Do you have a small house and think installing air conditioning might be complicated?
👉 Or worse… are you afraid of spending money and the unit not working as it should?
Relax!
With the right planning, it's entirely possible to have thermal comfort without wasting space and without surprises on your electricity bill.
In this video, you'll discover how to choose and install the ideal air conditioner for small spaces.
📏 1. Ideal Capacity: How Many BTUs to Choose?
This is the most common mistake…
Choosing an air conditioner without calculating the correct power.
👉 Capacity is measured in BTUs — and needs to be appropriate for the environment.
Consider:
✔️ Room size
✔️ Number of windows
✔️ Sunlight exposure
✔️ Number of people in the room
⚠️ Too powerful = unnecessary energy consumption
⚠️ Too weak = doesn't cool properly
💡 The secret is balance.

For small houses, some models stand out:
✔️ Split (most recommended)
Takes up little space
Quieter
Better energy efficiency
✔️ Portable
Easy to install
Ideal for those who don't want construction work
Can be moved to other rooms
✔️ Window
Simplest option
Recommended when there is already an opening
👉 Each model meets a different need.
📍 3. Best Place to Install
The appliance's position makes all the difference.
✔️ Install it on the highest part of the wall
✔️ Allow air to circulate freely
✔️ Avoid locations with excessive heat (stove, direct sunlight)
✔️ Do not block the air outlet with furniture or curtains
👉 Incorrect positioning can greatly reduce efficiency.
⚡ 4. Energy Saving: How to Spend Less
Nobody wants a high electricity bill, right?
👉 So pay attention:
✔️ Prefer appliances with the Procel A seal
✔️ Invest in inverter technology
✔️ Use curtains to block the sun
✔️ Improve the room's insulation
💡 The less effort the appliance makes… the less you pay.
