AC Prices Set to Soar: Buy Now Before Summer Heat Drives Up Costs

• AC prices expected to increase by 5% to 15% soon, ahead of peak summer demand.
• Rising raw material costs, especially copper and aluminum, are major drivers for the price hike.
• Increased costs of electronic components, global supply chain issues, and higher logistics expenses contribute to the surge.
• New government energy efficiency standards requiring advanced technology also add to manufacturing costs.
• Consumers advised to purchase ACs quickly to avoid higher prices, as revisions may occur in phases.
