To improve energy efficiency, set your thermostat to a moderate temperature and avoid drastic changes. Clean or replace filters regularly, and ensure doors and windows are sealed to prevent warm air from entering. Consider using a programmable thermostat to control temperature settings efficiently throughout the day. Installing blinds or curtains can also help keep rooms cool, reducing the load on your air conditioner. Proper maintenance and servicing are essential for keeping your unit running efficiently and saving on energy costs.

The size of the air conditioner you need depends on the area you want to cool. Measure the room's square footage and consider factors like ceiling height, insulation, and windows. As a general rule, larger spaces require higher-capacity units. An undersized unit will struggle to cool effectively, while an oversized one may cycle on and off frequently, wasting energy. An HVAC professional can perform a load calculation to determine the best size for your space, ensuring optimal performance and energy efficiency.

A split system air conditioner consists of an indoor and an outdoor unit connected by refrigerant pipes. The indoor unit blows warm air over cold evaporator coils, where refrigerant absorbs the heat, cooling the air. The cooled air is then circulated back into the room. The outdoor unit releases the absorbed heat to the outside air through condenser coils. This system is efficient for cooling single rooms or zones, offering quiet operation and allowing control over specific areas.
