What size air conditioner do you need?
Here's how to get the right size for your room
- Work out the volume of the room in m3 (width x height x depth) and multiply by 40. This gives you the value for the room in watts.
- For each seated person in the room, add another 150 watts.
- For every average-sized photocopier or PC add 200 watts, and for fax machines add 150 watts.
- You now have the total requirements for the room, in watts. To work out the Kw, divide by 1000 (e.g. 2050 watts = 2.05 Kw).
- South facing windows add 20% to the cooling requirements.
- Now you know what size machine you need, check out the details in our product listing and give us a call to arrange a hire.
Example
| For room size: 4 x 2.5 x 6ms | = | 60 cu. ms |
| Convert to watts x 40 | = | 2400 |
| No. of persons x 1 | = | 150 |
| No. of PCs etc. x 1 | = | 200 |
| Total | = | 2750 watts |
| South facing windows | = | 0 |
| Divide by 1000 | = | 2.75 Kw of cooling required |
| Model PAC10 (Code HA11) | = | 2.9 Kw is suitable |
