Highest running costs. Common in older HDB units.

4-Tick

High Efficiency

~15% savings over 3-tick. Good for moderate use.

5-Tick

Inverter

Up to 30% savings. Best for daily use (8+ hrs/day).

Inverter technology adjusts compressor speed to maintain temperature rather than cycling on/off. For most Singapore homes running aircon 6–10 hours daily, the payback on an inverter upgrade is typically 2–4 years.
