Climate-controlled operation is increasingly popular to eliminate the need for constant temperature change.

Brands including Kelvinator, Fujitsu, Panasonic and Teco feature climate control functions to keep your space comfortable. Smart human sensors are another useful feature to cool or heat where people are in the room. Human sensors in Fujitsu and Panasonic models monitor human location, movement and absence to adjust air flow accordingly. Teco’s smart “Follow Me” mode activates the temperature sensor built-in to the remote and the air conditioner regulates the room temperature based on the temperature around the remote, just as if the air conditioner is following you.

Stay comfortable while also reducing your consumption with energy saving modes. This mode will run on lower energy thus reducing your overall consumption and environmental footprint. Varied by name, many brands will label their energy saving mode with terms such as “Eco Mode”, “Energy Saving Mode” or “Quiet Mode”.
