What is the night mode feature on air conditioners?
The night mode feature is essentially an energy-saving and health-protective mode of air conditioners, designed specifically for nighttime operation.
This mode helps the air conditioner operate more efficiently with special settings to balance the ambient temperature with the body temperature, providing a relaxed feeling and protecting the health of users during sleep.
Better sleep quality thanks to the night mode
How does the night mode feature work?
Typically, with air conditioners that do not have a night mode, you are more likely to experience feeling cold as the night falls even if the air conditioner's temperature remains constant.
This cold sensation comes from the fact that the outside temperature gradually decreases as the night falls, directly affecting the indoor environment, causing the air conditioner to gradually lower its temperature, making the body feel colder, resulting in restless sleep or even waking up in the middle of the night.
At this point, you need to wake up and adjust the temperature, which may not be a big deal for those who are easy sleepers, but for those who often experience insomnia or difficulty sleeping, this can be truly detrimental.
Maintaining an optimal temperature throughout the night
For this reason, the emergence of intelligent night mode has helped air conditioners operate more efficiently while also providing greater convenience for you.
Specifically, the night mode is set automatically, allowing the air conditioner to increase the temperature after a fixed period, ensuring the room temperature is suitable for the user's body heat (usually increasing by ~1 degree every 30 minutes or 1 hour, then continuing to increase to 2 degrees and maintaining that temperature), effectively eliminating the sensation of cold in the middle of the night, thereby helping you sleep better and deeper.
Quality sleep brings you good health
The night mode also brings energy-saving benefits: as dawn approaches, the air conditioner raises the temperature, reducing energy consumption.
The night mode is usually integrated into the scheduled shutdown timer in the evening - so when you set the timer to turn off the machine, this mode will be activated automatically.
Toshiba's Comfort Sleep mode
The Comfort Sleep mode operates by increasing or decreasing the air conditioner's temperature by 1°C/2 hours (up to 2°C maximum). When activated, Toshiba air conditioners will automatically adjust the temperature to align with the natural biological rhythms of humans. Each hour, the air conditioner will adjust the temperature by increasing 0.5°C for 4 hours and then decreasing 0.5°C per hour for the next 4 hours, corresponding to an 8-hour sleep cycle.
The Sleep mode is integrated with a customizable timer (0.5 hours, 1, 2, 3,...9 hours). However, you can still cancel it by pressing the SLEEP button again when the sleep timer function is set to 0.0 hours.
When the Sleep mode is active, for the first 3 hours, the temperature will automatically decrease by 2°C compared to the set temperature. In the subsequent hours, the temperature will be increased by 1°C compared to the set temperature.
The Sleep Timer Start mode will automatically adjust the temperature to optimize sleep by increasing or decreasing 1°C every 30 minutes until the room temperature increases or decreases by up to 2°C to match the body heat in each sleep stage, helping you have a good night's sleep. This mode is suitable for families with young children and the elderly to better care for their sleep.
