Hi all, I live in a normal terrace house (24x70), facing 15 deg. North, and I plan to install an AC in my living room (ground floor). I don't think I need an inverter type because it will only be used when we have guests coming, or when it is extremely hot during day time.

For an area this size, my questions are:

1. Would 1.5 HP enough?
2. Is inverter relevant here?
3. Which brand and model is best for my case?

My priorities are reliability (less break down), and effective (it really cools down the area).

An extra note: We will install solar panels in the coming week.
