How to Read a Saudi AC Energy Label
A correct capacity is only the first filter. The label helps you compare efficiency and annual energy use between units that can actually serve the same space.

What to check
- Cooling capacity: confirm the unit is in the capacity range you need.
- Efficiency level: compare the A–G classification shown under the applicable Saudi label requirements.
- SEER / seasonal efficiency: a higher seasonal-efficiency figure indicates more cooling output per unit of electricity under the test method.
- Annual energy consumption: useful for comparing the expected energy demand of two correctly sized products.
- Electrical input power: useful in our running-cost calculator.
Check whether two labels are actually comparable
Enter cooling capacity and annual consumption from two labels. If capacity differs materially, the tool warns you before you treat the kWh difference as an efficiency win.
Verify the label
SASO's Ta’akad service can be used to verify efficiency-label information. When possible, compare verified label data rather than relying only on retailer marketing copy.
