>>1360247>>1360250>>1360256it isn't about the gases used to air condition but the energy air conditioning requires. A basic 5k btu unit uses about 400w (that small window unit you use to cool a 100sq ft room), 10k unit 800w, 15k about 1.2kw. Centralized air units can use anywhere between 3k-5k or more watts and air conditioners run all day long depending on ambient temperature, thermostat settings, and housing insulation. Air conditioning uses a fuck ton of energy and is only projected to get worse due to the need to cool electrics along with higher ambient temperatures.
