Discover the best air-conditioner for your comfort and cooling needs

Discover the best air-conditioner for your comfort and cooling needs

In the Philippines, June is a season of unpredictability. One minute, it’s hot and humid; the next finds you amidst a downpour. That sticky, in-between weather can be uncomfortable, and even more so without the right cooling system at home.

Thankfully, Midea, the World’s No. 1 Residential Inverter Airconditioner Company, offers a wide range of energy-efficient inverter air-conditioners to suit every lifestyle. If you are looking for a new inverter AC, keep reading to find out more useful information to help guide your decision. 

First Consideration: Room Size

The first, and most important consideration when choosing an air-conditioning unit is knowing the size of the room where it will be installed. As a general rule, the bigger the room, the higher HP unit it needs to cool it down. 

To give you an idea of what to look for, a 1.0HP AC is sufficient for rooms between 15-18 sqm. For larger rooms, simply go up half a horsepower (HP) for each 5-10 sqm increase in room size. 

Second Consideration: Type of Unit (Window vs Split)

The second consideration is the type of air-conditioning unit. For people with limited space, a window-type unit is the best choice. It takes up little room, is easy to install, and can easily cool a single enclosed space. Window-type units also tend to be more affordable, which is perfect for those on a budget.

The 1.0HP Midea Qube is ideal for most studio or 1-bedroom condo units. It’s compact, yet powered with inverter technology for extra electricity savings. And with PRIME GUARD HYPER GRAPFINS™, it’s 12.5x more corrosion resistant than blue fins. 

For larger home spaces like a living or dining room, a split-type air-conditioning unit is more ideal. Not only do they have a sleeker, unobtrusive design, they also have larger vents that can produce a higher amount of cool air. 

Split-type units are installed higher up on walls to allow them to cool down large areas faster. Midea has 3 highwall split-type air-conditioners series, all of which deliver powerful cooling and smart modern features.

Let’s start with our entry-level Midea Celest Full DC Inverter Split-Type Series. It brings down the temperature of the room by about 5°C in just 10 minutes, and is available in 1.0HP all the way up to 3.0HP capacities. And thanks to our I-CLEAN technology, this unit is self-cleaning, which minimizes the regular maintenance checks needed to keep it running well. 

It also has PRIME GUARD HYPER GRAPFINS™, making it 12.5x more corrosion resistant than blue fins. For reliable cooling that lasts, choose the Celest!

Meanwhile, the Midea Avigator series is a great pick for those who want smart savings made easy. It features smart control + AI Eco master, which gives you smarter control over your cooling preferences. This feature can unlock up to 40% extra electricity savings. 

The Avigator also provides fast cooling, as its Cool Flash + Turbojet technology lowers a room’s temperature by 6°C in just 10 minutes. Of course, it also has I-CLEAN self-cleaning technology, as well as built-in AIR MAGIC tech that acts as a filter, and cleans the cold air it produces. 

You can find the Avigator in 1HP and up to 3.0HP capacities. The highest-end 3.0 HP model can easily cool down large rooms up to 45 sqm. We recommend this unit for those who value air quality in their rooms, such as parents with young children or people with dust/pollen allergies.

Finally, there’s our top-grade offering: the Midea Airstill Pro, which provides comfort beyond breeze. It delivers a comfortable cooling experience with 3 gentle breeze options: breeze away, breeze mild, and breeze less. 

The Airstill Pro is also one of our quietest AC units. It can operate at only 31.4 dB–the equivalent of a whisper, or rustling leaves. This makes great for those who value minimal noise, such as those with a home office or home theater.

Better yet, this unit also uses our higher grade I-CLEAN+ and AIR MAGIC+ technologies for enhanced self-cleaning and air filtering. So if you want our absolute best residential air conditioning unit, go for the Airstill Pro.
