How to understand the star rating in Panasonic AC using model number?
Panasonic uses numbers 24 for 2-ton AC, 18 for 1.5-ton AC, and 12 for 1-ton AC.
Example:
CS/CU-XU12YKYF – This is a 1-ton AC.
CS/CU-XU18YKYF – This is a 1.5-ton AC.
CS/CU-XU24YKYF – This is a 2-ton AC.
Final Words,
I hope this blog helps you to understand the features and specifications of the latest 2022 year AC models launched by Panasonic. The higher-end models like CS/CU-HU18YKYF and CS/CU-XU18YKF have features to purify the air, kill bacteria, and some others. Other than that it is the same as other regular models. Then the lower end model CS/CU-NU18XKYWK has the missing feature of WIFI support, hence you couldn’t control this AC with Miracle App, Alexa, or Google Assistant.
Moreover same feature set applies to 3 – Star Series AC, and 1-ton AC, and the difference will be power consumption and area coverage respectively. So I believe, there will be no separate article required to understand the 2022 year Panasonic AC models from the 3-star series and 1-ton series.
If you prefer to get the AC with air purification technology in Panasonic, you can go with the model CS/CU-HU18YKYF, which satisfies your need and best in this category. You can decide the necessity of this feature based on the area you are living. If you’re living in an area where there is no air pollution, then you can ignore this model and go with the regular one. I could recommend the model CS/CU-NU18XKYWA, which has all the required specs and features with WiFI Support and can easily control with mobile using the Miracle app, with 10K cheaper than the high-end models.
