Buying The Right Air Conditioner
Buying an air conditioner for your home is a major investment requiring careful consideration of special factors like your cooling requirements, budget, energy efficiency, and greenhouse gas emissions.
Air conditioning units are sold as:
Ducted systems: This air conditioning system will send cool air from a single unit to several rooms in your home using ducts typically constructed near the roof. This is a complicated system that is expensive and requires a professional builder to install it.
Refrigerated system: This air conditioner cools the air in your room using the evaporation effect of a refrigerant liquid in its system. It is the common choice of many households because it functions well in very hot weather and lowers humidity inside homes..
Reverse cycle: This unit can cool or heat your home using just one system, making it ideal for homes that experience seasonal hot and cold temperatures.
Split type system: A split air conditioning system provides cooling comfort using an indoor and outdoor unit at reduced noise levels.. Split type units may cost more than window and wall types but not as much as the complex ducted air conditioning system which entails a separate expense for professional installation..
Evaporative: This cooling system cooling system works by drawing hot air from the outside and turning it into cool air inside your home.. This unit is often sold as a movable appliance that you can easily transport where it is needed. A drawback of this type is that it does not function well in high humidity conditions.
Other factors that can affect your choice of an air conditioner include the following:
Cost of appliance: Ducted and split type units tend to be more expensive and require additional expenses for professional installation while evaporative coolers that are mobile are inexpensive. Additional features like a remote control, digital thermostat and automatic timer can increase the price of a unit so make sure to buy only features that you need.
Energy costs: Total energy consumption is expressed in kilowatts per hour (KWH) while a high star rating means fewer greenhouse gas emissions.. You’re looking for a unit with low KwH and one with a high energy star rating like 4 stars. Between two units bearing the same star rating and different energy consumptions, choose the one with lower KwH for greater energy savings.
Take time to compare the specifications and features of various units before buying an air conditioner to ensure that you are getting the best value for your money.
