IT Desk:   Winter is almost over, it can be said that heat has also arrived. The rising temperature of the sun is a sign of this. Many people have already started using AC. Some will start using AC very soon. Many people are looking to buy a new AC now.

However, before buying an AC, the thing that everyone should keep in mind is how many tons of AC you will buy. Basically, decide how many tons of AC you will buy according to the size of the room. Before that, know what a ton is? Many people think that a ton means weight. Even those who have been using AC for a long time do not know the meaning of a ton.

In AC, ton does not mean weight. The word ton means HVAC. Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning. The word ton means how much it can cool a house in an hour. Simply put, tonnage or ton refers to the cooling capacity of the AC.

The measurement of heat is BTU (British Thermal Unit). A one-ton AC can remove 12,000 BTUs of hot air per hour. A 3-ton unit can remove 36,000 BTUs of hot air. And so on. This means that the more tonnage you have, the faster the air in your room will cool. In simpler terms, a one-ton AC will cool your room as cool as a ton of ice. A two-ton AC will cool your room as cold as two tons of ice.

How many tons of AC will a room need? Here's how: 100-130 square feet - 0.8-1 ton AC, 130-200 square feet - 1.5 ton AC, 250-350 square feet - 2 ton AC. Now, more than one AC will be needed to cool a room larger than 500 square feet or a hall.

In this way, anyone can choose the right ton according to their needs when buying an AC. However, the height of the ceiling, the size of the windows can also affect the cooling capacity of the house. This should also be kept in mind when buying an AC.
