How to purchasing a portable air conditioner.
proper air conditioner, determine the square footage of the room you want to cool
room length by its width. You also need to know the air conditioner's BTU (British Thermal Unit) rating,
which indicates the amount of heat it can remove from a room. A higher number means more cooling
power for a larger room. (Be sure you are comparing only newer models to each other older models may
appear to have a higher capacity, but are actually the same). Be sure to "size up" if your portable air
conditioner will be placed in a very sunny room, in a kitchen, or in a room with high ceilings. After you've
found the right cooling capacity or your room, you can look at other features.
Why newer products have lower cooling capacity than older models.
Federal regulations require manufacturers to calculate cooling capacity based on a speci c test
procedure, which was changed just this year.
BTUs may be lower, the actual cooling capacity of the air conditioners has not changed.
What is SACC ?
SACC is the representative value of Seasonally Adjusted Cooling Capacity, in Btu/h, as determined in
accordance with the DOE test procedure at title 10 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 430, subpart B,
appendix CC and applicable sampling plans.
