To test the portable air conditioner, we heat the climate -controlled room to 92 degrees. After reaching the room 92 degrees, we turn off the heat and convert the portable AC unit into a cool mode, with medium fan speed and a fixed temperature of 68 degrees. We run the unit for 2 hours and 30 minutes and repeat the same test twice in an AC unit. Then we use the data collected during the test to measure two things:
- Portable Air Conditioner how permanently remains within 5 % of 68 degrees
- How permanently kept the room within 5 % of the individual lowest temperature of the AC unit
Once we have this information, we compare the results of the units to find out which people have maintained a long -standing temperature. We also see which units have maintained their individual low temperatures for a long time. We did this because if no unit reaches 68 degrees in the allotted time, we still have been able to find out how permanently maintains the lowest temperature it has achieved. The more percent, the unit performs better.
When looking at the performance, it is important to note that the units that we have experienced do not have the same sunglasses, so direct performance is not the only thing when we look at the best portable air conditioner list. We also look at the features and other options of a unit regarding its cost and features to determine its overall price.
When we do not compare direct performance, we do not compare direct performance when we 5,500-BTU frigidaire FHPC082AC1 vs. 12,000-BTU Map14HS1TBL vs 12,000-BTU Midea Midea Midea Midea Map14HS1TBL. For this reason, we compared the performance results in two groups based on the coverage area. Specifically, we compared small media, Black+Decker, Fregidier, Bhunur and GE model (all of which are 350 square feet of coverage area against each other) and large black+decker, Winter, Haier, LG and media models (of which 500 to 550 square feet of coverage areas).
