Survey on Prioritization of Air Conditioner Related Costs: "Ouchi ni Pro"

Survey Summary

The most desired cost to cut among air conditioner related expenses is "electricity bills," followed by "air conditioner replacement costs." When electricity bills rise, the most common first action taken for air conditioner operation is "changing the temperature setting," indicating that continued use is assumed rather than refraining from or stopping air conditioner use. The market price for air conditioner cleaning is said to be around 10,000 yen, but there is a strong perception among general households that it is "somewhat expensive." While there is strong recognition that air conditioner cleaning is effective for reducing electricity bills, only 1% of people immediately decide to request air conditioner cleaning, with 88% wishing to "consider" it first.
