what are you going to cool? 8000BTU is pretty weak.作者: Catpiano 時間: 2010-7-16 11:20
Yes, it is a good buy for sure ..
As SB said, it works for bedroom, but not really for living room or so .. (well help)
$349 .. even u buy 3 of them, ~ $1K .. good deal la.. when I bought mine 6 yr ago .. $7xx la..作者: B2L2 時間: 2010-7-16 14:13
Plan ahead where and how you're going to vent the exhaust air (hot air) outside.
8000 btu is pretty weak and maybe good for a small bedroom. We had the 13000 btu last year and it wouldn't cool the living room much.作者: dmnf 時間: 2010-7-16 16:21
Also, very noisy.
If you use patio door for the exhaust vent, you have to bypass the alarm. Mine portable AC is just doing fan function nowadays.作者: fibbi 時間: 2010-7-16 16:48

i am using a 12000btu one for my 2xx sq ft bed room, it works ok. on the hotness days last years, it took 1+ hr to just cool down the room, so i think the 8000btu is kind of weak.
I had it for 3+ yrs, but don't need to pour water. if your a/c is not place close to window, you can buy the aluminum tube to solve the venting problem.
we have three bedrooms on upstairs, but we are only allow to put two portable a/c, otherwise we will get short circuit. so check it out first.作者: dmnf 時間: 2010-7-16 22:19
12000 btu for 2xx sq ft should be very sufficient. 8000 btu is very weak. I guess people use it to cool down the computer server room
Water tank seldom gets full so it is not a big problem. It is also very heavy. I use Danby. OK but I suspect they over claim their BTU.
