Voltas 1.5 Ton 3 Star Hot & Cold Inverter Split AC 183INVHC Vectra Zenith₹41,00043% offScore 7.7/10A hot & cold AC is a heat pump: in winter it runs its refrigeration cycle in reverse and moves heat into the room. Because it moves heat rather than making it, it typically delivers more warmth per unit of electricity than a fan heater or oil radiator drawing 2 kW directly — which makes it the most economical way to heat a bedroom in a north Indian winter.
Heating output falls as the outdoor temperature drops, and below about 0°C most units rely on a defrost cycle to keep going. Voltas publishes the widest range here, down to -7°C outdoors; Blue Star's ID318DNUHC runs to -2°C with auto defrost. For Delhi, Lucknow, Chandigarh or Jaipur winters, any of them works; for hill-station cold, check the published minimum.
The trade-off is usually summer efficiency and ambient rating. Samsung's hot & cold model is rated to cool only up to 48°C, and Blue Star's has the lowest ISEER of the inverter splits we compare.
