Wondering if a Portable Air Conditioner is right for you? Here is a guide to help you decide how to stay cool this summer.
Air Conditioners are a great way to keep inside cool, even when outside is blisteringly hot. Here is a guide to get you thinking about whether a Portable Air Conditioner is the right option for you.
Like Window Wall, Split System and ducted aircons, portable air conditioners work by drawing in the warm and humid air in a room, cooling and dehumidifying it, then blowing it back out into the room. They key difference is that portable air conditioners are not built in or permanently installed. Whilst they are not portable in the same way a Pedestal Fan is, portable air conditioners are relatively simple to install and take with you when you move.
As mentioned before, a nearby window will be needed to let your portable air condition vent heat. Before making your purchase, it is worth measuring up the dimensions of the window to ensure the venting kit will be long enough for your window frame. Generally, these kits are designed for sliding or sash windows, so if you have a hinged window you may want to look carefully at what the AC unit comes with.
Portable air conditioners might be a quick, cheap air conditioning solution compared to other AC systems. Where these types of air conditioners tend to be disadvantaged is when comparing energy efficiency.
Energy ratings aside, you will find that Portable Air Conditioners are great for cheap, quick cooling solutions that do not require professional installation. Because all they need is a window and an available power outlet, these types of air conditioners are great for renters who may not be able to get approval for AC installation from their landlord.
