Miniaturized Condensers.
Normally, a portable air conditioning system is a unit that has miniaturized condensers that do not have to be mounted on a window or to a wall. This makes them very portable, therefore you can take your portable unit from one room to another without much fuss or trouble. On the face of it, it would appear that a portable cooling system is more money-saving, but in fact, to truly understand whether it is the more cost-effective option requires that you study its numerous pros and cons.
The plus side to using a portable air conditioning system is that such a unit can prove to be very helpful in cooling little rooms or those rooms that are not evenly shaded. And, for a cost of between 3 hundred and five hundred dollars, it is definitely cost effective because a central air unit would set you back ten times this amount.
On the downside, a portable cooling system is ineffective in cooling larger rooms, and when it is utilized consistently, it proves to be rather ineffective. Then again, such a system is more expensive to run and in fact, its cost works out to be about a dollar and twenty-five cents per hour which can become a tidy sum of cash if more than one such unit is being used. Also, a portable air conditioning system is very noisy therefore, can prove to be a nuisance.
Depending on how much area needs to be cooled, you will have to make a decision about whether a portable cooling system is the better option or the central air conditioning system. For a whole house, t Here is no question that a portable cooling system is not the right solution. Nevertheless, for little houses where there is also a great deal of shade, the portable air conditioning system can prove to be the better option. However, the best way to make use of a portable air conditioning system is to utilize it as a device that helps to enhance the cooling provided by a central or larger sized air conditioning system and not as an independent cooling solution.
In fact, a small portable air conditioning unit can also be put to best use in cooling a mobile home. Also, being self contained and very mobile, it is also well suited for cooling any area where a larger sized air conditioning unit is not able to provide enough cooling.
