Smallest Spli Aircon Unit / Brand available.

[Penangfreak]

Hi there

What would be the smallest aircon unit on the market? Looking for around 5-6'000 BTU for Walkin-Closet in my home. Non-inverter.

Thanks for feedback. PF.

Going to be hard to find.

AFAIK the smallest split types are 9,000 BTU.

Look on this site http://www.topcoolair.com/ and just click on the brand names in the left column. They sell pretty much most what is on the market in Thailand...

Big C Pattay Tai, had a small unit for around 6,000/7,000 baht.

I was there yesterday, was a promotional price.

I just bought a brand new portable 12,000 BTU unit that I am now selling. I paid 12k for it but will sell it for 9k however when being used in air-con mode you need to vent it to the outside via window or something.

Looks like smallest that has compressor that you can put outside starts around 8-9000 BTUs

Anything smaller is old-styled one unit that you mount on a window.

I haven't seen any modern window-type A/C in Thailand, looks like they are no longer sold in large numbers, it might even be cheaper to go with a smallest, more conventional split compressor air cond that you can find, probably easier to find parts should it break down too.

Portable A/C might be more flexible, but it's not split compressor that you required and you can't mount them discreetly and there's a duct that you need to run outside

Another option might be to get a ceiling type a/c in the main room and run some duct into the closet

Air Con is circulating system for interior air - adding warm outside air increases the cost of operation.

The portable unit doesn't have the compressor that you can put outside, you run the duct/hose from the back of the unit outside otherwise the hot air would be in the room and you won't cool anything
