About this tool

Appliance Size Selector

Find the right refrigerator, washing machine, geyser, ceiling fan, microwave or deep freezer size for your family and room.

Pick the appliance, enter family size or room size and get the capacity to buy. This page brings together 6 separate appliance size selector pages (Ceiling fan, Deep freezer, Geyser, Microwave, Refrigerator, Washing machine) so you can compare them without hunting for the right one.

  1. 1

    Open Appliance Size Selector on AltFTool — it loads instantly in your browser.

  3. 3

    Fill in the appliance size selector for that appliance; each of the 6 options keeps its own rules, data and defaults.

  4. 4

    Read the result, then switch appliance to compare. The page link keeps your appliance (?v=ceiling-fan), so you can bookmark or share it.

Why use Appliance Size Selector

  • All 6 in one place

    Ceiling fan, Deep freezer, Geyser and the rest sit behind one picker, so switching appliance takes a tap instead of a new search.

  • Built for each option

    Every appliance keeps its own rules, numbers and defaults rather than one generic template.

  • Shareable view

    The link remembers the appliance you picked, so a bookmark or a shared link opens straight on it.

Common use cases

  • Choose between a 1200 mm and a 1400 mm fan for a 4 m × 3.5 m bedroom before ordering online.
  • Choosing between a 200 L and a 300 L chest freezer for a family of four that bulk-buys meat monthly
  • Decide between a 15 L and a 25 L geyser for a bathroom two people use back to back each morning.
  • Choose between a 20 L solo and a 25 L convection for a couple who wants to start baking.

Frequently asked questions

Which appliance options does this tool cover?

6: Ceiling fan, Deep freezer, Geyser, Microwave, Refrigerator, Washing machine. Pick one at the top of the tool; the page link updates (for example ?v=ceiling-fan) so you can bookmark or share that exact view.

What size ceiling fan do I need for my room?

Go by floor area: 900 mm (36 inch) up to about 7 m², 1200 mm (48 inch) up to 13.5 m², 1400 mm (56 inch) up to 21 m², and two fans beyond roughly 26 m². A standard 10 ft × 12 ft Indian bedroom is 11 m², so a 1200 mm fan is the right call.

What size deep freezer do I need for a family of 4?

About 250 litres gross for moderate bulk buying. The standard allowance is 1.5 cubic feet (42.5 L) of storage per person, so four people need about 170 usable litres, which becomes roughly 212 gross litres once chest-freezer packing efficiency of 80% is applied — putting a 250 L cabinet in the right place.

What size geyser do I need for one bathroom?

15 litres covers one bucket bath comfortably, and 25 litres covers two people bathing back to back. A single 8-minute shower at 8 litres a minute draws about 32 litres of 60 °C water, which needs a 35 litre tank or an instant heater.

What size microwave is best for a family of 4?

About 25 litres for reheating and defrosting, or 28-30 litres if you want convection baking and roasting. Below 23 litres a family-size casserole starts to be a squeeze, and above 32 litres you are mainly paying for baking headroom.

What size refrigerator do I need for a family of 4?

Usually 250-400 litres. A family of four that cooks at home and shops weekly lands near 300-350 L, which is double-door frost-free territory. Bulk shopping, heavy frozen use or frequent guests can push the same family past 450 L.

What size washing machine do I need for a family of 4?

Around 7 to 8 kg for most families of four washing three times a week. That household generates roughly 18 kg of dry laundry a week, which is about 6 kg a wash, and a 7 to 7.5 kg drum carries that with room to tumble.
