If the capacity of the air conditioner that you purchase is too much compared to the requirements of the room then you are wasting electricity.
When you install your air conditioner, it is good if you are able to find an automatic switch that turns on the fan and turns off the air-conditioner when a specified temperature has already been reached. This way, the temperature inside the room is maintained without the air-conditioner running.
With your air-conditioner at home, it is very important that you regularly ask a technician to check it. Whenever necessary, you should replace the parts of your air-conditioner that have already degraded. For best results, you should replace the filter of your air-conditioner at least once a year.
