Buying an air conditioner requires diligence and expertise, as the wrong size or type of air conditioner will be ineffective at cooling your home. First, determine whether you need a portable, room, window, or wall unit. Then, measure the square footage of the room you want to cool to determine how many British Thermal Units (BTUs) are needed. An air conditioning company can help you evaluate the pros and cons of each type of air conditioner, and help you select an AC unit with the ideal number of BTUs.
