Portable Air Conditioners
Pinguino De'Longhi

Pinguno Portable Air Conditioners are all you need to keep
you and your house cool this summer.

What is a Portable Air Conditioner? How does it work?

Portable air conditioners are standalone units that provide cooling for specific areas or rooms. They consist of a compressor, condenser, evaporator, and a fan. They work by extracting warm air from the room, cooling it through the refrigeration cycle, and then releasing cool air back into the space. The hot air is typically vented out through an exhaust hose that can be placed near a window or another suitable outlet.

Wie wählen Sie ein mobiles Klimagerät aus?

Bei der Auswahl eines tragbaren Klimagerätes sind mehrere Faktoren zu berücksichtigen. Ausgangspunkt ist die Kühlleistung (gemessen in BTU oder kW), die immer der Grösse des zu kühlenden Raumes entsprechen sollte. Weitere Faktoren sind die Energieeffizienz, der Geräuschpegel, Zusatzfunktionen wie programmierbare Timer und Fernbedienung sowie die allgemeine Verarbeitungsqualität und Zuverlässigkeit des Gerätes. Einige mobile Klimageräte verfügen auch über Zusatzfunktionen wie Heizen und Entfeuchtung. In unserem Shop können Sie alle Pinguino-Modelle vergleichen, bevor Sie sich entscheiden.

Leistung (BTU und kW vs. Raumgrösse)

Die Kühlleistung wird in BTU (British Thermal Units) oder in Kilowatt gemessen. Als allgemeine Richtlinie gilt, dass die Wahl der BTUs und kWs in erster Linie von der Raumgrösse abhängen sollte: höhere BTU- und kW-Werte für grössere Räume und niedrigere Werte für kleinere Räume. Es ist jedoch zu beachten, dass auch andere Faktoren wie Isolierung und Wärmequellen den Kühlbedarf beeinflussen können.
Für Räume bis 85 m3 kann ein Gerät mit ca. 9000 BTU oder 2–2,5 kW gewählt werden. Für grössere Räume bis zu 100 m3 sollten Sie Geräte mit 9000 bis 12 000 BTU (2,6 bis 3 kW) wählen. Einige der leistungsstärksten Geräte von De'Longhi erreichen bis zu 13 000 BTU (3,3 kW) und sind für Räume über 120 m3 geeignet.

Heating Function and Dehumidification Function

The dehumidification function helps to remove excess moisture from the air, improving comfort and reducing the risk of mould growth. This function can be used, for example, in a very humid room or at certain times of the year when the humidity is particularly high. The heating function, available on the De'Longhi PAC EL92HP, allows the appliance to provide warmth during the colder months, making it a versatile appliance that can be used all year round.

Noise

Noise levels can vary between models, and it's important to choose a unit with a noise level that is tolerable for the intended usage, especially if the air conditioner will be used in bedrooms or other quiet areas. Look for models that feature a low-decibel operation or include noise-reducing technologies.

Energy Consumption

Portable air conditioners are usually labelled with an energy efficiency rating that indicates their energy saving capabilities and helps users make informed choices about their efficiency. In Europe, the energy efficiency of portable air conditioners is usually indicated by the European Energy Efficiency Certificate. This certificate uses a scale from A+++ (most efficient) to D (least efficient). Countries such as the United States and Australia use their own energy labelling systems, such as the Energy Star rating and the Energy Rating Label respectively. Choosing models with higher energy efficiency ratings can help minimise electricity costs and reduce the environmental impact of their use.

How to Install an Air Conditioner with external hose?

Installing a portable air conditioner with an external hose is really simple: the exhaust hose must be properly connected to the unit and directed towards a suitable window or ventilation opening. Setting up the unit involves securing the hose in place and ensuring a good seal to prevent hot air from entering the room.
First select a suitable location for the portable air conditioner near a window or door and place the unit on a flat, stable surface, preferably near a power outlet.
Then attach the exhaust hose to the back of the air conditioner (it usually fits into a designated outlet or port) and extend the hose towards the window or door.
Then connect the other end of the hose to the window ventilation kit supplied with the unit.

How much does an Air Conditioner cost?

The price of an Air Conditioner can vary depending on factors such as cooling capacity, additional features, and energy efficiency. Higher-quality and more feature-rich models may come with a higher price tag but can provide better performance and durability in the long run.
