hello. sa sobrang init ngayon my family back in Philippines is considering to buy an air conditioner mukhang yung General Electric 0.5 HP ang bargain.. It only costs 8,800 pesos. ang gusto ko sana is yung panasonic na 0.6 or 0.8 HP because sa pagkaka-alam ko mas available ang parts..

ano ba ang feedback ninyo sa general electric na room air conditioner? ..

matipid 'yung mga inverter technology. pero mahal pa sa ngayon.

pagdating sa parts, marami talaga ang National at Panasonic. pero kahit anong aircon naman basta naalagaan ng linis tatagal din.

sabi ng naglilinis ng aircon sa amin, maninipis na raw ang evaporator and condeser coil ng aircon binebenta ngayon dito sa philippines, at made in china na raw karamihan ng compressor, yung 1 hp raw ngayon parang 3/4 na lang daw, kasi nga dinadaya na raw, kaya mas mabagal na raw lumamig, at yung mga casing ngayon sobra raw manipis at madaling mag rust.

should check first the size of room kung saan install yung aircon, at kung ilan ang tao na nasa room, and also consider the location of the aircon unit, di dapat tutok sa araw, bale kasi kung masyado mababa ang horsepower ng aircon mo, mabubogbog ang compressor sa pagpalamig ng room, at hindi rin tatagal yung aircon, malaki pa consumo sa kuryente,

sa bahay sanyo ang aircon namin 0.5 hp pero old model pa 10 years na rin, di pa ito nasisira, bilib yung naglilinis ng aircon kasi japan pa raw compressor, at makapal ang evaporator and condenser coil. although recommended nya yung mga surplus japan, kaya nga lang 110vac, at swertihan din daw kung me makukuha pa na di pa laspag yung unit. kung me mabibili na sanyo aircon japan na brand new mas ok, me ref din ang nanay ko na sanyo 40 years old na hangang ngayon lumalamig pa, yung mga plastic lang sa loob at magnet ang bumibigay,  yung mga sanyo daw ngayon china na raw ang compressor.

i should go for the manual basta me thermostat, pareho lang naman yun sa remote kasi automatic nya off  yung compressor kung na reach na yung desired temperature, convenience lang sa remote eh di ka na pupunta sa aircon para i off o adjust yung thermostat.

mas malaki kasi ang production quantity ng imported brands kaya mas mura nila nakukuha 'yung raw materials.

para mas madali ka makapili use this table Wink to avoid undersized


Area of Room

The amount of cooling required depends on the area of the room. To calculate the area in square metres:

Room Area BTU = Length (m) x Width (m) x 337

Window Size and Position

If, your room has no windows, you can ignore this part of the calculation. If, however there are windows you need to take the size and orientation into account.


South Window BTU = South Facing window Length (m) x Width (m) x 870
North Window BTU = North Facing windows Length (m) x Width (m) x 165
If there are no blinds on the windows multiply the result(s) by 1.5.
Add together all the BTUs for the windows.

Windows BTU = South Window(s) BTU + North Window(s) BTU

Occupants

You will have to take that into account people who normally working in the space. The heat output is around 400 BTU per person.

Total Occupant BTU = Number of occupants x 400

Equipment


Clearly most heat in a room is generated by the equipment. This is trickier to calculate that you might think. The wattage on equipment is the maximum power consumption rating, the actual power consumed may be less. However it is probably safer to overestimate the wattage than underestimate it.


Equipment BTU = Total wattage for all equipment x 3.5

Lighting

Take the total wattage of the lighting and multiply by 4.25.


Lighting BTU = Total wattage for all lighting x 4.25

Total Cooling Required

Add all the BTUs together.

Total Heat Load = Room Area BTU + Windows BTU + Total Occupant BTU + Equipment BTU + Lighting BTU

you need to concider all of this before you buy an air conditioning unit
to avoid undersize of ACU VS Heat Load

mas malaki kasi ang production quantity ng imported brands kaya mas mura nila nakukuha 'yung raw materials.

tama hindi lang naman aircon ang galing sa China. And practically mas mura ang import than dito gagawin.
Ang maganda sa mga company na may production dito they can alter, modify the unit depending their desired appearance and operation.

May mga mangilan ngilan na production dito sa Pinas like Carrier and Koppel
