Mini Split Amperage Consumption Statistics
Mini split systems typically have an amperage consumption ranging from 5 to 30 amps depending on the cooling capacity and efficiency of the unit.
In this post, we explore the amperage consumption of mini-split systems, shedding light on how various factors such as heating options, cooling capacity, circuit breakers, efficiency ratings, and technology influence power usage. Understanding these statistics can help homeowners make informed decisions about energy-efficient cooling solutions for their spaces.
Statistic 1
"Mini Split systems with heating options may consume slightly more power, and hence have higher amperage."
Statistic 2
"A mini-split system operating at maximum cooling capacity of 36,000 BTU will typically draw about 19-20 amps."
Statistic 3
"The standard 120V mini split uses 15 amp circuit breakers, the consumption is usually less than 15A."
Statistic 4
"The larger 240V mini split systems usually use a 30 amp circuit breaker, though the actual consumption is usually less."
Statistic 5
"Higher efficiency or Energy Star rated mini splits can consume less power, resulting in lower amperage requirements."
Statistic 6
"Mini split ACs with inverter technology can adjust their power consumption based on the needs of the room, thus reducing their Amp draw."
Statistic 7
"Mini splits use less power than traditional HVAC systems, leading to an average 60% decrease in energy consumption."
Statistic 8
"Quietside mini split air conditioners consume around 6.5 Amps for the 9,000 BTU model."
Statistic 9
"In "eco" mode, mini splits can further reduce their power consumption, leading to lower amperage draw."
Statistic 10
"Mitsubishi's 12,000 BTU mini split AC uses around 9.5 Amps at maximum capacity."
Statistic 11
"A GREE 24,000 BTU mini split AC consumes around 11.5 Amps under normal operating conditions."
Statistic 12
"Fujitsu's 9RLS3 9,000 BTU mini split heat pump uses around 4.35 to 6.8 Amp during cooling."
Statistic 13
"A standard 18,000 BTU mini split heat pump uses between 7 to 13 Amps, depending on the model and make."
Statistic 14
"A 30,000 BTU mini split unit from Toshiba uses around 11-13 amps at peak capacity."
