Window AC 1.5 ton

[Jonas]

This is for a bedroom and will be used primarily during nights.

I was wondering if spending more on a dual inverter AC would be worth it if the AC was running for about 8 hours in a day.

Any recommendations?

Do you have any issues with ACs needing gas refilling every year after 2-3 years? Voltas used to have a 5 year AMC pack which covers everything so is very useful in those cases.

Dual ones should be fine with cooling. My area sees a normal of 46-47C in the day and have seen people opting for Panasonic, LG's, Daikin.

If you are going to run it only for a season , then going for Dual won't make much sense, although running with dual for 8H will help you with economical energy use, season or not.

I think @Sushubh opted for Daikin, while @mikrotik opted for Voltas.


Most branded AC's will do their job regardless of being Inv or non-inv. What will matter more is the ASS. LG, Voltas are the brands I know who have their own in house support, unlike others who have mostly outsourced to 3rd party agencies.

He is looking for a window AC. The only window AC i have is a really old Hitachi which is still running very well after nearly 12 years. Two Generals that are also running fine after 15 years.

I would probably buy a LG window AC today. But they are quite pricey if you go for the five star variants.

If I remember correctly, my Sharp AC developed a leak after about 5 years. I’ve shifted to a new place, so I will have to check with the neighbors about this.

I have a Voltas split AC which I bought from Cliq and it has a 1+4 years of AMC.

Er... You didn't mention you are looking for a window AC. You should be fine with any of the Japanese brands. O'Geneal, Hitachi, Mitsubishi.

well it is mentioned in the title lol.

Oops... My bad.

Even carrier ac can be considered. My last one worked for more than 15yrs.

Does energy saving go out of the Window when we get a Window AC?
