ISLAMABAD: Inverter ACs have become a popular choice in Pakistan, especially during the summer months, due to their efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and ability to provide reliable and comfortable cooling during extreme heat.
AC inverters are highly beneficial for several reasons with energy efficiency at the top of the charts. They are more energy efficient than traditional AC units. They adjust their compressor speed based on cooling needs, using less power when cooling needs are lower.
They have a higher initial cost than non-inverter units but can save money in the long run due to lower energy consumption.
In Pakistan, where voltage fluctuations are common, some inverter AC models are designed to operate efficiently over a wide voltage range.

1 Ton or 1.5 ton: Which Inverter AC is Best Four You
Choosing between a 1 ton or 1.5 ton inverter AC depends on various factors, including room size, and cooling requirements.
1 Ton AC is suitable for small to medium-sized rooms (up to about 150 square feet or 14 square meters) while 1.5 Ton AC is best choice for medium to large-sized rooms (up to about 250 square feet or 23 square meters).
If your room is large or overheated due to direct sunlight, number of occupants, or electronic devices, a 1.5 ton AC may be more suitable to ensure effective cooling.
