Penangfreak Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monty Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 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... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrZM Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Big C Pattay Tai, had a small unit for around 6,000/7,000 baht. I was there yesterday, was a promotional price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gone Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 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.

brummiebob Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 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 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Air Con is circulating system for interior air - adding warm outside air increases the cost of operation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
