Product Information

The easiest and most common way to vent your portable air conditioner is through a traditional window in your home. Condensation is the conversion of vapor to liquid. It occurs when the air becomes saturated with moisture and releases it in the form of water. It is recognised by the wet mist that sometimes clouds the interior glass on your homes windows. The fact that one of the drainage hose outlets was positioned midway down the rear of the unit made it much easier to drain than alternative models I've tested in which the outlet is much lower down. I put the Dry Mode to use on a very muggy rainy day and noticed an almost immediate improvement in the moisture levels in the room. During snowy weather, the ventilation flap should be kept closed. If the ventilation flat is open, the warm air inside the building will flow out and melt the snow above the roof window. The melted snow will freeze on the window covers and the make the window difficult to open. If you want to air the room, the window must only be opened briefly.

I would recommend it to anyone looking to cool down a small bedroom, home office, nursery, or similar over the summer. It doesn’t take up too much space to store either and is very easy to set up and use. Unlike most cooling units this model can be moved alone if you live by yourself, is easy to reposition thanks to its castor wheels, and is a great slimline option to stow away in the car and take to the caravan or a holiday let to keep cool in the summer heat. When in Cool Mode on High setting, and with the temperature set as 16, it brought the temperature down by approximately two degree Celsius in a super speedy ten minutes. (This was with the thermometer positioned at the side of the room close to the unit). A really immediate and noticeable impact.

It's not the most powerful option out there in terms of BTU, but Meaco offers plenty of alternative models, ranging from this the smallest 7000BTU through to a 14000BTU model. You do this by removing the two filters at the rear of the unit and then using a hoover to clean both sides. Alternatively they can be cleaned with warm water. To vent your portable air conditioner through a drop-ceiling, just cut a hole in a ceiling panel that can accommodate the exhaust hose.As mentioned, this unit is also very lightweight compared to most portable air con units we've tested. The flipside of that is that the build quality does feels slightly flimsier than some alternative units I've tested.
