Whynter Portable Air Conditioner with Dehumidifier and Fan for Rooms Up to 500 Square Feet, Includes Activated Carbon Filter & Storage Bag, Platinum/Black

Product Information

Cooling is the primary job of the Honeywell MM14CCS 14,000 BTU, and it accomplishes without sweating the task. If you're seeking an all-around AC unit that won't break the bank, we recommend the SereneLife SLPAC10. I’m going to have to see if having multiple hoses would be good for us, or what kind of system we should get! Portable air conditioners come in various designs, but the primary difference between them comes down to the hose system. Just tried the air con unit and i must say it is a fantastic product for the money, you will not find anything better at this cost, my father in law bought a similar air con unit (same BTU) but mine completely blows it away.

This 10,000 BTU unit is allegedly effective for areas up to 350 square feet but only dropped the temperature in our smaller room by six degrees after 60 minutes. In a single hose design more unfiltered air is entering the unit and therefore shortens the length at which your unit’s filter will remove allergens from the expelled air. Refrigerant – Go green and stay cool with this small air conditioner’s R410A refrigerant and reusable filters.

Just before sleep I’d fire it up as low as possible with the door closed to the bedroom and it made such a difference to being able to sleep. In particular, the ease of removing and installing the window insert impressed us with the SereneLife, which is what makes it so portable. You also get to choose from three fan speeds (high, medium, and low) and three heating speeds (high, medium, and low).

A front-facing, feather-touch control panel and display unique to the Honeywell Classic Series and quiet operation at under 54 decibels are other noteworthy features. Both single-hose and dual-hose models have advantages, so you’ll need to consider your needs and budget before purchasing. Based on a variable rate of 30p per kWh (which is accurate for July 2023) this will cost about 40p per hour to run (up 6p per hour since I last updated this review, but lower than it would have been October through to July).Though single hose units may tend to be slightly less expensive, the investment in the extra hose is definitely worth the extra cost. Sure, it's easy to find an inexpensive fan that circulates air around a room, but this unit sucks in the hot air and literally sends it out the window where it belongs. Only with completely closed circulation (that means no intake grille besides the hoses) can even cooling take place. Heat pumps also have different kinds of blowers; single hose/Fixed-speed, multiple-speed, and variable-speed. One of the bigger (BTU-wise) options on this list, the EdgeStar AP14001HS is a 14,000 BTU portable (ASHRAE-128 Standard) / 8,800 BTU portable (DOE 2017 Standards) AC + Heat Pump designed for spaces up to 525 square feet.

I appreciated this 5-inch remote, but it's easy to lose, like my diminutive Apple TV remote, and I was really hoping that Honeywell MM14CCS would jump further into the Internet of Things world with a smartphone app. The portable air conditioner offers full thermostatic control (61F – 89F cooling)/(61F – 77F heating). To view the purposes they believe they have legitimate interest for, or to object to this data processing use the vendor list link below. You'll want to ensure that the unit of your choosing is portable and cool enough for your intended uses. While these units all have different BTU and room size ratings, our 161 square foot test room was well within the listed performance ratings of each product.That's the one advantage of the Whynter 14,000 BTU Dual Hose Portable Air Conditioner, which has two hoses that stretch 60 inches. However, with a dual hose, the intake hose outright draws outside air directly into the hose itself.
