Air Conditioners are a necessity in the Indian region when summers arrive as temperatures can go as high as 47-degrees in some parts of the nation. And an air conditioning unit not only maintains the right level of moisture and temperature, but they also improve air quality. Air conditioners circulate filtered, clean air into a property.
There are various types of ACs such as a Split AC, a Window AC or a centralized one. Window ACs and Split ACs are mostly used in households but the former has some advantages over the latter. Window ACs are usually more energy efficient than Split ones and they are cheaper than Split ACs. So here are some of the top 1.5 Ton Window ACs that you can buy during the Summer season to beat the heat.
