    Ok lang 1hp even on small room para hindi hirap, few minutes lang lamig agad. Go for 1hp sa konting diprensya.

    wag kayo gagamit ng EXACT size inverter AC. baka full load lagi compressor, sayang lang. ideally oversize dapat by .5 to 1hp. bibilis sya palamig then yung pag maintain ng temp nasa 20-50% lang ng compressor magagamit.
    case in point my room is about 10 sq mtr only, used to pay 4-5k using .75 hp panasonic non-inverter; replaced it with 1hp fujidenzo inverter, immediately went down to below 3k average (went as low as 2.4k pa nga eh). upgraded to 1.5hp kolin inverter, average is now in low 2k, plus 14-20 hour average (iba sked namin ni gf minsan) and 24/7 pa during weekends vs 10 -14 hours noon non inverter pa ang gamit.
    i cant use current reading as a benchmark kasi sobrang baba na dahil bihira kami nasa bahay recently, so sobrang baba na talaga.

    Buti nabasa ko to. I was considering a less 1hp ac since mura lang at bihira gagamitin. But now im having second thoughts na.

    Panasonic and LG have 0.5 and 0.75 HP models afaik.
    May need pa naman mga <1HP AC models esp sa mga maliliit na rooms mas lalo sa mga condo. We had a 0.5HP for a 6 sqm bedroom sa condo and worked great.[emoji16]

    I don't believe yun mga less than 1 HP na aircon. Minimum dalap is 1 HP na agad. Ewan ko ba bakit pa sila gumawa ng less than 1 HP. Parang nakakaloko.

    Baka nga yun mga 1 HP ngayon hinde a rin talaga 1 eh.

    yun .5hp sa previous apartment ko. ideal location since wala direct sunlight and less 10 sq room, so OK lang sya gamitin.
    pag walang AC na under 10k, baka malugi meralco nyan LOL

    nung araw pinakamaliit ang 1.5hp a/c nakagisnan ko ang bibigat pa. kelan na lang naglabasan mga sinasabing below 1hp. ganun din halos 1000 watts din tapos ang tagal magpalamig.

    i have a couple of 0.75 hp aircons in the house. they work fine naman. but the rooms (15-20 sqm) are not in direct sunlight.
    if with direct sunlight, hot ceiling, or heavy traffic, i'd at least double the hp.

    Agree. A 0.8 hp will work in my room but I'm getting 1 hp. A 1.5 hp will work in my living toom but I'm getting 2 hp.

    Medyo masakit yung 1.5 to 2 hp because there's 10k difference between the two (since it's really closer to 1.33 hp than 1.5) but in the long run it's better in terms of consumption.

    When computing for aircon size, consider all heat generators in the room - kitchen appliances (ref, stove, etc), TV, ambient sunlight from wall-to-ceiling windows or sliding doors, and of course extra people.

    isa pa yan bro na winawalambahala ng mga nagbebenta ng AC sa ibang stores. pag na assess nila na .5hp AC lang kaya bilhin ng buyer, bebentahan parin knowing that it wont be enough for a 15 sq meter room with all family members in the same room. pag madalas ka dumadaan sa mga stores na ito, makaka tyempo ka talaga ng "sales talk" LOL

    The best way to convince someone to get a window type air conditioner is to let them buy a split type air conditioner ...

    Basta ako personal experience ko mas okay split type. We used to be all window-type before. Ngayon isa nalang yung window type namin, nasira pa. So now I have to buy 3 aircons instead of just 2. [emoji23]

    Super mas tahimik when I switched from window to split. Also the aesthetics of the room, sobrang mas malinis tingnan.

    Never naging bothersome for me maintenance. Tagal na rin naming naka-split type sa bahay and never ko naexperience yung mga hassle na sinasabi dito. Kaya nga kung first-hand experience ang best basis, ok na ok ako sa split type.

    Mukhang me bad experience si travajante sa split type.. Well look for good installer and invest on good quality foam insulation sa piping.. Use 1" size pipe as drain pipe. Importante kung maiiwasan yung mahabang linya.. Tama ka mas malapit yung blower sa condenser mas maganda [emoji16]
