 Things To Consider Before Purchasing A Portable Air Conditioner

Portable air conditioners are not just a clever choice for people who do not own an AC unit, they are also a lovely way to save money and reduce the amount of energy you generally use.

Portable Air Conditioners, like most other ACs, vary in types and quality. Although most portable air coolers are relatively functional and effective, it is always essential to get the exact type that suits your need. The numerous amount of portable air conditioners options available in the market today can be very tiring. Here are some factors to consider when buying a Portable Air conditioner.

• Consider the Cost – Portable AC units can range from around N25, 000 to over a hundred thousand depending on the type and version. Some even go close to N150, 000 for units for commercial use. The variance in cost can be as a result of some different factors, the main of which is the power of the Air conditioner. If you want a portable Air Con that will cool a large living room space or a mini hall, then you should expect to send more than for one that is designed for a small bedroom or small living room.
• Consider the Size – This is another important factor to consider when deciding on a particular portable Air Con to get. Some people purchase portable air conditioners with the purpose of using them wholly in one room. For others, the “portable” measure only matters as they want to be able to move their AC unit from one place to the other. If you are a user in the latter category, then it is vital to choose an air conditioner that is relatively easy to move. You need to take cognisance of both the size and the weight of the air conditioner. Check whether it will fit into your car to move from one place to the other and where it is easy to lift or in certain cases, drive from one room to the other.
• Consider the Noise Level – You should always consider this factor, whether you are going for split unit or portable mobile AC. Noise is one thing peculiar to most ACs. For the most part, this noise will be negligible and mostly labelled as “background noise” that you might not even notice. However, it is still an vital factor to note while shopping for a portable air conditioner.
• Consider the Ease of Installation – Generally, portable Air conditioners are not such a big deal to install. In fact, they are the easiest of all types of AC to place. However, it is still vital to note the installation process of the portable AC you are going for.
