110 volt air conditioner or 220 air conditioner?

If you are about to purchase a window unit, the answer depends on a few factors: 110/115/120 volt units are generally not available in the larger cooling capacity sizes. If you need to cool one average sized bedroom and have a 110 outlet near a window, this should do the trick, and you won't need an electrician to install new wires. If you need to cool an entire house, then you are going to need a 220/240 volt unit or multiple 110 volt units. If you are talking about a central system, then the furnas, or indoor section will most likely be 110 volt and the outdoor unit 220 and you will need to have it professionally installed anyway.
