Many people think more BTU"s will cool better, but you need to be carefull and size the AC to the sq. footage.

To make a room comfortable the air conditioner needs to both cool the room air AND dehumidify the room air.
If the air conditioner is too large for the space to be cooled, the temperature will drop quickly and the A/C unit will shut off before the air has become adequately dry.
The room will be either too cold or too humid for comfort."
