With winter giving way to harsh summers in a few months, installing an air conditioner at your home has become a must in these fluctuating weather conditions. Air conditioners basically cool your home by removing the heat present inside the home and then cooling that hot air by blowing it over a coil of cold pipes. This cooled air is then pumped back into the home. If you are looking for best air conditioners available in the market and are confused by the multiple options available in the market, we have compiled a few tips which will help you find the right air conditioner for your home.
3 tips to choose the best air conditioner for your home include:
- Keep your room size in mind when looking at the capacity of the AC.
The first and foremost thing you should check when buying an air conditioner is its capacity. An air conditioner of one tonne is sufficient enough for rooms of size 100-150 sq. meters in area. For bigger rooms, you can go for 1.5 – 2 tonne air conditioner. This calculation is based on the assumption that the number of people occupying the room is not more than five. If you buy an AC of a smaller or bigger capacity than required, your energy efficiency will decrease significantly. You will also have to pay a higher energy bill in case you buy an AC which is of a bigger capacity as compared to the size of the room.
- Buy your air conditioner from a trustable brand and from a reliable retailer.
There are many air conditioner retailers who sell old models which need more service as compared to modern version. They also do not comply with the safety standards and do not provide you with authorized papers of the purchase. Make sure that you purchase your air conditioner from a reliable retailer only who is authorized by the brand to sell the product. The next point to ensure is that you should always buy electrical appliances from trusted brands like carrier, Hitachi, Diakin, Blue Star etc which are world leaders in the field of air conditioning and are known for their energy-efficient models. Check the energy efficiency of the unit you are looking to purchase.
- Check the warranty information and if the company offers after-sales repair and maintenance.
Most people think that once they buy the air conditioner, their job is done. This is a complete myth as checking the warranty offered by the brand and the seller is also very important. Most people do not enquire about the after-sales service offered by the brand so it is better to check for best HVAC companies which offer a good after-sales service and maintenance contract so that your AC keeps providing optimum performance for many years.
So these were some of the tips you should keep in mind when buying a new air conditioner for your home. These tips are easy to follow and help you get the right product which has a good value for money.
