Calculation Formula

HP = (Area * Insulation * Temp Difference) / 12,000

Where:
Area is the room area in square feet.
Insulation is a factor from 1 to 5 representing the level of insulation.
Temp Difference is the desired temperature change in degrees Fahrenheit.

How to Use the Calculator

  1. Enter the room area in square feet.
  2. Set the insulation level on a scale from 1 to 5.
  3. Input the desired temperature difference in degrees Fahrenheit.
  4. Click the "Calculate" button to get the required HP for the air conditioner.

Working Principle

The calculator uses the formula HP = (Area * Insulation * Temp Difference) / 12,000 to estimate the required power of an air conditioner. This formula takes into account the size of the room, the level of insulation, and the desired temperature change to provide an appropriate cooling capacity in horsepower (HP).
