it's important to choose an air conditioner that has a high Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) to minimize energy consumption and reduce your energy bills.

You're the first one in this thread to mention efficiency as reported in EER or SEER

@stament

Shop for higher SEER units, preferably rated at more than SEER 22 and displaying 5★★★ EGAT label.

They're generally more expensive to buy but will pay for themselves in electricity savings over the long run.

Unless you're on solar then it doesn't matter.

Also the other high quality brand that I haven't seen mentioned here is Fujitsu.

They have some very efficient models, which I think are called Fujitsu imax.

We have a 13k in the bedroom, 23m², and could easily get by with 9k BTU unit.  House good build material, insulated block & roof/ceiling.

Room insulation and window orientation are super important.

Generic calculators are not designed to factor in those important variables.
