Whynter arc 12sdh review

If your answer is yes, then this air conditioner is a suitable option. Nevertheless, it is important to note that ventilations can have an effect on the effectiveness of your air conditioner.

This auto-drain technology minimizes the accumulation of the condensate and enhances the overall efficiency of the system. The three operational modes help you to achieve your desired environment. If you select the cooling mode, the unit cools and dehumidifies your room. The dehumidifying option dehumidifies the room without cooling. Lastly, the fan mode offers 4 fan speeds and circulates the air in your room. A good point in our review — duely noted by the Air Geeks. It uses the two hoses to draw warm air that is cooled to provide your room with cool air.

Warm and humid air is expelled through the exhaust hose. The window kit is designed to fit in most standard windows. With minimum modifications, the window kit can also be fitted in dropped ceilings and wall openings. The activated carbon filter is responsible for ensuring that your room gets odor-free air while the pre-filter traps airborne particles. Are you looking for an environment-friendly cooling system?

Need help? The Arcsdh is almost identical to this unit except that it comes with an 11, BTU heat pump. This feature allows you to use it year round which can be a major plus. To heat the room it operates as a reverse air conditioner and will still need to be vented out a window.

It can also save you money on your electricity bill to run the heat mode instead of your furnace. The drawback is that when the temperatures drop below 41 degrees, the unit can no longer be operated with the vent out the window because it is too cold. Essentially, it is pulling in air to warm and when the air outside is too cold, it cannot warm it.

If you live in Minnesota a traditional space heater is going to be better option, but someone in California will find this works well to ward off the chill in the winter. This unit is different from the other two I have mentioned, so I will just cover the major attributes and disadvantages of this model.

The smaller footprint of this model is desirable because it may fit in a space in your home or office where larger portable air conditioners cannot. Another positive is that it consumes less power than the other models. I see three possible negatives of the Arcs. The first is minor and that is that it has a smaller dehumidifying capacity than the Arcsd.

This is not a significant difference though. The second is that it does not have the heat function. This may or may not be a drawback for you depending on whether you really need a unit with this capability. The big difference with the Arcs is that is a single hose model.

As previously described, this method of air intake and exhaust is not as efficient as the dual hose method. Whynter provides a one year limited warranty and a three year warranty on the compressor. This is a decent warranty but the Honeywell and DeLonghi products I have reviewed provide better warranties for their portable air conditioners. The aspects that I really like about the Arcsd is that it is a quiet, dual hose portable air conditioner. The majority of people who own and review this model speak very highly of it and that is saying something because most people only take the time to write a review when they are dissatisfied with a product.
