The summer often brings high temperatures that sometimes bother us even if we just stand still in the house.

When the temp becomes uncomfortable due to heat, using an air conditioner is one of the most effective ways to create a comfortable and cool home environment.

However, with the many types and brands of air conditioning available on the market, choosing the product that best suits your needs is a challenging task, because the choice of the right air conditioner also has a significant impact on your electricity bill and contribution to the environment.

So, how to choose air conditioner for your home? Take a look at the explanation below!

4 Tips on How to Choose Air Conditioner

1. Room Size

The first tip for choosing an AC is to make sure the PK or BTU of the AC you want to buy.

PK or BTU is a unit for measuring the power capacity offered by an air conditioner that can be adjusted to the size of the room to be cooled.

If the BTU is too small, the air conditioner will have to work extra to cool the room. On the contrary, if the BTU is too big it will also cause excessive electricity bills.

Here’s a guide to determine the PK or BTU for your AC according to your room’s sizes:

• ½ PK (5000 BTU): 10 square meters
• ¾ PK (7000 BTU): 14 square meters
• 1 PK (9000) BTU: 18 square meters
• 1 ½ PK (12000 BTU): 24 square meters
• 2 PK (18000 BTU): 36 square meters

2. Choose the Right Types of AC

The AC type is generally divided into AC inverter and AC non-inverter which refers to compressor speed and energy consumption.

AC inverters have compressors that work at low speeds to reach the desired temperature, while non-inverters have a compressor that operates at maximum capacity so that they can reach the required temperature as quickly as possible.

If you’re looking for an air conditioner with a high level of efficiency and a consistent temperature, then an AC inverter is the right choice. Although it’s more expensive, in the long run this type of air conditioning is more economical and practical.

The non-inverter AC is suitable if you use it not too often or if you do not need a constant temperature all the time. It is even more affordable than the type of AC inverter.

3. Features

Do not forget to check out the additional features offered by the air conditioner. 

Some modern air conditioners are equipped with advanced technologies such as automatic temperature control, humidity control, air filters, and energy monitoring. 

These features can enhance the comfort and efficiency of the AC.

Choose an AC with an easy temperature control system and features energy regulation mode (such as Eco or Energy Saver mode) to optimize energy use and prevent overuse.
