Oakter Launches Studio AC 5000: Affordable & Compact Air Conditioner

Lightweight, Energy-Efficient, and User-Friendly Cooling Solution

  • Compact 18.5 kg design with plug-and-play DIY installation

  • 0.5-ton capacity with just 348.35W power consumption

New Delhi, 25th September 2025: Oakter, the consumer IoT brand under Riot Labz Pvt Ltd, has unveiled its latest innovation in home cooling – the Studio AC 5000, an economic, compact, and efficient air conditioner designed specifically for modern urban households. Priced at just ₹15,500 and available on Amazon and Flipkart, the Studio AC 5000 is positioned as one of the most affordable air conditioning solutions in India’s competitive online market.

Compact Yet Powerful Cooling for Urban Homes

Engineered for small to mid-sized rooms up to 75 sq. ft., the Studio AC 5000 offers a cooling capacity of 1225W (0.5 tons) while consuming only 348.35 watts per hour. This makes it a far more energy-efficient option compared to traditional 1-ton air conditioners, while delivering stronger performance than conventional desert coolers.

Designed to operate on a standard 230V, 6A socket, the unit removes the need for expensive electrical upgrades or dedicated circuits. This makes it particularly suitable for apartments, shared accommodations, and compact homes where installation constraints often limit air conditioning options.

Lightweight and Easy to Install

Weighing just 18.5 kg, the Studio AC 5000 is significantly lighter than typical 1.5-ton window ACs, which often weigh around 50 kg. Its plug-and-play DIY installation means homeowners do not need a technician for setup, though a carpenter may be required to create a proper sealed opening for placement.

The unit’s compact dimensions (35D x 41W x 30H cm) and sleek white finish ensure that it integrates seamlessly into modern living spaces without dominating the room’s aesthetics.

Smart, Sustainable, and Quiet

Shishir Gupta, CEO and Co-founder of Oakter, highlighted the inspiration behind the product:

“Air conditioners in India have traditionally been bulky, expensive, and power-hungry, while coolers, though affordable, compromise on performance. With Studio AC 5000, we wanted to create a category-defining product that is light, efficient, water-smart, and easy to install. It is designed for the new generation of Indian consumers who seek smart, practical, and sustainable solutions for everyday living.”

The Studio AC 5000 also integrates a condensation reuse system that recycles water, reducing wastage and improving cooling efficiency. This system ensures minimal dripping in humid conditions and maintains stable performance in both dry and moist climates. Furthermore, the air conditioner operates at a noise level of just 57.6 dB, providing a comfortable and unobtrusive cooling experience.

Filling a Gap in the Indian Cooling Market

With its affordable pricing, lightweight construction, energy efficiency, and water-smart design, the Studio AC 5000 positions itself as a practical alternative to both heavy-duty air conditioners and traditional coolers. By addressing the challenges of cost, energy consumption, and portability, it fills a long-standing gap in the Indian cooling market for compact yet effective solutions.

This launch aligns with Oakter’s vision of delivering user-centric, smart, and sustainable home appliances that combine convenience with technology, empowering consumers to make environmentally conscious choices without compromising comfort.
