Choosing a 12 000 BTU aircon
A 12 000 BTU air conditioner gives about 3.5 kW of cooling, enough for a room of up to about 25 m² in average conditions. Choose a bigger size if the room gets strong afternoon sun, has a high ceiling or a lot of glass, or is a kitchen. Not sure? Use our aircon size guide.

How much does a 12 000 BTU aircon cost in South Africa?
At Aircons Online, 12 000 BTU units currently cost from R6,205 to R33,900 for the indoor and outdoor unit, with inverter models from R7,910. Shipping, delivery and installation are quoted separately.
How much electricity does a 12 000 BTU aircon use?
At full output a 12 000 BTU unit draws roughly 1.1 kW of electricity. An inverter slows down once the room has cooled, so over a day it usually uses much less than that, and less than a fixed-speed unit of the same size. The exact power input is on each model’s specification sheet.
