Will you be looking for an inexpensive cooling solution this coming summer to keep your home cool and comfortable?

Portable air conditioners have become very popular in recent years, simply because a portable unit can provide excellent cooling for a significantly lower cost.

 

The absolute best thing about portable air conditioning units is it doesn’t require any installation, it is free standing with fitted castors, thus can be wheeled from room to room, and is ready to use as soon as you unpack it.

 

The consumer will certainly save a lot on energy bills the reason being it can be used in one room instead of switching on a central system.  One of the most asked questions is, can a portable air conditioner effectively cool large rooms? This is dependent on the size of your unit, small units with cooling capacities of about 8000 BTU are perfect for a 300 sq. foot room.

 

There are of course on the market today different sizes and most specialists will give advice on the unit that best fits your needs, furthermore portable air conditioning is obtainable from 8000 to a huge 25000 BTU’s, the larger of which will effectively cool a 1000 sq. foot room.

 

I hear some laymen asking what is a BTU, this is British Thermal Units (BTUs) and are used to measure the size of the unit in terms of the amount of heat it can extract from the room and how fast it can achieve it, of course the higher the figure the faster it will cool your room.

 

Energy efficiency is a huge issue these days and recent developments in technology allow manufacturers to produce very efficient air conditioners, for example, a few years ago an EER (energy efficiency ratio) of 6 or 7 was considered good, now the standard is 12 or higher, and be confident that modern portable air conditioners are as energy efficient as split units.

 

Worth considering is how quiet the unit will be, this will make a huge difference if you are intending to operate it at night as you will want to get a good night’s sleep, thus would want it to be particularly quiet.

 

A spokesman for Climachill air conditioning specialists working out of their premises in Sussex said “our portable air conditioners have a top quality HITACHI compressor which maximizes output yet minimizes noise, consumers need to be aware a compressor is the main working part of an air conditioning system, and cheaper units without an established branded compressor such as HITACHI, are likely to be less efficient and noisier with a shorter lifespan” he went on to say, “we supply portable air conditioners nationwide, and we know what we are talking about, we do not only offer our knowledge and advice, but also a very competitive price”.

 

One of the most talked about features of portable air conditioners is the recycling process, this is the latest technological breakthrough for portable units, and it simply means that the unit re-uses approximately 75% of the water it creates, to aid in its cooling.

 

If you don’t have air conditioning and need to keep cool this summer portable air conditioning can be a great alternative, and it would seem that Climachill air conditioning specialists is a good place to start.
