Making Better Choices For A Portable Air Conditioner

When you live in a very small space, it can become extremely uncomfortable when summer arrives and the temperature starts to soar. When a small house or apartment is not equipped with air conditioning, this can create health risks, as well as simply causing discomfort. A good way of bringing some cool relief to such a situation is with a portable air conditioner.

A portable air conditioner unit can even be a good option for owners of larger abodes who simply don't want to go to the expense of putting in a full-blown air conditioning system. The portable air conditioners can also be very cost effective for people who live alone and only want to cool off one room at a time and who would like to be able to take the device from one room into another easily.

The most common height of portable air conditioner models range from 25" to 35" tall and weigh under 100 pounds, with a range of 9,000 BTUs to 14,000 BTUs. In addition, many of these portable room air conditioners also have a heating function built into them, making them an even better investment for people who need both heating and cooling functions.
