up in the middle of the night. If the weather is hot, you should still use cooling mode at night or combine it with a fan.

 

 

VI. When should you use which mode?

1. You should use the cooling mode if you want to cool down quickly.

During extremely hot weather, using cooling mode is the best choice.

 

2. You can use the dehumidification mode to dehumidify and relieve stuffiness.

If you feel damp and stuffy and there’s a musty smell in the room, it means the humidity is too high—so it's time to turn on the dehumidification mode.

 

3. If you want to save energy without sweating, please prioritize dehumidification.

If you're only slightly warm and don't want to use too strong an AC, dehumidification is a more energy-efficient option.

 

Don't waste your air conditioning. Choose the right mode based on the weather temperature and indoor humidity. Using the right mode ensures both comfort and savings!
