Question : What kind of air conditioning unit do I need for a 500sq.foot room with 12′ ceilings?
hello friends,

I am opening up a small store and I need to put a ductless air-con unit in there.
The space is 500 square feet, 12 foot ceilings, with a flat roof on top, concrete floors and brick walls. I also have a few appliances in the store that will give off a little heat.

I’ve been talking to air cond people and getting recommendations for all kinds of units. Some say I have to use a commercial unit, some say I can get away with a high powered residential unit.

I’d like to keep my costs down, so i’m trying to figure out a way to keep the store cool without spending a fortune. I’m thinking about using ceiling fans along with an air con…

Any help would be MUCH appreciated.

thanks!
commercial ceiling fans

While you’re shopping, take a good look at the energy efficiency ratings on the different units. Keep in mind that over time, you’re probably going to spend more powering the unit than you will buying the unit. Spending a little more up front could end up saving you a lot of money down the road.
