Amcor SF8000E-V3 Portable Air Conditioning Unit Mobile Air Conditioner for Rooms and Offices up to 18 sqm

Product Information

With a sleep mode for quieter operation overnight and suited to rooms up to 20m², this smart air conditioner also doubles up as a handy dehumidifier to prevent mould and mildew too. Portable air cons are very power hungry, and an extension cord may be unable to cope with the demand.

Always weigh out the higher cost of energy efficient air conditioners against the potential mountain of savings you will make to find out if the unit is ideal for you. It is a compact portable air conditioner, manufactured by a respectable German brand, that comes with three integrated functions. Not only does it have all the features you need to make it through the day and night, but the manufacturer tried as hard as possible to improve the user-friendliness. As an air conditioner, the EL112 is easy to use; just set your desired temperature and let it do its stuff.

This is clearly evident in their Inventor Portable Air Conditioner that outperforms most models in its class. In addition to a cooling capacity that can cool 18sqm, the SF8000E also works as a fan and dehumidifier with 4 mode settings. This great value air conditioner boasts an impressive cooling capacity of 7,000 BTU which is more than enough to cool rooms up to 18 sqm. A 9,000BTU unit will handle a space of approximately 45 cubic metres, while a 12,000BTU unit could go up to 90 cubic metres.

BTU rating: 12000 BTU/hour | Functions: Air conditioner, dehumidifier and fan | Energy rating: A | Noise level: 51 - 53dB | Speed settings: 3 | Hose length: 1. With a modern and stylish design, this energy-efficient heat pump air conditioner can tackle rooms of up to 40m, making it a great option for cooling large bedrooms or a shared upstairs space if your pedestal fan isn’t quite powerful enough to chill big areas.This model uses R290 refrigerant which is 690 times friendly to the environment than the outdated versions. Most PACs will come with a window fixing kit to block any gap, but this might only be suitable for a sash window, sliding door or hinged top window. Here's the important part: make sure the other end of the hose is directed outside, preferably through a slightly open window or a vent hole. While fans do come much cheaper, they blow air around the room giving you a welcome breeze, instead of actively lowering the air temperature like an AC unit. It comes with the same CST remote control, which support’s DeLonghi’s myEcoReal technology to keep temperature and humidity at a comfortable level, while reducing energy consumption and noise.

However, take any claims of silent running with a pinch of salt; noise levels hit 52dB at full tilt, falling to 46dB once the temperature had stabilised.If you’re planning to use the dehumidifier function, you will also need to connect the supplied outlet hose and keep a bucket or container for drainage; there’s no internal tank. Alternatively, you could turn up the AC, but the electricity bills are more likely to give you a stroke long before the heat does.
