BTU rating: 12000 BTU | Functions: Cooler, heater and dehumidifier | Energy rating: A | Noise level: 53/51/49dB | Speed settings: 4 | Hose length: 150cm | Dimensions: 40.5 x 82 x 39cm | Weight: 35kg | Power: 1345W What we like All PACs incorporate a compressor and one or more fans, so they’re never going to be totally silent. Some are quieter than others, however: you should find the minimum and/or maximum noise pressure levels listed in the manufacturer’s specification. Watch out for sleep modes, too. These power down the compressor and reduce the speed of any fans to make the PAC’s hum a little easier to sleep through. If you really struggle with the noise, though, think about cooling the room before you go to sleep, or try using a desktop or pedestal fan instead. If the central AC is too expensive to run and a fan is not enough to cool the room, get a portable air conditioner ( like these here).

Since some air cons also act as dehumidifiers, you’ll need a method to direct the water away from the unit. While most air cons have a collection tank that can be emptied manually, there are simpler ways to do this. As you may expect, portable air conditioners are fairly power-hungry. According to data from consumer champion Which?, portable air conditioners use as much energy in one hour as a typical fridge freezer uses in one day. With all this information at your disposal, finding the right portable air conditioner for your home, business or office should be much easier now. Remember, you get more value for your money if you buy a unit that can be used all year round as opposed to one that only cools. We all know that heat rises, meaning our bedrooms can be unbearable during the summer months. If you have young children, this can lead to a disturbed night for everyone. Having a portable air conditioning unit upstairs or in your master bedroom can make the surroundings far more comfortable and conducive for sleep.Air-conditioning units don’t get much more reasonably priced than the MeacoCool MC 7000. Suitable for rooms up to 22m² thanks to its 7,000 BTU rating, the unit includes two fan speeds, as well as dehumidifier and fan functions. It’s reasonably compact, too, measuring less than a metre tall and 35cm square. At 21kg, it’s also more realistically portable than some PACs; you can just about lug it from room to room without risking a hernia.

You can set the AC to your preferred temperature between 16 and 31 degrees Celsius. If you don’t set any temperature, the AC will operate in auto mode, automatically maintaining the room at 22 degrees and fan speed at low. If you’ve been avoiding portable air conditioners because you have push out windows, you’ll be pleased to learn how easy it is to install one. On the other hand, if your air conditioner is too large, then it will cool the area fast and shut down long before it clears excess moisture in the air. When sizing up a portable AC, you need to look at the BTU rating on the unit. Heat wave coming up? Don't sweat!

Portability - The unit is slim and lightweight. It also has four castor wheels and a carry handle for easier mobility and portability. The manufacturer incorporated all the features you would expect in a high-end portable AC and gave the Artica more than enough power to get the job done. And while you will definitely have to figure out how to vent your unit while cooling and drain absorbed water after dehumidification, it really doesn’t affect the mobility of the device. And if you absolutely have to move the conditioner around, the space saving design and easy roll castor wheels make the process a breeze (pun intended). But if you’re still not convinced, then the Class A energy efficiency rating should sort things right out. After all, who doesn’t enjoy saving money in form of power bills? If it breaks we'll fix it, if it develops a fault we'll get it working again. Well instruct either the manufacturer or a certified repair centre to repair it. If you feel that the noise levels might disrupt your work or sleep, it’s advisable to get portable ACs with special features that cut down the noise. This includes a low decibel rating, programmable timer, sleep modes among others. 3. Are there other ways to drain my portable AC?

It can cool a room down to 16 degrees Celsius, it can dehumidify your humid and mould-friendly indoor air and it can also operate as a fan. Another option is to vent the hot air through a dryer vent. Although many manufacturers will not recommend this method, it’s worth a shot if there’s no other alternative. 6. How do you empty water from a portable air conditioner?
