Do Air Conditioners Love Shade?

Is your air conditioner better off being in the shade or does it really not mind roasting in the sun all day? There's a lot of debate on whether putting an air conditioner in a shady spot makes any difference in efficiency and electricity consumption or not. I decided to dig into this and see for myself what the truth really is. It seems like the professionals tend to agree that shade makes no difference at all whereas homeowners that tried it both ways claim that having the AC in the shade actually makes the unit run less and cool down the house a little faster. Which in turn lowers the electric bill as well. In my opinion, there is no hard evidence to support either side but personally I side with those homeowners and agree that putting your air conditioner in the shade if possible is a good idea. Especially if you live in a hot climate. At the very least you get to be in the shade while working on it if it ever breaks down.
