A star rating of an air conditioner is an indicator of its energy efficiency. This rating is awarded by BEE or Bureau of Energy Efficiency. A star rating is a good indicator for a consumer to understand the power required to run an AC.

The easiest place to find it is on the AC itself. All AC’s will have a BEE label on them. The rating of the AC is indicated with red color stars on the sticker. If all 5 stars are colored, it’s a 5 star AC. If 3 are colored, it’s a 3 star AC. Below the stars, in the centre, you can read “ More stars, More savings”. This is a direct indication of what the stars mean.

If you want to know about star rating before buying an AC, it’s best to check out the product specification on product page.
