Then ...

The use of more efficient components may cause the air conditioner to run longer than

an older model, but the total energy consumption will be less. Newer air conditioners do not emit the “blast”of cold air you may be accustomed to from older units, but this IS NOT an indication of lesser cooling capacity or efficiency. Refer to the efficiency rating (EER) and capacity rating (in BTUs/hr.) marked on the air conditioner.
