1. Central Air Conditioner

If you have a large home & wish to cool multiple rooms at once, then this type of air conditioning is best suited for you. A central air conditioning unit uses a split system that regulates air through ducts installed in your home. It is also known as a ducted system.

The split aspect implies that the system is a combination of two main units. The outdoor unit packs in the condenser and compressor. While the indoor unit comprises the evaporator coils & air handler. Like any typical air conditioner, central air conditioning also uses refrigerant to remove heat from the indoor air. This heat is pulled outdoors & cool air is pushed in through the ducts.Utilizing modern HVAC technology, smart thermostats can be coupled with central air conditioners for a smart home experience.

2. Ductless Mini-Split

If you want better efficiency, or you want to do away with a lot of ducting, or you simply just want a portion of your home to be cooled, then opting for ductless mini-split air conditioners is a great choice. Ductless systems are a great choice for contemporary homes.Such type of an air conditioner is a combination of an outdoor unit comprising of a compressor & a condenser that comes along with one or more indoor units. These indoor units are mounted on a wall and equipped with air blowers. The indoor & outdoor units are connected through tubing and, refrigerant circulates through them in variations depending on the type of usage.

Since these indoor units are small and compact, each room usually gets its own unit installed that can either be used for heating or cooling purposes. Such types of air conditioners are regarded as much more efficient in energy consumption compared to some of the other options available out there but can also be heavy on the pocket if you plan on installing one in each room to cover the entire house.Ductless mini-splits come with a remote control but, coupled with a smart AC controller you can operate them using your phone, from anywhere!

3. Window Air Conditioner

Since Window Air Controllers come in different sizes, they would be suitable if you’re looking to cool a single room or a small area. If you go for a large window air conditioner, you can even cool a small home, considering it is a single story or one open space. Window air conditioners, since the beginning, have been labeled as champions of cooling smaller spaces & regarded as the most common type of air conditioner.

A window air conditioner is a single unit with all of its components enclosed inside. It ejects heat out of its outdoor side and blows cool air into the room on the indoor side.  As the name suggests, it is installed in a window or by making a hole in the wall. Such air conditioners have a filter that slides out so that it can be cleaned regularly for full AC efficiency. These air conditioners have controls on the unit & may also come with a remote.

4. Portable Air Conditioner

Portable air controllers are similar to window air conditioners. They are also placed in a single unit with all its components enclosed inside, but the difference is that it is a free-standing unit and therefore can be moved from room to room. All it requires is a power outlet to power it up & access to a window where the unit’s air can be exhausted from using its funnel.

You can opt for a portable air conditioner if you want temporary space cooling, or wherever it’s not practical to install a window or split air conditioner. They are very handy, and smaller versions can even be used for kennels or bathrooms. Portable ACs can be single- hose that takes in air from inside a room and expel it outdoors. Or, dual-hose, which pulls air from the outdoors using one hose, this air cools the compressor and is then exhausted outdoors from the other hose.

5. Floor-Mounted Air Conditioner

Floor-mounted air conditioners are designed for convenience if you prefer a mini-split but lack the required space for a wall mounted unit. The indoor unit of floor-mounted AC rests on the floor, and the outer unit can be installed without major site preparation or any ductwork. This arrangement is also ideal for spaces with tilted walls, such as attics, or building constructed with fragile materials such as glass. The unit can be installed up to 6 inches higher than the floor, and through a small hole in the wall it is connected to the outdoor unit. An amazing benefit of the placement of this AC is that it allows you to very easily check the air filters!

Easy access to the air filters makes floor-mounted air conditioners ideal for individuals with respiratory issues or people who are keen on keeping their indoor air quality as clean as possible. Floor mounted systems cool/heat the room quicker than any other mounting system as the fan blows the air directly at your level. On the contrary, units that are mounted high up on the wall can often face difficulties cooling the room uniformly and efficiently.

6. Smart Air Conditioner

Smart air controllers are a type of mini-split, window, or portable air conditioner that are IoT enabled. These ACs are connected to Wi-Fi and come with a native app providing global control through a smartphone.

Depending on the manufacturer, these air conditioners come with numerous functionalities. Some of these include weekly scheduling, geofencing, comfy mode, temperature range control, and numerous other features. Utilizing these, you can achieve great comfort coupled with energy savings.

Smart AC controllers are also available in the market, providing all the functionalities of a smart AC to any conventional ducted unit. They work like programmable thermostats and come at a fraction of the cost compared to smart ACs.

7. Geothermal Air Conditioning System

Geothermal heating & cooling is considered a relatively new method, it works by utilizing the insulating properties of the earth. Since the temperatures under 4 to 6 feet of land remain consistent all year regardless of the weather, geothermal technology takes advantage of this to heat & cool your home more efficiently.

This system has piping that consists of a loop that circulates water between your home, a heat pump & the ground. They require intensive work to set up underground.

8. Hybrid / Dual Fuel Air Conditioner

A hybrid system is one that combines a gas furnace with an electric air-source heat pump to deliver a cost-effective & efficient performance in terms of heating & cooling. Depending on the temperature outdoors, the system automatically switches between burning fossil fuels and the usage of electricity. You program the temperature at which the system switches from heat pump to furnace, or you can make the manual switch too.

During the summer season, the heat pump works as it functions, pulling hot air from inside your home and throwing it outdoors. During the winters, this process is reversed, and heat is distributed throughout your home. When the temperature is too cold for a heat pump to function efficiently, the furnace kicks in.

9. Evaporator Cooler

Evaporative coolers are sometimes categorized as air conditioning alternatives, even though technically, they are not air conditioners and differ in both mechanism and structure. This inclusion in the list stems from their ability to effectively cool indoor spaces. Unlike conventional AC systems with ducts and refrigeration cycles, evaporative coolers operate by drawing in warm air through water-saturated pads or media.

They need less electricity than other types of air conditioners. However, on the downside, they utilize a lot of water and need to be regularly filled. Additionally, they increase the rooms humidity levels. When operating an evaporative cooler, it’s advisable to partially open windows so that your room’s humidity levels do not exceed the recommended levels. 

Unlike conventional AC systems with ducts and refrigeration cycles, evaporative coolers operate by taking in warm, dry air, which is then passed through the water-saturated pads ,and cool humid air is pushed into the room. They are more suitable for arid climates such as Arizona as compared to humid areas.
