Haan, kitchen mein split AC lagwaya ja sakta hai, lekin kuch important baatein dhyan rakhni padengi:

1. Heat Load Zyada Hota Hai

Kitchen mein stove, oven, microwave jaise appliances se already heat hoti hai. Isliye AC pe zyada load padta hai, aur efficiency thodi kam ho sakti hai.

2. Oil & Grease Problem

Cooking ke time oil aur grease hawa mein mix hota hai, jo AC ke filters aur coils par chipak sakta hai. Isse AC ki performance aur life dono pe effect padta hai.
Solution: Har 3-4 mahine mein proper servicing zaroori hai.

3. Proper Placement

AC ka indoor unit aise jagah ho jahan se wo direct stove ya heat source ke saamne na ho. Warna thermostat confuse ho jaata hai aur cooling mein dikkat hoti hai.

4. Chimney Must

Agar aap kitchen mein AC lagwa rahe ho, to chimney ka hona zaroori hai taaki smoke, oil aur smell AC tak na pahunch sake.

5. Ton Capacity Choose Karte Time

Room ke size ke saath kitchen ke heat sources bhi count karo. Agar kitchen bada hai aur zyada cooking hoti hai, to 1.5 ton ya 2 ton ka AC lena better hoga.

 

Kitchen me Ac lawane se Aag lane ka Risk hai kya?

kitchen mein split AC lagane se aag lagne ka risk theoretically ho sakta hai, lekin agar sab kuch sahi tarike se install kiya gaya ho to ye risk bahut kam hota hai. Phir bhi kuch precautions lena zaroori hai:

Aag lagne ke possible risk aur unke solutions:

1. Oil vapors + Electrical spark

Cooking ke dauraan oil vapors hawa mein rehte hain. Agar AC ke indoor unit mein koi short circuit ya spark ho jaye, to oil particles se fire ka chance ho sakta hai.

Solution:

  • High-quality branded AC install karein

  • Professional electrician se wiring karwayein

  • Regular servicing aur cleaning zaroori hai

2. Improper Wiring / Overload

Kitchen mein pehle hi high power equipment hote hain (microwave, oven, fridge). Agar AC ke liye alag circuit na ho to overload se wire garam ho kar fire ka risk badh sakta hai.

Solution:

  • AC ke liye alag MCB aur circuit banwayein

  • Proper earthing aur load calculation karwayein

3. Heat + AC Outdoor Unit

Agar outdoor unit bhi kitchen ke aas-paas ho aur ventilation na ho, to overheating se risk badh sakta hai.

Solution:

  • Outdoor unit open space mein ho

  • Air flow aur ventilation ka dhyan rakhein

4. Gas Leakage (Refrigerant Leak)

Agar AC mein gas leak ho jaye (jaise R32 ya R410A), aur kitchen mein flame ho, to kuch rare conditions mein fire ho sakti hai.

Solution:

  • Leak detect hone par turant repair karwayein

  • Flame ke paas AC servicing kabhi na karwayein

Kitchen me split AC se aag lagne ka chance bahut hi kam hota hai — agar sab kuch sahi tarike se install aur maintain kiya gaya ho. Percentage ke terms me dekha jaye to risk lagbhag 0.01% se bhi kam hota hai, yani:

Fire Risk Estimate:

  • Proper Installation & Maintenance ho to:
    0.001% – 0.01% (1 in 10,000 to 1 in 100,000 chance)

Yeh numbers  industry data ke base pe general estimation hai.  (No any official data is available on this topic)

Summary:

Agar aap ye 5 cheezein follow karte ho:

  1. Branded AC use karna

  2. Certified electrician se wiring karwana

  3. Chimney aur ventilation ka dhyan rakhna

  4. Regular AC servicing karwana

  5. AC ka indoor unit stove ke saamne na lagwana

To fire ka risk almost negligible ho jaata hai.

Check List

Kitchen Me Split AC Lagwane Se Pehle Ki Checklist

1. AC Installation Se Pehle:

  • AC ke liye separate power circuit aur MCB lagwayein

  • Certified electrician se wiring aur load calculation karwayein

  • Kitchen mein chimney laga ho — oil/smoke ka AC pe asar na ho

  • Indoor unit stove ya flame source ke directly saamne na ho

  • Outdoor unit ventilated area mein ho, heat trap na ho

2. AC Installation Ke Dauran:

  • AC unit ko slightly tilted install karwayein taaki pani drain ho sake

  • Indoor aur outdoor unit dono ka wiring aur copper pipe secure ho

  • Flame ya high heat area se AC wires aur gas pipes door ho

  • AC technician leak test aur insulation test zaroor kare

3. Installation Ke Baad (Maintenance):

  • 3-4 mahine mein ek baar AC servicing karwayein (especially filters)

  • AC ke paas oil, grease, ya open flame ka contact na ho

  • Wires, plug, socket regularly check karein

  • Agar burnt smell ya unusual noise aaye to AC band karwa ke check karwayein

  • Chimney ka filter bhi regular clean karna zaroori hai

Ye checklist aap installer ko bhi dikhayein — taaki koi step miss na ho.

NOTE

Centralized AC Kitchen Me Na Lagaye –

  1. Kitchen Mein Central AC Ka Vent Na Lagaye:

    • Kabhi bhi cooking area ke andar centralized AC ka vent na lagaye.

    • Kitchen ka smoke, oil vapour aur smell AC system ke through pure ghar/office mein fail sakti hai.

    • Isse AC ke filters clog ho sakte hain aur system damage ho sakta hai.
