Portable Multi Function Cooling Units

Need a portable air conditioner for those hot muggy days, but you could also use a dehumidifier? And where do you store the three or four different units required to make your home more comfortable?

Multi function portable cooling units to the rescue! Many portable air conditioning units have more than one function, and some are 4 in 1 models. Not only can these units cool your home, but some have features to dehumidify, fan-cool and heat your environment as well. These can be used in bedrooms, living room, garage, wherever you have an accessible window and plug-in. All in one units - easy to store, easy to use, with no installation required.

Prices are fairly reasonable for these all-in-one appliances, in fact, you may even save money, and have the convenience of only one unit to store. These appliances are mobile and can be relocated easily to another room as required. Some things for you to consider when looking for one:

• Energy Efficiency - Check for BTU and energy ratings. Units will be more efficient if functions can operate independently.
• The dehumidifying function should operate totally independently of the cooling, so your home can be dehumidified without having to cool it as well.
• Check the exhaust mechanism that will have to be inserted in a window, to ensure it will fit where you want it to.
• The unit should be selected based on room area to cool, and model capacity recommendations.
• Some have remote control features which allow you to easily adjust comfort levels.
• Whether there are any filters or parts that will need regular replacement, and their availability.
• Durability and construction of the wheels. These units are not light, some are upwards to 80 some lbs.
• If for a bedroom, you may want quiet operation features.
• Warranty and location of service depot - should you need it.
