Japanese Expert Reveals Most Energy-Efficient Way to Use Air Conditioning: Increasing Fan Speed Rather Than Lowering Temperature Feels Cooler

Reported 8 months ago

To save on electricity costs during summer, a recent experiment conducted by a Japanese expert from Daikin Industries, Ltd. tested the effectiveness of lowering the temperature by 1 degree versus increasing the fan speed to see which would make a room feel cooler while saving energy. Surprisingly, increasing the fan speed made the room feel significantly cooler compared to lowering the temperature, and it only slightly increased electricity consumption. This suggests that maintaining the air conditioning at 26 degrees Celsius and increasing fan speed is both cooler and more energy-efficient, providing a win-win solution for consumers looking to beat the heat while saving on electricity.
