What is a Portable Air Conditioner?

The portable air conditioner is an AC that has a self-contained portable system. It is a nice alternative to window units and is ideal for cooling single rooms. No need to drill your home’s wall as they lie on the floor and come with an installation kit for a quick set up. Most compact ACs have three operational modes: air conditioner, fan or dehumidifier. They also have wheels so you can move them to different rooms. So, now you know about the movable AC, let’s fight the summer heat with the Portable Air Conditioner and enjoy the summer.

Points to consider while purchasing a portable AC for your home or office:

  1. Size: The main point to consider before buying a portable AC is its size. These ACs are rated in British Thermal Units (BTUs) per hour. The higher the BTUs the higher is the coverage area.
  2. Efficiency: Look for the Energy Efficiency Ratio of the portable AC before or while buying it.
  3. Placement: It should be placed near the window.
  4. Noise Level: Portable ACs create noises as other ACs do. So, do take care of this point while buying an AC.
  5. Draining/Maintenance: You need to clean filters on time as directed. And also defrost the unit fully if ice builds up on the coils.

Benefits of Portable AC:

  • If you are living in a rented apartment, this PAC (portable air conditioner) is the best solution to beat the heat. No need to take permission from the owner for drilling the apartment.
  • If you owned a small place, this AC is meant for you.
  • They are economical.
  • It has three operational modes: air conditioner, fan, and dehumidifier.
  • As they are movable, you can place it anywhere in your home.

If you are here then you are definitely looking for a solution to beat the heat this summer. Here is the list of best Portable Air Conditioners that you can buy in India. There are some other Portable AC also but those are not available in India. You can use these AC as a portable home air conditioner or office air conditioner.

Factors to consider while buying a Portable AC for Home

1. Room Size

Before making a decision about which air conditioner you want to buy, it is of utmost importance that you plan for which room size you are going to be buying it for. The room size will decide the capacity of the air conditioner that you will need to buy.

If your room is small and the air conditioner is required for less number of people, then it makes sense for you to go for a 0.7-ton air conditioner which is the most basic capacity for an air conditioner.

But if you are looking for an air conditioner for a bigger room and for more number of people present in it, 1.0 ton should be enough to fulfill your requirements.

And if you are looking for an air conditioner which can cool a larger space, then 2 ton should be the ideal choice. It is very important for you to check this factor before buying a portable air conditioner.

2. BTU Required

It is advised to check the BTU of the portable air conditioning system before buying an air conditioner. The measurement of BTU describes the power of the air conditioner that you are purchasing.

BTU refers to the British thermal unit, which is associated with the measurement of energy. This will be able to explain the amount of time which is taken by the air conditioner to cool down a room.

Effectively higher the BTU, the more efficient the air conditioner is going to be. The amount of BTU which is mentioned should be proportionate to the size of the room. These factors should be taken care of before making the purchase.

3. Operating Modes

Most of the air conditioners which are mentioned in the list above have 3 or 4 modes of operation. This is also an essential factor for you to keep in mind before buying an air conditioner.

The different modes which will be available are a regular fan mode, this can be used for the situations when you do not require a change in the temperature of the room but you just need a breeze.

An air conditioning system will help you to cool down the temperature of the room. There is another mode which is available, this can be called dry mode. This mode is especially important for the people who are living in a monsoon climate.

During the monsoon season, the air feels heavy and sticky, this is mainly because of the moisture which is dispersed into the air. A dehumidifier helps you in extracting all this moisture out of the air and making the air dry again.

This gets rid of that clammy heat present during the monsoon season. Sometimes the 4th mode which is added is a heating mode, this can be an essential requirement for chilly regions.

4. Noise Level

One more disadvantage of the conventional air conditioner that had been added to the list was that the air conditioner was noisy and distracting. But when it comes to portable air conditioning systems, you will not have to worry about that as most of them work silently.

If the sound which they are producing is less than 50 dB(decibels), then the air conditioner is truly soundless and silent. But anything less than 65 decibels is quite fine. But if the noise levels are going beyond that range, then it is not a wise choice for you to make. 

5. Exhaust

These portable air conditioning systems work by disposing of the hot air outside the room surrounding. And hence they come with an exhaust pipe, which has to be fit through a window to expel the hot air out.

Hence before buying a portable air conditioning system, it is necessary for you to plan the place where the exhaust pipe can be fitted.

While most of these tasks are very easy to do, some of the products offer an easy installation kit. And it is important for this to be fitted properly.

A few products come ready to use without any requirement for an external installation process. Care should be taken that the exhaust pipe which has been provided is of good quality as leaking of hot air will lead to reduced efficiency of the air conditioner.

6. Water Removal System

The portable air conditioner boasts of being very easy to maintain and to use, hence it is important for you to concentrate on the type of water disposing system of the air conditioner.

Most of the air conditioners nowadays have a self evaporating system, where the water condensate which has been collected is recycled and can be used to cool down the inner tubes and can work as a coolant for the pipes.

This can be a very important factor as it will improve the efficiency of the air conditioner. But sometimes this system will not be able to recycle the condensate and during that part, you will have to empty the water which has been collected in the tank.

In some of the advanced models, the water tank also has an alarm which will indicate the time to empty the water tank. This can be an important feature, hence it is necessary for you to note down the type of water disposal system installed into the air conditioner. 

7. Cost

When compared to conventional air conditioners, portable air conditioners are phenomenally affordable. Most of these portable air conditioners begin at the price of Rs. 20,000 & go upto Rs. 37000.

Hence it is important for you to plan your budget and look into the features which are offered by them before making a decision about this. Some of these more expensive models will have some better features too. You will need to see if you can benefit from these features before making a decision.

8. Portability

Obviously, portability is an important factor to look into, before buying that product. As in a portable air conditioner, that is the most important feature. Most of the portable air conditioners use castor wheels. Castor wheels have a lot of advantages.

They are mostly 4-way wheels, which means there will not be any restrictions on the movement direction. More than this, castor wheels are also very sturdy and hence will be able to lift even a little heavy air conditioner.

9. Hose

There are again types of air conditioners which are available. They are double hose ventilated air conditioners and there are single hose air-conditioned ventilators.Single HoseDouble Hose

10. Additional Features

There are some extra features which are being offered to a lot of air conditioners. Most of the air conditioners have a feather touch control system, which will ensure that the user can access these settings effectively.

There are also options for remote control in some of these air conditioners. Additionally, some of these air conditioners also have a timer, which ensures that the air conditioner is turned off automatically once the timer reaches a preset time.

Some of the very advanced models have a self-diagnosing feature, which ensures that any repairs and fixing can happen very quickly and efficiently.

Are portable air conditioners as good as window units?

If you have the ability to window-mount, you’re likely going to have more success cooling a room. You may be able to find comparable portable AC units to those that have to be wall or window mounted, but you’re likely going to pay more for them. While portable air conditioners are meant to be easier to move about (they’re on wheels after all), they do tend to be louder and can be larger than their counterparts. And because of the exhaust hose necessary for venting, they’re not as portable as one may imagine.

Portable AC units take up floor space, so it’s important to make sure you have the extra square footage for one. You want to place the unit away from walls so the airflow isn’t restricted, but that will likely mean a longer hose and more space taken up. Which is another drawback, as they require an exhaust tube to be removed and re-installed each time it is moved to another space. For proper efficiency, you need to make sure the exhaust hose is as straight as possible as kinks can limit the effectiveness.

Do portable ACs have to be vented out a window?

Yes. A portable AC does not work without an exhaust hose. They have to be vented to the outside because they are extracting the hot air that you want released outside of the room. You can choose to vent through a window (most common), wall, ceiling, or even door in theory.

Since there are no portable ACs without an exhaust hose, you may want to consider an evaporative cooler if you want a portable unit with no venting to the outside. They require a large amount of water to cool the space and are ideal in dry climates where humidity levels are low and the air is hot.

How to find the right portable AC unit for you

While useful features and aesthetics are nice, most importantly, you’ll have to find a portable air conditioner with the correct British thermal units (BTUs) or Seasonally Adjusted Cooling Capacity (SACC) rating for capacity. Too strong and you’ll waste unnecessary power, too weak and you’ll likewise use too much energy continuously running the machine on full power and still feeling too warm.

  • BTUs: This is how conditioner capacity is measured. It equates to a particular room size for cooling.
  • SAAC: More recently, the Department of Energy (DOE) introduced this new rating which is measured in BTU per hour and is a weighted average based on a variety of test conditions. You may have to size up if your room is atypical, such as having high ceilings or being in a particularly sunny place.
