This is really an amazing product. Here is a short list of reasons why I chose this product:1. Carrier is a trustworthy company.2. This a/c has 100% copper condensor which is better than an aluminum condensor for so many different reasons.3. It has been given 5 stars in terms of electricity consumption, which means that it consumes less electricity.I wasn't very sure about my decision at the time of ordering, but after using it for almost 20 days, I can definitely say that I made the right choice.

From my personal experience of buying an AC I know ...

From my personal experience of buying an AC I know that I was mostly looking to save the recurrent cost, and I was open to buy anything that will save me money in the long run. Which is why I have made this table below of the maximum Power Consumption (and averaging across various brands and ACs) of Different type of ACs available in the market. There might be a few outliers here and there but the below average is from 1000s of samples. Please read the notes below for my observation based on the below table.1 Ton Window AC :3 Star : 1050 - 1150 Watts5 Star : 1000 - 1100 Watts1 Ton Split AC (The evaporator/indoor unit power consumption is very less, so only compressor power is considered) :3 Star : 1050 - 1150 Watts5 Star : 1000 - 1100 Watts1.5 Ton Window AC :2 Star : More than 1750 Watts3 Star : 1550 - 1700 Watts5 Star : 1450 - 1550 Watts1.5 Ton Split AC (The evaporator/indoor unit power consumption is very less, so only compressor power is considered) :2 Star : More than 1700 Watts3 Star : 1550 - 1650 Watts5 Star : 1400 - 1450 WattsAs a very rough calculation, I will say every extra 200 Watts running for 5 hours (compressor run time, not AC) will cost you an extra Rs.200 per month. For example an AC running at 1400 Watts will have a lower bill of Rs. 200 than an AC running at 1600 Watts if they both run for 5 hours daily. Ofcourse there are other variables in the calculation as well.Observational Notes :1) There is not enough saving between 3 Star & 5 Star rating ACs to save a huge amount of money IMO.2) If Possible going for a lesser tonnage AC, will save a decent amount of money in the monthly bill.3) Ofcourse second step also includes finding the Cooling Wattage of the AC, so just to add Stars awarded are based on the cooling capacity wattage divided by power consumption wattage, which gives EER of a unit.4) There is not much difference between Split and Window AC as far as saving electricity bills is concerned.5) Inverter ACs are a different beast and none of the above points apply to Inverter AC.Breaking Down specs of the specific AC :Point 1 : 1436 Watts Copper Compressor, which is one of the lowest wattage compressor for a 1.5 Ton AC.Point 2 : Cooling Capacity not mentioned, hence we can only go by Energy rating of 5 Stars.Point 3 : R22 Coolant, which is HCFC and causes Ozone Depletion. However is very readily available for refilling.Point 4 : Brand Name of carrier, which definitely makes some of the longest lasting compressors around.Just to add a bit about the particular AC, it has good EER based on which stars are awarded. This AC with its very decent cooling capacity and one of the lowest wattage compressor around which will save you quite a big chunk of money monthly depending upon your usage. However all this comes at a huge initial payment. Personally for all the positives just because of the price I would have skipped this AC.

Very nice A/CCools instantly.One needs to check the dimensions of the compressor since it is cylindrical.I had to do few changes in the window exterior grill so as to accommodate the outdoor unit.Overall a very good product,good price offered by Amazon and prompt delivery/installation.Thanks.
