Best AC Under 30000 in India 2019 (1.5 Ton Split & Window)

TOP 10 Best AC Under 30000 in India 2019 (1.5 Ton Split & Window)

Summer season is here and a lot of people are looking for a nice air conditioner for their home or office. In this article, we take a look at our list of top 10 best AC under 30000 available in India as of June 2019. Top split and window air conditioners from brands like LG, Voltas, Hitachi, Carrier, Whirlpool have been listed.

At a price of under Rs. 30000, you can expect to get a window air conditioner of 1.5-ton capacity and split AC of 1 to 1.5 ton capacity of normal or inverter type.

We have added copper coil condenser air conditioners as they require low maintenance and provide great cooling and good power efficiency. The energy efficiency BEE star rating is 3 stars or 5 stars. 5 star rated air conditioners are more power efficient but they cost more. If you are going to use your AC at night only, then getting a 3 star rated air conditioner is fine because recovering the initial extra money paid for a 5 star will take 3-6 years which is not worth it.

The important thing you should consider before buying a window or split ac is the size of the room. If the room size is around 100 sq. ft. then go for an AC of around 1-ton capacity. If your room area is around 150 sq. feet then go for an air conditioner of capacity around 1.5 ton. You will see both 1 ton and 1.5-ton ACs on this list and they are priced between Rs. 25000 and 30000.

Now let's take a look at the review, specs, pros cons of best AC under 30000 in India.
