how to pick air conditioner size

Now that the temperature is rising, the thought of installing an air conditioner in the home is one that many of us can relate to. Before making a purchase though, it’s important to be aware of the size you’ll need.

When the time comes to choose the right air conditioner for your space, there are some components to bear in mind. The foremost is the total area of the room you need to chill. Most air conditioners are rated based on their British Thermal Unit (BTU) capacity. A BTU signifies a measure of heat.

A 500-square-foot room requires an air conditioner that produces 10,000 British Thermal Units (BTUs) to offer adequate cooling. To find out how many BTUs are necessary to cool your specific area, use an online calculator – it’s the simplest way to calculate your needs.

Is your residence properly insulated? If it is, you can get by with a less powerful air conditioner to keep the same area inside the dwelling cool. In comparison, an inadequately insulated home requires a bigger unit to cool the space.

In the end, you should take into consideration the quantity of individuals and animals that will be inhabiting the area. The more individuals and animals in the vicinity, the more BTUs will be necessary to chill out the space.

Knowing the amount of BTUs required for your room size, you can now get shopping. Compare the BTUs of different A/C units to get the one that is right for you.
