Mobile
Air Conditioning Units
Welcome to our website. Here you
will be able to find a variety of different mobile air conditioning
units. The
decision which mobile air conditioning unit will be the best for you is
not that
hard. In fact, if you know what you want, it's not that
hard at all.
However there
are a few thing with mobile air conditioning units, that
you
should look into before you buy a portable air conditioning unit.
Nowadays the air conditioning technology has improved immensely, so
there are a lot of
feature that a mobile air conditioning unit can have. We are sure that our website will
help you choose the BEST MOBILE AIR CONDITIONING UNIT FOR YOUR NEEDS.
A Mobile air conditioning unit is an air conditioning device that is
placed on wheels, which makes it easily transportable. It can be used
at home or inside an office. Modern mobile or portable air conditioning
units are available with 1.800W – 20 000 W power output. Some of them
also have the option to be used as heating devices..
There are two main types of mobile air conditioning units you can
choose from. First type is evaporative and the other - refrigerative
mobile air
conditioning units. To help you decide which one is the most
appropriate for your needs, I will try to shortly explain how they work.
The regrigerative mobile air conditioning units can be either split
system or hose system. A mobile air conditioning appliance with a split
system is connected to an unit outside with flexible pipes. This is
similar to the most common home air conditioners, only that you do not
have to do so much construction work, to mount it on the wall outside
and drill through the walls to lay down the pipes. It is also much more practical, because you
can easily move it to the room where you need its good work at the
moment.
The hose systems on the other hand, vent heated air outside
via air ducts. They are also quite practical. The hose systems can be
either monoblock, or the more common air to air type. The monoblock
ones collects the
excessive water, but it has a downside that it stops when
it is full, thus cannot work around the clock. Perhaps the better
option is then the air to air hose system, which evaporates
the
water again. After the water has evaporated,it lets it out through a
ducted hose. The main
advantage of this system is that it can run all the time.
You can also choose between a single-duct unit or a dual-duct
unit. The first sucks air out of the same place where it is running to
cool down its
condenser. After this is done, it vents the air outside. The mentioned
air is then being replaced by other hot
air from outside of the building or from other hotter rooms. This
reduces efficiency by
a great deal . Therefore it is better to have the dual-duct air
conditioning unit. It will suck in air from the outside of the building
to cool its condenser. It will not draw in air from inside the office
or a room. This will make it much more cost and energy efficient, thus
being the better choice than the single-duct air conditioning units.
All of the mentioned mobile air conditioning units have a compressor
refrigerant system and are air-cooled. This simply means that they use air to exchange heat –
to extract this heat away from the office or room in which it is used.
This is also done in the typical household air conditioner or in a car
with air conditioning. This kind of system also dehumidifies the air
while it is cooling it. It is constantly collecting the water condensed
from the cooled air and simultaneously produces hot air which is then
vented outside the cooling area. This
is the main principle of mobile air conditioning units – they transfer
the heat from the air in the room where they are operating to the
outside air.
The other main type of
mobile air conditioners is the evaporative air conditioners which are
some times called coolers.
People often refer to these coolers as swamp air conditioning
units. The main difference
with the refrigerative air conditioners is, that they do not have the
condenser and the
compressor. They drop liquid water on cooling fins, where
it evaporates into the cooling room or area. This evaporated water then
absorbs quite a lot of heat, which as a consequence cools the air. It
is
similar to the mechanism of sweating. The disadvantage of this system
is that the cooled down air can be quite humid, so this is appropriate
only for
dry climates where the humidity is low. However, they also have a few
advantages. They don't
need
hoses to transfer the heat outside of the cooling area, which makes
them
the only truly mobile air conditioning units. They are also very
affordable, have low installation prices and don't consume as much
energy as the other type of air conditioners - the
refrigerative air conditioners.
