How to choose the right air conditioner People from the Consumer Protection Committee give advice

As the weather gets hotter, air conditioners are beginning to sell well. Faced with the various types and multi-functional air conditioners on the market, how should I choose a satisfactory and suitable air conditioner? In this regard, Yu Leimin, deputy secretary-general of Ningbo Consumer Rights Protection Committee, said that the following five aspects must be grasped.

First, the size of the room is different, and the number of horses required to buy the air conditioner is different. Generally, a room within 16 square meters uses 1 air conditioner, 20-25 square meters use 1.5 horses, 25-35 square meters use 2 horses, 35～ 2.5 horses are used for 40 square meters. Due to differences in the orientation and floor of the room where the air conditioner is used, including the number of occupants and electrical equipment, one should buy a large air conditioner rather than a small one.

　　Secondly, it is most suitable to buy air conditioners in May. The hot summer is the peak season for using air conditioners, but it is not the best time to buy air conditioners. In June and July of each year, various air-conditioning manufacturers are often at full capacity, transportation vehicles and installers are far from meeting market demand, which can easily lead to untimely installation and after-sales service. In previous years, the peak of consumer dispute complaints often occurred in summer. It is recommended that everyone prepare as much as possible in advance to avoid the peak period. May is the best time to buy. The warm-up promotions of various manufacturers have already started. At this stage, buying air conditioners is not only affordable, but also convenient after-sales service.

　　 Third, only buy the right ones, not expensive ones. New products in the air conditioner market have emerged one after another, and various multifunctional air conditioners have also surfaced, such as oxygen bar, negative ion, nano and other healthy air conditioners. When manufacturers promote these new products, they will be exaggerated. There is no lack of moisture in various functions. In fact, as an air conditioner product, its biggest use is cooling and heating. Multifunctional air conditioners are generally more expensive than ordinary air conditioners in terms of price. When purchasing, users must consider their actual needs, not necessarily buying expensive ones, but buying ones that suit them.

　　 Fourth, attach importance to certification marks. At present, there are two compulsory certification marks for air-conditioning products: one is the "3C mark" and the other is the "energy efficiency mark". The energy efficiency ratio included is divided into five levels, with the highest level and the lowest level five. When purchasing an air conditioner, users should focus on these two signs, check the product manual during inspection, and try to choose the latest production date.

　　 Fifth, try not to be fooled by low profit-making activities and price concessions. Choose to buy on a regular website or a reputable shopping mall, and keep the relevant vouchers, so that the quality of the goods is guaranteed and the rights and interests of consumers can be protected to the utmost.
