In many parts of the country the temperature has crossed 50 degrees. In such a situation, if you are thinking of buying a new air conditioner (AC), then this is the right time. Generally customers choose between 1 ton, 1.5 ton or 2 ton capacity ACs.
But do you know that apart from ton capacity, there is another factor which decides the actual performance and power consumption of AC?
Now this thing must be wondering in your mind that apart from the tonnage and energy star of the AC, what is the factor that decides the cooling and electricity consumption? So let us tell you that the third factor in the cooling of AC is its ‘Cooling Capacity’.
What is cooling capacity?
If we understand in simple words, cooling capacity means how quickly and how effectively the AC can cool the room. It is measured in watts or kilowatts (kW). For example, a 1.5 ton AC can have a cooling capacity of up to 5000W. If a brand does not disclose its figures, then understand that it is hiding important information.
Connection of cooling capacity to electricity bill
Don’t take a decision just by looking at the ton.
Keep these things in mind while purchasing. See the specification sheet of the brand.
Be sure to check the cooling capacity in watts.
Try connecting it with EER (Energy Efficiency Ratio).
