1. First Stage:
- In the first stage, the air conditioner operates at a lower speed, typically around 60-70% of its total capacity.
- This lower speed allows the unit to run more quietly and efficiently while still maintaining a comfortable temperature in the home.
- The lower speed also helps to reduce wear and tear on the compressor, extending the life of the unit.
2. Second Stage:
- If the first stage is not able to maintain the desired temperature, the air conditioner will automatically switch to the second stage.
- In this stage, the unit operates at its full capacity, providing maximum cooling power.
- The second stage is typically used on hotter days or when there is a lot of heat gain in the home.
By operating in two stages, a 2-stage high efficiency home central air conditioner can provide efficient and comfortable cooling while minimizing energy usage and wear and tear on the unit.
