Practically, there are several other factors that impact how big a room will an 8,000 BTU air conditioner cool (isolation, ceiling height, sun exposure, and so on). To avoid a too weak cooling effect, we should take into account 25 BTU or even 30 BTU per square foot. We find a lot of customers get these units for bedrooms,” says Appliance Direct’s Jake Crossley. “7,000 BTUs is the output we would recommend for rooms up to 18 square metres. Any larger and you won’t get the full benefit.” All costs includes parts, labour, call out and delivery charges, so you can rest assured there are no hidden costs. In general, portable AC units are the most popular. This is because they can be moved from room to room; you can have an 18×18 room and cool it, and then move to another 16×16 room and move that one as well. You just unplug the 8,000 BTU portable AC and plugin it in a 115V outlet in another room. Portable 8,000 BTU AC units are easier to install but window units have a higher energy-efficiency (on average). I tested the unit over a couple of humid days in my home office and bedroom, both of which measure around 26m2, the upper volume limit for the unit. Weighing in at 23.5kg it is – just – possible to get the unit up a flight of stairs single-handed, but nul points to Meaco for the shallow finger-grips.

Here is a table of how many watts do portable air conditioners use: Portable AC Unit Capacity (in BTU): You can make air blow at different angles by pressing a button on the remote to swing the swiveling upper panel up and down, or let the horizontal louvers cool your room in two different directions. Protect your Air Conditioner against the cost and hassle of unexpected failure and give yourself some added peace of mind with one of our great value extended warranties! I have a complicated air conditioning situation. I live in southwest Missouri, with a hot, humid climate in the summer. The house, which I grew up in, is a one-and-a-half-story 1920s Craftsman-style house (not true Craftsman), with central air. Like my father, I keep the door at the bottom of the stairs closed to save on utilities. The upstairs consists of two bedrooms, which are divided by a hallway, which gives onto a stairwell from the gabled landing. The ceilings measure 7’3/4″ at their highest (in the two bedrooms, there are sloping ceilings on either side). The bedroom doors face each other, and the two windows in the south bedroom more or less face the single window in the north one.The BTU needed to cool down a room of known footage that can be calculated. According to The U.S. Department Of Energy recommendation for the size of room air conditioners: I am looking for a portable air conditioner, which will be vented through the wall and I have used various BTU calculators that suggest 5000 BTU. Adding 10% for the direction of the bedroom gives 5500 BTU, so 6000 BTU but these are few and far between, so I am looking at 7000 BTU. Not too small. You don’t want to get hot in the summer because you bought a 6,000 BTU portable air conditioner for a 1,000 sq ft apartment.

The AC is easy to move, thanks to being reasonably sized and not weighing that much (about the same as the SereneLife unit). The short exhaust hose and power cord limit where you can place the unit, though. The air vents swivel and swing to distribute cool air fast instead of blowing it towards only one spot. Owners also like the self-evaporating mechanism that has some running it for six months in humid rooms without needing to empty the condensate. Portable units running of 110/120V go up to 15,000 BTU (above that, you’ll need 220/240V voltage). Obviously, dual hose units are better (higher efficiency, lower long-term costs; based on EER rating).Central air conditioners or the new ductless mini-split AC units produce a minimum of 9,000 BTU. There are only two types of air conditioners that produce 8,000 BTU of cooling output:
