There are a couple of different options when it comes to portable air conditioners, but a dual hose portable air conditioner may be the better choice. This is a unit that uses one hose to draw in hot air to be cooled, while a separate hose is used to expel exhaust. Traditional single hose units use the one hose to both draw in air and expel exhaust. Here are a few advantages of the dual hose system.
Cools Faster
Since the unit doesn’t have to stop cooling air to expel exhaust, it can continually cool the air. This helps it to start cooling a room immediately and eliminates the need to pause cooling in order to release exhaust. As a result, the dual hose system is better for keeping the room cool.
More Energy Efficient
Since the unit doesn’t need to switch between cooling and exhaust, it will use less energy to perform the same function. This helps it run more efficiently. Energy usage and the cost of utilities will all be lower when you switch to this type of unit.
Easier to Keep a Room Cool
Once a dual hose portable air conditioner is set up, it’s easy to move it around or change the direction in which it’s facing. This helps you cool a particular area and allows you to save space. It’s similar to a portable fan except that it cools the air instead of simply pushing warm air around the room.
