Cooling
To figure out which size unit is best for your cooling needs:
1. Determine the square footage of the area to be cooled
- 400-600 square foot needs 12,000 BTU/h (1 ton) of cooling
2. Determine your heat load
- Multiply your wattage by 3.413 to convert to BTU/h.
- 16363(w) x 3.413 = 55847 (BTU/H)
- 55847 (BTU/H) / 12000 = 4.65 tons of cooling
3. Make any adjustments for the following circumstances:
- If the room is heavily shaded, reduce capacity by 10 percent.
- If the room is very sunny, increase capacity by 10 percent.
- If more than two people regularly occupy the room, add 600-1000 BTUs for each additional person.
- Consider where you install the unit. If you are mounting an air conditioner near the corner of a room, look for a unit that can send the airflow in the right direction.
