Do you need help in selecting the right size air conditioning unit?

The capacity or size of an air conditioner is rated in kilo Watts per hour, this is the amount of heat that the unit/system can remove from the air conditioned room space per hour. There are a lot of things that need to be considered when calculating the kilo Watt rating (size of the unit) of the air conditioning system that suites your air conditioning needs.

• Area of the space to be conditioned.
• The amount of heat that can enter or leave the space through glass windows, walls and doors.
• Does the area to air conditioned have wall or ceiling insulation, which reduces heat entering?
