As the summers approach, the thoughts of sweltering days and sweaty nights make everyone rush to resolve their air conditioning woes. Inverter air conditioners have become a staple in all households as a cost-effective and convenient solution to heating problems. However, while Inverter AC’s is the answer, how does one know the right questions to ask when buying one?In this guide, we will take you through all the steps and the factors that you need to consider before finalizing your air conditioners.

 

 

Questions You Need to Ask

Let us first take into account all the questions that you will need to ask yourself before starting your search for the right air conditioner.

1. What type of air conditioner will suit your space and your needs the best?

2. How much will the addition of an air conditioner cost me monthly/annually?

3. What is the size of my room and which capacity will suit best?

4. Which brand takes all of my needs into consideration?

    Things to Consider

    Before you go looking out for the best fit, there are some things that you need to calculate and evaluate your own space to know what to look for. You need to decide where the indoor and the outdoor units will be placed because the location of the units is very important. Assure that your outdoor unit is kept away from debris and plants and the indoor unit is installed at the right position for it to cool quickly.

    Another variable with air conditioners is your specific environment and the location of your house. If you live in a location with high humidity, you need to ensure that the additional features of your air conditioner include humidifiers and air cleaning as well. Some of the other things you need to consider are:

    How much space do you want the particular air conditioner to cool?

    Decide upon the room you want to be cooled, its dimensions and all the nook and crannies in the space. Let us suppose you are looking for an air conditioner for your bedroom, you need to make sure that the space is well insulated and also, if there are smaller spaces like open closets or sitting rooms attached to the bedroom. These spaces will also be taken into account when you calculate the total space that you want cooled.

    Location and the Environment Around your Home

    Many external factors impact the air conditioning capacity of your house. You need to take note of your environment to see if you live in a house that is under direct sunlight or if it is surrounded by trees that provide shade? If your house is situated in the mountains or if you live in dry, arid deserts? All these factors play a crucial role on the kind of air conditioners that you end up choosing.

    Financial Costs

    This one facet is what most of us think of when we go out to buy an air conditioner or even if we buy an air conditioner online. The inverter AC price in Pakistan is a good measure to see if you can afford the unit you decide upon, but there are numerous other things to think about. You may decide to buy a non-inverter AC because it costs low but you should also think about what you will be saving monthly in terms of your electricity consumption and energy saving of the air conditioner.

    Take a Close Look at the Warranty

    Compressor and service warranties are as important as the model or brand you choose. Your best option would be a brand like Orient Electronics that offers lifetime service warranty along with three years of compressor warranty, more than any other Electronics company in Pakistan.

    Some Shopping Tips

    You might inspect the features but not really know what they mean or even if you do, there are quite a few that you probably wont even consider in an air conditioner. Here are some of the essential shopping tips to help you out:

    • BTU’s

    BTU’s stand for British Thermal Units per Hour. The cooling or heating capacity of an air conditioner are measured in BTU’s. You should consider both when looking at different models. If you need to know the right capacity for your room, multiply the square footage of your room by 10 and then add 4000. You’ll have the estimated BTU’s figure that you will need for optimum cooling.

    • Energy Efficiency

    An air conditioner’s energy efficiency can be estimated through the SEER rating of the unit. SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio and as the name indicates, it applies to both the heating and the cooling operation of your air conditioner.

    • Filters & Coil

    The material of both the filters and the coil are important to the cooling or heating ratios. Orient Electronics provide pure copper coil as well as electrostatic filters that make their air conditioners durable, reliable and far more efficient.

    • After Sales Services

    Air conditioners have numerous mechanical and electrical complications inside one small unit which means that they require regular service and maintenance, preferably by trained professionals. So, when you buy a 1 or 1.5 ton inverter ac in Pakistan, always inquire about the after sales services and any additional costs that you might incur because of them.

    If you keep all these points, along with the usual inverter ac price in Pakistan, in your mind, we guarantee that you will end up with a unit that not just satisfies you but also keeps you set for a long time!
