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.

How to Choose a Portable Air Conditioner

There are several factors to consider when choosing a portable air conditioner. The starting point is cooling capacity (measured in BTUs or kW), which should always match the size of the room you want to cool. Other factors include energy efficiency, noise level, additional features such as programmable timers and remote control, and the overall build quality and reliability of the unit. Some portable air conditioners also come with additional features such as heating and dehumidification. In our shop you can easily compare all our Pinguino models before making a decision.

Power (BTU and kW vs. Room Size)

The cooling power ise measured in BTUs (British Thermal Units) or in kiloWatts. As a general guideline, the choice of BTUs and kWs must be based primarily on room size: higher BTU ratings and higher kW for larger rooms and lower ratings for smaller spaces. However, it's important to note that other factors, such as insulation and heat sources, can influence the cooling requirements.
For rooms up to 85m3 you can choose an element with around 9000 BTU or 2 - 2,5 kW. For bigger spaces, up to 100m3, better to choose units from 9000 to 12000 BTUs (2,6 to 3 kW). Some of De'Longhi most powerful units can reach up to 13000 BTUs (3,3 kW) and are suitable for areas bigger than 120m3.

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.

Poraba energije

Prenosne klimatske naprave so običajno označene z oceno energijske učinkovitosti, ki kaže na njihove zmogljivosti varčevanja z energijo in pomaga uporabnikom pri sprejemanju premišljenih odločitev o njihovi učinkovitosti. V Evropi je energijska učinkovitost prenosnih klimatskih naprav običajno označena z evropskim potrdilom o energijski učinkovitosti. Ta certifikat uporablja lestvico od A+++ (najbolj učinkovito) do D (najmanj učinkovito). Države, kot sta ZDA in Avstralija, uporabljajo lastne sisteme označevanja energije, kot sta oznaki Energy Star in Energy Rating. Izbira modelov z višjimi ocenami energijske učinkovitosti lahko pomaga zmanjšati stroške električne energije in vpliva njihove uporabe na okolje.

Kako namestiti klimatsko napravo z zunanjo cevjo?

Namestitev prenosne klimatske naprave z zunanjo cevjo je zelo preprosta: izpušna cev mora biti pravilno priključena na enoto in usmerjena proti ustreznemu oknu ali prezračevalni odprtini. Namestitev enote vključuje pritrditev cevi na svoje mesto in zagotovitev dobrega tesnila, ki preprečuje vstop vročega zraka v prostor.
Najprej izberite primerno mesto za prenosno klimatsko napravo v bližini okna ali vrat in enoto postavite na ravno, stabilno površino, po možnosti v bližini vtičnice.
Nato pritrdite izpušno cev na zadnji del klimatske naprave (običajno se prilega v določeno vtičnico ali vrata) in cev potegnite proti oknu ali vratom.
Nato priključite drugi konec cevi na prezračevalni komplet okna, ki je priložen enoti.
