How many air conditioners for a wedding hall?

A wedding hall quickly fills with heat: guests, the kitchen, music and lighting all give off heat. Here is how to estimate the number of units needed before requesting your quote.

1. The floor area

The basic rule: about 1 kW of cooling per 10 to 12 m², depending on ceiling height and insulation. For a 200 m² hall, budget a total capacity of about 16 to 20 kW spread across several units.

2. The number of guests

Each guest gives off heat: budget an average of 100 W per person. For 300 guests, that's an extra 30 kW to account for. That is why very large receptions require professional cabinet units, not simple domestic ACs.

3. Enclosed hall or tent?

An enclosed hall keeps the cold better but can overheat quickly. A tent or marquee, often exposed to the sun, loses cool air: more capacity and well-distributed airflow are needed. Early installation lets you adjust capacity and positions.
