What happens if I buy an undersized or oversized AC?

An undersized AC runs constantly at full load, struggles to reach set temperature on hot days, and wears out faster. An oversized AC cools the room too quickly without running long enough to properly remove humidity, leaving the room feeling cold but clammy, while costing more upfront. Getting tonnage right matters more than buying "extra" capacity for safety margin.

Bigger is not automatically better. Inverter ACs do modulate their output, which forgives modest oversizing better than older fixed-speed units did — but a significantly oversized unit still short-cycles on humidity removal, since dehumidification happens gradually while the compressor runs, not instantly when it switches on.
