The difference between an inverter and a non-inverter air conditioner.

What is an Inverter Air Conditioner?
An inverter air conditioner unit has a variable speed compressor motor that adjusts the refrigerant flow inside the unit to control it's cooling and heating capacity as required. The speed of the compressor motor in an inverter unit is directly proportional to the frequency of the power supply. It uses a variable-frequency sensor to control the speed of the motor which in fact regulates the refrigerant flow inside the unit to provide just the right amount of cooling or heating as needed. This eliminates the frequent start-stop cycles thereby increasing the energy efficiency of the unit in the long run.

What is a Non Inverter Air Conditioner?
A non inverter air conditioner unit has a fixed speed compressor motor. Unlike inverter units, they work on an “all or none” principle meaning the compressor automatically goes on and off rather than running at a full speed all the time. The compressor automatically switches off when the desired temperature is reached and starts again when the temperature increases. Because of the frequent on-off cycles, the compressor always works at high power which creates a whole lot of noise while running thereby consuming more electricity at times making them less energy efficient than their inverter counterparts.
