The Smart Buyer’s Guide for Condos, Apartments, and Tight Corners
Living in a condo, apartment, or any compact space doesn’t mean you have to settle for small performance.
But it does mean you have to shop smarter.
At Emcor, we help space-savvy Filipinos find appliances that maximize comfort without crowding their home. Here’s how you can do the same—without sacrificing power, features, or style.
Step 1: Measure Everything (Not Just Floor Space)
Before you add anything to cart, measure:
- 🔹 Floor area for the appliance
- 🔹 Height clearance (especially under cabinets)
- 🔹 Entryways, stairwells, and door frames (for delivery!)
💡 Pro Tip: Leave at least 2–4 inches of breathing room for ventilation around aircons, fridges, and ovens.
Step 2: Pick Appliances That Punch Above Their Size
Here are our Emcor-approved picks for small spaces:
Appliance | Ideal For | Smart Space-Saving Pick |
Aircon | Condo bedrooms, studios | ✔ Portable or 0.5–1.0HP inverter models |
Refrigerator | Solo living, small families | ✔ Slim single-door or bottom-freezer models |
Washing Machine | Apartments, laundry corners | ✔ Top-load compact or front-load slim models |
TV | Condos, bedrooms | ✔ 32″–43″ Smart TVs, wall-mounted options |
Microwave/Oven | Tight kitchen counters | ✔ 20L–30L digital compact models |
All available with installment plans + nationwide delivery at Emcor.
Step 3: Go Multi-Function Where Possible
Look for appliances that do more with less:
- 🌀 Washer with air-dry = no need for drying racks
- 🔌 Microwave + convection oven = one appliance, multiple uses
- 📺 Smart TV = built-in Netflix & YouTube, no need for extra boxes
- ❄️ Aircon + dehumidifier + purifier combo = 3-in-1 cooling
One unit. Less clutter. More power.
Step 4: Wall Mount It or Tuck It Smartly
- 📺 Wall-mounted TVs = floor space saved
- 🧺 Stackable washers = better laundry zone
- 🧊 Slim fridge next to pantry = clean kitchen layout
- 🪟 Portable aircon = movable cooling without installation
💡 Emcor offers installation services in select areas—ask us how to maximize layout when you buy.
