Portable air conditioners are very good for people who want always to be in a cool environment, without having to make a window installation space. These types of air conditioners are more convenient than window air conditioners and are very easy to operate. Most of them have wheels at the bottom that makes them easy to transport from one part of your home to another. It enables saving money because only the particular area you need is cooled.

Portable air conditioners have simple configurations. There is a kind of box-like design that holds the cold and hot sides in one place. An exhaust hose removes the heat and water is condensed out of the air. The water is collected in an internal drain bucket or through a drain hose. Some portable air conditioners use evaporative technology so that little to no water is produced.

Portable air conditioners should not be kept to an external thermostat and it’s advisable to turn on fan mode once it is done working as an air conditioner for a cooling session.

Factors To Consider When Buying A Portable Air Conditioner

• BTU:

One of the very most important factor to consider when getting a portable air conditioner is the BTU rating. BTU stands for British thermal unit, which is a unit of energy used in power, steam generation and heating and air conditioning industries. BTU rating shows power and cooling capacities. It determines the heat that an air conditioner can remove from a room. The higher the value, the stronger the air conditioner. BTU ratings usually range from 5,000 to 30,000 and the size needed depends on the area being cooled.

• Sizing:

The cooling efficiency of your portable air conditioner’s can be affected by the wrong BTU value. If in a way there is a higher value that the corresponding room size the unit will cycle on and off too quickly and will not properly remove heat from the air. When it cycles on and off like that, energy is being consumed, electricity bills are increased and the unit is strained. Also, there is tendency for the unit to freeze over but many units come with an automatic shut-down switch that operates when the unit gets too cold. If the BTU rating is lower than the corresponding room size, the room will not be adequately cooled

Portable air conditioners do work properly when it is appropriately sized, so have these simple steps in mind when choosing a unit:

1. Measure the room dimensions by multiplying the length by the width. You’ll need about 30 BTUs per square foot of space.
2. Check the actual size of the window opening.
3. For each person over two in a room add 600 BTUs. Each person at rest adds approximately 230 BTUs to a room per hour.
4. For kitchen cooling or other rooms with a lot of heat add 4,000 BTUs. Also, if you live in a very warm weather condition, you’ll probably need a portable air conditioner that outputs more BTUs per hour
