What Is AC Short Cycling and Why Is It Dangerous in Dubai
AC short cycling is when your AC turns on and off frequently in the Dubai heat, cycling in short bursts of 2 to 10 minutes. This stresses the compressor and wastes energy due to cooling inefficiency.
The damage from short cycling includes premature compressor failure and significantly high electricity bills, potentially increasing consumption by up to 30%. This wear and tear requires an urgent fix to prevent expensive repairs.
