Is 12,000 BTU the right size?
ENERGY STAR's room air conditioner sizing chart matches 12,000 BTU to a space of 450 to 550 sq ft. Adjust that starting point for the room: about 10% more capacity if it is very sunny, 10% less if it is heavily shaded, 600 BTU more for each person beyond two who regularly uses it, and 4,000 BTU more in a kitchen. A load calculation (ACCA Manual J) by a licensed HVAC contractor gives the final number.
This unit runs on 115V power; the same 12,000 BTU size also comes in a 230V version, so choose by the circuit your panel can supply. Your electrician confirms the circuit and breaker it needs from the installation manual.
Efficiency: 23 SEER2. The highest in the Aurus Star series is 24 SEER2, on the 12,000 BTU 230V unit. A higher SEER2 means less electricity for the same cooling over a season.
