Residential units are unsuitable and will not work for commercial buildings.  A residential portable air conditioner has plastic housing, small condensate tanks, or they evaporate the condensation on the unit’s hot coils, exhausting it into the warm air discharge duct.  A window to exhaust the warm air created by the air conditioner is required to create actual air conditioning because air conditioners create more hot air than they do cold air.  Because electrical amperage is limited in residences, the residential portable units are typically available in no more than 12,000 BTU’s (1 Ton of cooling capacity).  The commercial wheeled portable air conditioners will have larger condensate tanks than residential units, in addition the commercial units tend to have sturdier sheet metal cabinets or housings.

As a portable air conditioning unit, the operation is similar to a window air conditioner, it pulls air into a condenser, cools it, and circulates it back into the room. However the unit is typically on wheels and in a self contained cabinet making for ease of portability. Like any air conditioning unit, a portable air conditioner’s performance capabilities are measured in British Thermal Units (BTU). Most spot coolers range from 12,000 BTU to 100,000 BTU although some large commercial units can go up to 1,000,000 BTU or more.  Note that 12,000 BTU is also known as 1 Ton of cooling capacity.

A portable air conditioner cools and dehumidifies a room or area of a building where either no air conditioning exists or additional air conditioning is required. Some large industrial buildings have areas where no air conditioning exists or central air conditioning units fail. A portable air conditioner can provide localized or temporary cooling.  Rooms with large amounts of electronic equipment such as server rooms, computer rooms, and media rooms generate excessive heat.  A portable air conditioner can solve this problem as well.

Many hospitals, as well as other businesses, elect to use a portable air conditioner for emergency purposes.

A portable air conditioner may also be used to cool a home. In homes with no central air conditioning, usually cooler climates, an owner or tenant may choose to use a portable air conditioner. Although a portable air conditioner may cost more than a window unit it may provide greater flexibility, efficiency and less effort to install and use.

Things we will need to know to properly size your project:

• Size of room to be cooled – Length x Width x Height
• Voltage Available – 115, 208/230 or 460
• Type of ceiling – drop down plenum (we will need a place to exhaust heat)
• Where can we drain condensate? Will we need tanks or a pump?
• What kind of equipment is in the room, such as server racks, telephone switching equipment, power supply backups, any types of heat generating equipment and people.
• Are there any windows in the room?
