There are two measures used to describe the cooling capacity of an air conditioner. One is BTU or 'British Thermal Unit' but that is the old way of doing it. The modern way is the Kw or Kilowatt of cooling. to get BTU you have to multiply Kw by 3412. A small air conditioner for maybe one person in a little office might be 9000 BTU or 2.6 kW, a large industrial air conditioner for a bigger area might be 35,000 BTU or 10.26 kW.

Why is there humidity in the room when air conditioner is cooling? Room feels damp.
In what year was the air conditioner first invented?
In 1902 Willis H Carrier invented the modern air conditioner.
How does the air conditioner work?
the air conditioning cycle
How much does an air conditioner capacitor cost?
$30
Can a start capacitor blow out an air conditioner compressor?
Not likely
Where can you buy a capacitor for air conditioner unit?
Air conditioner capacitors may be purchased from appliance-parts retailers. There are many with web sites.
Can a larger capacitor be used in an air conditioner?
Function of Capacitor in Air Conditioner:Compressor Motor Capacitor: This air conditioning capacitor usually consists of two capacitors that are combined. This vital capacitor gets the motor running in the air conditioning unit.Start Capacitor: This capacitor provides auxiliary support and that is not a standard on every air conditioning unit. It can give the motor a boost to get it started.Indoor Blower Motor Capacitor: This capacitor is self-explanatory. It is responsible for starting the indoor-blower-motor and keeping it running efficiently.Outdoor Fan Motor Capacitor: The name says it all for this capacitor. It starts the outdoor fan and keeps the air flowing through the coils that run on the outside of an air conditioner.
Why is my air conditioner fan hot and humming?
you don't say if it is turning. ??? Replace the starting capacitor.
What is the reason for a sluggish air conditioner fan?
It could be that the capacitor is going bad or the bearings in the motor.
Can Power going off and on damage air conditioner?
Yes. Can blow capacitor, contactor or ground compressor.
How much should a capacitor cost for a 5 ton amana air conditioner?
on a holiday weekend - $229.
How do you differentiate a start capacitor from a run capacitor in air conditioner?
If the air conditioner has both, the run capacitor is likely the largest one. The start capacitor will only be in the circuit for a very short time, so overheating doesn't become an issue. The run capacitor must be sized for continual use.
How does a central air conditioner compressor act when the capacitor burns out?
the capacitor starts the compressor generally if it don t work the compressor usually won t start
Central air conditioner not blowing air?
Depending on the make and model of the air conditioner. It is probably your blower motor. There are two, possibly three items to consider. The motor, the start capacitor and the run capacitor. Some systems will have just the motor and the start capacitor. Some have just the motor and the run capacitor. Usually (not always) the capacitor will show physical signs of failure. Burned terminals, swelling or white stuff coming out of the top. Expect to pay $30 for the capacitors and several hundred for a new blower motor.
Outside air conditioner fan freezes up?
Bad condensing fan capacitor or bad bearings on fan motor.
