Analysis

Build Aspect

Toshiba is not the first name that usually pops to mind when we think cooling. Albeit here we are with a 1.5 Ton 3 star Inverter AC with a rather long model number RAS-18HKCV3G-INT +RAS-18HACV3G-INT. The AC is very well build, be it the plastics or the finishing, it exudes richness. The IDU is a clean designed unit and has a classy of understated appeal to it. Similarly the remote control is backlit and has a very good layout too. The ODU unit is has a tidiness too but it lacks the heft which gives birth to sense of durability, we could be wrong but it feels a little light weight.

Performance Aspect

The performance of this AC is fantastic. Its cooling capacity tops at 20131 BTU which is very good. The inverter compressor is very potent and efficient, it has a very good 3.91 ISEER. 3 power levels ensure that you not only keep the room at optimal temperature but do so in a most efficient way. Unfortunately the AC is equipped with a fan which is somewhat noisy, peaking a loud 49 db at max fan speed when it pushes an unexceptional 510 CFM of air. Furthermore the swing control facilitates only 2 way motor swing, which is a bummer. However a PM 2.5 filter is provided which should be a norm in all ACs.

From the manufacturer

Magic Coil

Air conditioner can collect dirt inside them through allergens that can affect the longevity of air conditioner. Aqua Resin Coated Coil helps extend your ac’s life by preventing the accumulation of oil, moisture, and dirt on the coil.

Self Cleaning

The auto-clean feature allows your ac to runs on fan mode for 20 minutes after the AC after shutting down, effectively preventing and moisture or dirt from collecting on the unit. This helps keeping the indoor coil dry and reducing the growth of bacteria. Now keep odor and mold at bay.

Path Breaking Inverter Technology Technologies like the Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) and the Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM) ensure that your desired room temperature is reached and maintained in no time at all.	Active-Carbon Catechin Filter Filter absorption depends on many factors like acid (base conditions), close or open environment, concentration degree of smell and activated carbon. Toshiba’s Catechin filter eliminates bacteria, bad odor, and protects you from dust.	The power is in your hands The power to save power is now literally in your hands! Select 100% to use the air-conditioner at full capacity, 75% or 50% to save power and money on your electricity bill.

Powerful Cooling Enjoy stronger, farther and wider cooling. The new Hi Wall Inverter AC has a 13% bigger FCU (Fan Coil Unit) and 10% increased Heat-transfer Surface that cools your entire room quickly.	Quite Operations The special incline design of the fan blades of this AC reduces its operational sound to nearly 22 dB, helping it deliver a silent operation.	Designed for Durability This AC is designed for durability while looking aesthetically pleasing. Its bat wing fan design ensures that it delivers a silent operation while delivering more wind in less time. On top of that, the electronic box prevents short-circuiting by protecting the outer units from rodents, and other disrupters. Additionally, air turbulence is reduced due to the pressure loss caused by the reverse-arc wing.
