slipperylobster Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 I have one...and it is completely useless...at temperatures higher than 30 C. I would have to sit right next to it and use it like a fan. Paid 9000 and you can have it for half that. Would work well in a 3X3 meter room...maybe. Problem in small rooms is not only the noise, but it needs to be 18 inches out from the wall..and the exhaust hose heats the room anyways. If I would of listened to my wife...I would of had a real air conditioner...as I lost 9000 anyways. Now I still have to pay 15000 for a decent one. Total lesson.....24,000 baht Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daffy D Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Agree with "slipperylobster" they are useless. Bought for one some years ago when I was in rented rooms for 20000Bt. Gave it away after a couple of weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nidieunimaitre Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 What would be the principle on which they are based? A fridge creates heath outside and cold inside. I have many times found the heath generated by built - in fridges dangerous. Would expensive portable air conditioners use a different system? Turning heath into condense perhaps?

casualbiker Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 You can get Chinese brand TCL 9btu for as little as 9,000baht fitted... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Grumpy Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 You can get Chinese brand TCL 9btu for as little as 9,000baht fitted... Didn't know that they did AC's. I have a 6 yr old TCL TV (32in HD) in a room and it's still fine. Have a new TCL 48inch and it's better that the new Samsung, which was moved so the TCL could take it's place. Not much on the net for their AC's in Thailand. Any info on them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KMartinHandyman Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 We have a portable a/c 12k btu in a bedroom approx. 170 sq ft. Ducted outside at floor level. Noisy,,yes Will not cool room during peak heat,,yes But turned on at bedtime with an oscillating fan it makes falling asleep comfortable and easy. We sleep with a blanket nearby and pull it up after a few hours. I would be very uncomfortable without it. It's a rented shop/home and my wife would go bonkers if I paid to install a split system. Thailand is hot but not when I sleep at night now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sutty Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 I would just invest in a normal A/C unit. So called portable still need to be vented outside so the word portable is a bit misleading unless of course you put holes in walls in every room. 12 BTU Daikin fully fitted 5 yr parts and labour 13500. On offer at moment at Daikin KK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kannot Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 what is the best portable ac for a 23 sqm room?The man who bought 3 condos by demanding huge discounts actually stays in 23sq. metre bedsit with a fan. there are a lot of folk with big money who live very modestly in this world, maybe they got wealthy by doing this, some live for the thrill of making money yet have no interest in spending it...........my Wife is one of them and she still buys second hand clothes.

KevinYoung Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 There is no essential to transmit out long-lasting setting up when a portable air conditioner is used. This means dividers can stay complete! Now and again, the terms "portable air conditioner" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
