Which AC unit uses the least energy?


ENERGY STAR Certified Room Air Conditioners

Many people buy an air conditioner that is too large, thinking it will provide better cooling. However, an oversized air conditioner is actually less effective - and wastes energy at the same time. Determine the square footage of the area you'd like to cool by using the ENERGY STAR square footage and this chart. Remember that bigger is not always better!

Many AC units have an EER in the 9's. These are just a little bit better.
