Compare Aircon Models in Singapore

Search NEA-registered models and compare system type, cooling capacity, energy rating, yearly energy use and NEA’s estimated yearly cost.

Find your aircon model

Search using the outdoor-unit model number. For a fair comparison, choose models with the same system type and similar cooling capacity.

Read the numbers before you compare

These four fields answer different questions. A fair comparison starts by making sure both models are designed to do a similar job.

Energy rating

Efficiency, not cooling strength

More ticks mean better efficiency under the energy-label test. They do not mean the unit has more cooling capacity.

Cooling capacity

Compare a similar kW range

Capacity is the cooling output. A lower-energy model may simply be designed for a smaller cooling load.

Energy use / year

A common test basis

Annual kWh helps compare registered models on the same label basis. It is not your household's measured consumption.

NEA cost / year

A standard comparison, not your bill

NEA multiplies the standardized annual energy use by 27 cents per kWh. Your actual cost will vary with your electricity rate and usage.

Want an estimate based on your actual usage?

Model-label figures are for comparison. Our running-cost calculator uses your active rooms, hours, BTU, and temperature pattern.

Aircon model comparison questions

Does five ticks always mean the best aircon model?
No. Five ticks indicate higher energy efficiency under the label test, not stronger cooling or a better fit for every home. Compare models of the same system type and similar cooling capacity, then consider your rooms, piping layout, installation constraints, and budget.
What does the NEA yearly cost assume?
It uses the model's standardized annual energy consumption, based on 8 hours of daily use and 16 hours on standby, multiplied by 27 cents per kWh. It is designed for comparing models, not predicting your household's exact electricity bill.
Where can I find my aircon model number?
Check the sticker on the outdoor condenser first. For a multi-split system, the outdoor model is the most useful starting point because it connects several indoor units. You may also find model numbers on indoor-unit labels, invoices, warranties, or service records.
Can I compare multi-split and single-split models directly?
Usually not. A multi-split outdoor unit can serve several indoor units, while a single split serves one. Their capacity and annual energy figures describe different jobs. Filter by the same system type before comparing the numbers.
Why might my actual electricity bill be different?
Actual use changes with operating hours, temperature setting, room heat load, occupancy, weather, maintenance condition, installation quality, and how many indoor units run at once. Use these figures for like-for-like comparison, then use the running-cost calculator for your household pattern.

Data source and calculation

Model specifications come from the NEA Registered Goods Product Search snapshot dated 17 Sept 2026. NEA yearly cost is annual kWh × 27¢/kWh, rounded to the nearest dollar. It uses NEA's standard comparison basis rather than your household's measured usage.
