Mini Split Repair in Chemung, IL

Yes. Inverter-driven mini splits run most efficiently when left on continuously at a steady temperature. Turning them off when you leave the house and back on when you return forces the compressor to work at 100% capacity, which uses more electricity than maintaining the temperature.

For maximum energy efficiency, set the thermostat between 72-78°F in summer and 68-72°F in winter. Unlike traditional systems, mini splits use inverter technology and work best when you set a comfortable temperature and leave it alone rather than constantly adjusting it.
