Mitsubishi Ductless Aircon Heating and Cooling Keeping It Cool.

Mitsubishi Ductless Aircon. Selecting Your Air Conditioner.

Size does matter when choosing an air conditioner, so it's important to get a unit with the cooling capacity to handle the room where it will be installed. A unit that is too small may not be able to cool a space efficiently, while an oversized air conditioner in too small a space will cycle on and off, wasting energy and decreasing the unit's ability to adequately dehumidify the room. 

 

While there are many different types and sizes to choose from, not all air conditioners are created equal. As you shop for your new air conditioner consider the following: 

 Where and how the air conditioner will be installed or used?  How large is the room where you plan to install your new unit? What special feature options are most beneficial to you? Will you be installing your new air conditioner by yourself or will you have help?

Window units are by far the most popular. Models can be installed in most single or double-hung windows and typically come with accordion panels that allow for a secure fit.

Mitsubishi Ductless Air Conditioning Reviews. Advantages of Portable Air Conditioners.

Portable air conditioners or freestanding units can be used to cool a specific area in a home such as a bedroom. They don't require any permanent installation and instead have a standard window venting kit for the exhaust hose. Many portable units are mounted on casters so you can move them freely from room to room. They come with a large, flexible hose that is attached to a window for exhausting hot air, much like a clothes dryer is vented.

 

Most portable units have reservoirs that need to be periodically emptied, though some also come with optional hookups for a drainage hose. Some new models evaporate much of the moisture and exhaust it, greatly reducing the frequency of need to empty a container. Portable air conditioners can also be used to support any central HVAC (Heating, Ventilating, Air Conditioning) systems. When choosing the right portable air conditioner be sure to measure the room size (length x width), match the room size with the BTU and check electrical requirements. Advantages: Easy to set up or relocate, Can use in multiple rooms.
