Mini-splits are a great alternative to traditional air conditioning systems. They offer improved energy efficiency, better temperature control, and lower installation costs. Plus, they provide a stylish look. The first thing to consider when buying a mini split is the size of the room it will be placed in. Several online calculation tools measure a mini split required tonnage (or cooling capacity) based on room size. But the easiest method is to multiply the length and breadth of a room (in feet), take the square root of the result, and divide it by 10.
Alternatively, you may calculate the room's volume (in cubic feet) and divide it by 1000 to get how many tons of AC you need for effective cooling. Along with room size, other considerations include window location and the amount of sun-facing walls.
Most people will likely acquire ACs between 1 and 1.5 tons for household usage when considering average room size. The larger 2 to 5-ton ACs are required for workplaces and commercial environments.
A 1-ton mini split can cool an area up to 100 square feet, a 1.5 ton can cool a space up to 180 square feet, and a 2-ton mini split can cool up to 240 square feet, according to the rule of thumb.

The efficiency of an air conditioner's cooling is indicated by its Seasonal Energy Efficiency Rating, or SEER rating, which ranges from 1 to 5 on the energy star scale.
The SEER is the ratio of the power input (in watts) to the cooling capability (measured in British thermal units, or BTU per hour). The SEER rating determines how well a unit cools while using less energy. However, the price of a mini split increases with the number of stars in its SEER rating.
The size of the area that has to be heated or cooled can also influence the micro split system's BTU rating. For instance, a 1,000 Sq Ft space will need 12,000 BTUs, whereas a bigger 1,200 SQ Ft area could need 18,000 BTUs. It's crucial to pick a micro split system whose BTU rating is suitable for the area that has to be heated or cooled.
When choosing a micro split system, it's also critical to consider its efficiency rating. A higher SEER rating, which stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio, denotes, for instance, that the system will consume less energy and hence be less expensive to operate. A higher HSPF rating, or Heating Seasonal Performance Factor, indicates that the system will use less energy to heat the area, reducing winter energy expenses.
