Due to the high temperature in summer, everyone needs AC nowadays. But, do you know how and what to check for before buying an AC? No? It is okay, @DashOnDuty is here to help you choose the right AC and save you from being scammed.
Let us start with some functions to check in AC:
- The capacity of AC: Choosing the right size of AC can be tricky. An oversized AC cools the room faster but consumes a lot of electricity and a small AC takes a longer time to cool the room, also consuming a lot of electricity. Therefore, for better efficiency it is important to pick the right size (i.e. tonnes) AC depending upon the room size.
- Power consumption: ACs with higher star ratings consume less electricity, saving money on your electricity bill in the long run. Most of the AC comes with rating stars such as 1-5, the higher the star, the lesser the electricity.
Other features that varies with different range of ACs:
Ø Anti-bacteria filters and Auto clean functions.
Ø Cooling and Heating feature, that lets you choose according to your need.
Ø Dehumidifier to get rid of excess moisture in air.
Ø Sleep mode that will save you electricity by reducing and increasing temperature according to room temperature.
There are two types of AC:
Window AC:
Ø Easier installation than Split AC.
Ø Ideal for a small room where you have a window.
Ø Can also be used as heaters, most models offer heating features.
Split AC:
Ø Cools down faster.
Ø Makes less noise because the condensers are located outside the room.
Ø Does not require a window, as it can fit against the wall.
As a matter of fact, Window AC costs less than Split AC. However, if we compare overall features, Split AC wins due to many additional benefits. @DashOnDuty provides AC service on demand.
