2. Cooling Capacity 

Ensure the AC's cooling capacity matches your room's requirements for efficient cooling.


3. Energy Efficiency

Look for the Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) and Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) ratings. Higher ratings indicate better energy efficiency.

Some ACs require more maintenance than others. Consider the filter cleaning and replacement needs.


8. Warranty

Check the warranty offered by the manufacturer and its duration.


9. Brand and Quality 

Research reputable brands and read reviews to ensure you're buying a reliable and durable AC.


10. Budget 

Set a budget and consider the upfront cost, installation fees, and ongoing energy costs.


By considering these factors, you'll be well-equipped to find the right air conditioner for your needs.
