What is a 18000 btu air conditioner?
Split air conditioners are sized in BTU per hour, with common sizes of 12000, 18000 and 36000 BTU. The outdoor unit sits on a wall bracket or stand, and copper pipes, insulation and drain connect it to the indoor unit.
The right size depends on the room, sun, people and equipment. Therefore, a site survey is the best way to choose capacity.
