How Much Electricity Does a 1.5 Ton AC Use in Pakistan?
When summer is at its worst in Pakistan, everyone runs AC almost all day. But how much electricity a 1.5 ton AC actually giвes on your bill? Let’s see!
Average Daily & Monthly Use
- A regular (non-inverter) 1.5 ton AC uses about 1.5–2 kWh per hour.
- If you run it 8 hours a day, that’s 12–16 kWh/day → 360–480 kWh/month.
-
At around Rs. 18 per unit, it costs roughly Rs. 6,500–9,000 per month.

Understanding the Power Consumption
A standard 1.5 ton air conditioner typically consumes between 1.5 to 2 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per hour of operation. During peak summer months, when families run their ACs for 8 hours daily, this translates to 12-16 kWh per day. Over a full month, you're looking at 360-480 kWh of electricity consumption.
With Pakistan's current electricity rates averaging around Rs. 18 per unit, running a 1.5 ton AC for 8 hours daily can add Rs. 6,500 to Rs. 9,000 to your monthly electricity bill.
