The parterre of portable air conditioners on the market is really very vast, so we strongly advise you to choose the product with the utmost attention, dedicating time not only to the decision of a sensible budget but also in the search for features and functionalities that will satisfy you. full.

Specific type, size, power, additional features and much more are just a taste of all the information that you will have to carefully evaluate during the purchase phase. This is not only to avoid buying a poor conditioner, which ends up not cooling enough or does not last long, but also because you will be able to take home an article tailored for you.

How it works, pros and cons

The center of this device is the compressor which cools the refrigerant charge which is then circulated in a large coil. A fan sucks in the hot air from the environment and forces it to pass through the cold coil, obtaining a double effect: the air is reintroduced into the cooler environment and part of the humidity, which condenses upon contact with the cold metal of the serpentine, is canceled. The hot air resulting from the operation of the compressor is conveyed out of the house through the exhaust pipe. The main advantage of a portable air conditioner is the ability to move it where it is needed most: in the living room during the day, in the bedroom at night. On the other hand, this very characteristic can be considered a limit: a portable air conditioner alone cannot cool the whole house.

Pipe or tank

As you have understood, most some air conditioners need a flexible hose to expel hot air during operations. In some devices, this step can also take place without the use of your classic soft that discharges to the outside, which is why, in some models it is possible to find a practical tank that accumulates the condensate and then be emptied. Obviously the maintenance and the time spent in the two types of products is very different, so make sure you choose well.

Environment

Portable air conditioners are perfect for cooling in small / medium areas of a home, with few exceptions able to compensate for the presence of a fixed device. For this reason, the volume of the room to be refreshed is very important, because at this point it is recommended to move to a fixed solution, if the area is beyond the capacity of a portable device.

Space requirement

As the word itself says, portable air conditioners are called such due to their generally small size, which therefore allows them to be positioned in various rooms of the home using wheels or handles. If, on the other hand, the device is too large and bulky, the movement becomes challenging and would be the key feature of these models. The dimensions of the air conditioner must always be related to the space available to you: for this reason, we recommend that you always check the dimensions of both the room you want to refresh, and the closet or corner where you want to store it when you don't need it. On the market you can find different models of portable air conditioners: most of them have a parallelepiped shape developed vertically, whose proportions should ensure stability and the smallest possible footprint.

Timer

The timer allows you to tune your portable device to the clock and then turn it on or off during certain times. A feature like this is essential because you may also find yourself needing an air conditioner at times when no one is at home or during the night, to keep the environment as cool and dehumidified as possible.

Power

We have already reported that the drop in ambient temperature caused by portable air conditioners is expressed in BTU, and therefore it is good to always keep in mind the relationship between the right volumes of the rooms and therefore the necessary power. In fact, remember that up to 25 square meters you will need a device of at least 9,000 BTUs, while those capable of generating 12,000 BTUs are recommended as well. For spaces over 60 square meters, an 18,000 BTU air conditioner is recommended.

Noise

The operation of the air conditioners is. very complex, and sometimes it happens to be in the presence of noisy devices and that, during the day in a room full of people, does not present any problem, but once activated in the evening, they cannot even allow you to activate them while you sleep. It is in fact a good habit to check what the noise works of a device are, so that you can use it at night without problems.

Heating

We conclude our review of key points for selecting a portable air conditioner reminding you that some devices are able to reverse their operation, and therefore the winter can throw hot air into the environment. Also in this feature the pipe or the exhaust to the outside is required, but it is an essential feature for the devices, especially if placed in second homes, and which could be used to better amortize the investment made with the purchase. br>

Consumption

Portable air conditioners consume a lot of electricity and this is already well known to all. For this reason, it is more than essential to consider purchasing a product that costs slightly more but tends to consume less energy, guaranteeing you huge savings in the long run. To find out this information, just keep in mind the energy class of the portable air conditioner you want to buy. Below is a short list that includes all 10 levels:

Class A4: less than or equal to 0.40 EPgl Class A3: greater than 0.40 EPgl and less than or equal to 0.60 EPgl Class A2 : greater than 0.60 EPgl and less than or equal to 0.80 EPgl Class A1: greater than 0.80 EPgl and less than or equal to 1.00 EPgl Class B: greater than 1.00 EPgl and less than or equal to 1, 20 EPgl Class C: greater than 1.20 EPgl and less than or equal to 1.50 EPgl Class D: greater than 1.50 EPgl and less than or equal to 2.00 EPgl Class E: greater than 2.00 EPgl and less than or equal to 2.60 EPgl Class F: greater than 2.60 EPgl and less than or equal to 3.50 EPgl Class G: greater than 3.50 EPgl Obviously, the closer the energy class is to A4 the better, since it is of the most efficient categories and which consequently will make you save a lot on your bill compared to classes ranging from C to G.
