The hot summer months are here and having an air conditioning system installed at your property is a must. It is the only way to beat the heat and feel fresh, rejuvenated in the oppressive heat. But there are a few considerations that you must take into account before buying your air conditioning system. See here for more information.
Chassis
You have the choice between the altered and the slide-out chassis. The former is used in the window ACs and are the most popular. The slide-out version is a two-unit model and works through a divider sleeve.Â
The BTU
BTU output the limit of the air conditioner’s cooling power. You need to select the right BTU output according to the space you have in mind for installing and cooling. If you go for a higher rating than what you need your room won’t be dehumidified and if you go for a lower rating then you will have high power and utility bills. Most of the air conditioning units provide manufacturer’s instruction about the square footage of area it can optimally cool.
Energy rating
The energy star rating is also listed on the manufacturer’s instruction. Generally, AC units are no less than 10% energy efficient as per the National Government guidelines. When you are buying the split air conditioner, you must pay particular attention to the energy star ratings of the device since a 5000-6000 BTU device can have a tremendous effect on the power bill at the end of every month.
Warranty
This one is a no-brainer. You should ideally select a manufacturer that provides a complete one-year warranty on all the parts of the unit. The warranty should also include the necessary servicing and maintenance for the first year since the date of purchase.
Movable louvers
Go for a model that has oscillating louvers which will better guide the cold air to every part of the room. This results in a better cooling than fixed louver ACs.
Variable fan speed
At least three variable fan speed settings are necessary to control the temperature of the room with the AC switched on.
Digital display
Having a digital display gives you more control and accuracy while trying to set the right temperature for the room. A digital display with remote controlled features is what you should look for while going for a new Air conditioning unit.
Air purifiers
Always go for air conditioners that are easy to clean as far as the channels are concerned. An easily accessible channel is vital for efficient cleaning operations. Also, make sure that the AC is as per the industry standard concerning the air purification unit inside the AC. It is not just about cooling but also the cleanliness of your property.
Quiet mode
Invest in an AC that has a silent mode which will ensure a high-value purchase. Units that offer the solace of soundless performance are an excellent buy in the present-day setting. Nothing should come in between the calm and comfort of when you are trying to rest.
That concludes the list of all that you need to keep in mind before making an AC purchase. All the best!
