The main criterion by which the selection of an air conditioner is carried out is the area of the room that it will serve. Any air conditioner has its own operating parameters - it is designed to cool the air in a room of a certain area. Thus, the power should be selected based on the criterion of 1 kW for every 10 square meters of area (the height of the ceilings should not exceed three meters).
It is not at all necessary to manually select an air conditioner by area - for this there are special programs that will indicate the optimal parameters of the device for a particular room. Thanks to this software, you can find out about the cooling capacity, the power of the electric motors, the nominal air flow and some other parameters, on the basis of which the selection of the air conditioner can be performed correctly and quickly.
An accurate calculation involves taking into account the amount of office equipment, incoming solar heat, the number of people in the room, isolation or communication with other rooms. All these parameters are taken into accountdirectly when buying a particular model of air conditioner. Please note that the correct selection of air conditioners allows you to set the warranty period.
In addition to the general technical criteria, you should also decide on the design of the device. The monoblock design is already losing its popularity today, while the use of split systems is becoming more common. This is explained primarily by the convenience of installation, because for a long time it was the installation of the air conditioner that was the main problem for buyers. When using split systems, the main source of noise is neutralized, as a result of which the indoor unit can be placed in any part of the room.
When choosing an air conditioner, you can pay attention to the devices that are mounted on the walls. Depending on the power, such an air conditioner can serve a room up to 80 square meters. When more power is required, a cassette or channel system may be a good choice. This technological solution is used in such facilities as office, restaurant, shopping center.
These systems are mounted under suspended ceilings, however, there are options in the form of decorated ceiling blocks. On sale you can also find universal blocks that provide several mounting options. If you need to service a small room, or you may need frequentmoving the air conditioner, consider using a portable air conditioner.
Another solution to the problem of servicing a large number of premises is to purchase a multi-split system. The selection of an air conditioner in this case allows you to purchase a system that will have several indoor units - they can be hung throughout the apartment or across several office rooms.
