Cooling and energy use

It carries a 5-star BEE label (2026 table). Its ISEER (Indian Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio, the figure behind the BEE stars) is 5.7; a higher ISEER means less electricity for the same cooling over an Indian summer. The BEE label puts annual consumption at 698.96 kWh, measured on the standard 1,600 hours of use; your bill depends on your hours, thermostat setting and tariff. Rated at full load: 5,150 W of cooling and 1,210 W of power input. The inverter compressor changes speed instead of switching on and off, which is why inverter ACs use less power over a long evening. Blue Star says it keeps cooling at outdoor temperatures up to 54 °C. Convertible modes: 5-in-1 (it can run at lower capacity to save power when the room needs less).
