Remote Control Included– Allows you to control unit when you’re not close to it. Powered by 2 x AA batteries (not included). Hi Serena, the 24k BTU compressor has a 24k capacity. It can run anything up to 24k; two 9,000 BTU or two 12,000 BTU, for example. Two 24k BTU units have a total 48K BTU capacity, so you can’t really run it with a 24k BTU compressor. Reply The maximum cooling power of your air con in kilowatts. The greater the kW, the larger the space the unit can cool. When you like to cool a room, you should pay attention to the technical features and energy consumption. Therefore, on Klarstein you can buy an air conditioner that is perfect for use in your home, caravan, or weekend cottage. What does BTU mean?
The running costs of around 25 to 35p per hour will seem reasonable value for money the next time temperatures rise. Most have a Class A energy rating. Hey. I have 1000 sq foot house. Currently a small unit in living Room . on other side of the house with the bedrooms were unbearably hot and humid this past summer. Is it best to replace the one unit with 20000 btu’s or two smaller units since cooling multiple rooms? Reply Hello Daryl, the biggest residential portable AC units have a maximum cooling capacity of 15,000 BTU. It’s an electrical thing; if you want 15,000 BTU+, you would need 220V instead of 115V, or alternatively, you would have to double the Amps, which is not ideal. In your situation, you would probably need two units, yes. 2 x 10,000 BTU would make sense. Maybe a combination of 14,000 BTU and 8,000 BTU would be smarter; you only run 14,000 BTU most of the time but during a really sunny day, you also turn on the 8,000 BTU unit. ReplyHello, I’m looking for a solution for our new house with casement windows. Ultimately, I know a mini-split system will be best, but it’s out of our budget right now. So, we’re looking at getting several portable units with plexiglass window covers (with cutouts for the exhaust). The master bedroom is on the 2nd floor, 425 sf, including the bathroom. Mostly 8′ ceilings with one peaked area up to 12′. I’m assuming a 12,000 or 13,000 BTU unit. Another bedroom is 160 sf, so I’m assuming an 8,000 BTU unit. We probably won’t run this one unless we have guests. Now here’s the fun part- an open concept area with the living room, dining room, kitchen, plus the hall, laundry room, a half bath, and a full bath. That area is about 900 or 1000 sf, with many windows and a cathedral ceiling in the living room up to 25 feet or more. I’m thinking 3 units- one in the living room, one in the laundry room doorway in the hall (aimed at the kitchen), and one on the upstairs landing above the living room. But I don’t know what size I’ll need for those 3 units. Any advice? Anything we need to be aware of for electrical systems? Or single vs dual hose units? We’re in the northeast US. Thanks for your help! Reply
When buying an air conditioner, you should pay attention to the wattage and the BTU/h rating. In terms of air conditioning, this is referred to as cooling capacity - 1,000 BTU/h is equivalent to 293 watts. Calculations show that about 6800 BTU are needed for 20 square metres of space. Therefore, a 7000 BTU air conditioner or portable air conditioner is best suitable for small apartments that come with 46 square metres of space. I am looking into installing a mini split but don’t know how big to get it. My kitchen is open to the living room with an attached hallway. I have a total of 5 windows. Kitchen is 17.5 X 8 living room is 16.5 X 12.5 and hallway is 17.5 X 3. All open and connected to each other. Please can someone help. ReplyScottish Highlands & Islands postcodes: AB, FK, HS, IV, KA, KW, PA, PH, ZE, LL58-LL78, IM, TR, PO30-41 Move the portable air conditioner very easily thanks to the wheels, so you can use it wherever you want. The compact size ensures that the air conditioning does not take up too much space in your room, and you also need little space to store it again after the summer. In addition, the air conditioning comes with a handy window kit, so you don't have to drill holes in the wall. Hello Selena, 20,000 BTU unit has the right size, and will deal both with hot and humid indoor air. However, 15,000+ BTU units require 220V voltage. If you will have to upgrade your electrical grid just for that, it might make more sense to buy an additional 12,000 BTU or 15,000 BTU unit. Together, they will also create a more homogenous cooling (without hot spots); this might be a problem with 1 20,000 BTU unit if it has a low airflow (measuring in CFM). Reply
