Meaco MeacoCool MC Series 12,000R Portable Air Conditioner - Powerful Portable Air Conditioner, Energy Efficient with Two Window Venting Kits included

Product Information

The Meaco range has an Energy Rating of A, meaning you can run them without worrying about the effect on your bills, and they have also reduced the running noise, giving you a quieter air conditioning unit to see you through the warmer months. It’s a shame the louvre doesn’t go lower so you can sit in front of the air flow to keep extra cool. The second is the flexible window kit which comprises a large piece of white fabric and a roll of adhesive Velcro which you can use on all other types of windows/doors.

You will also need to fit the supplied drainage hose to the rear of the unit when in Dry mode so excess water can drain away. Plus, this lower BTU machine means lower energy consumption, with the MeacoCool MC Series 7000BTU Portable Air Conditioner's 780W power usage making running costs lower than most mobile air con units. For added convenience, the whole shebang can also be operated using the supplied remote control which mirrors the controls on the unit.As the law of conservation of energy states, energy (in this case heat) can only be transformed or transferred from one form to another. Fan Mode operates in much of the same way as a typical home fan by circulating air rather than cooling it.

QUALITY ASSURED - Comes with a two-year parts and labour warranty from Meaco, the UK's leading air cooling and dehumidifier manufacturer. This is a strange one because it seems to follow the same parameters as the Cool mode, with a temperature range from 16˚C to 32˚C. The trouble is that if you don’t expel the hot air, the machine’s efficiency will be cancelled out and it will struggle to lower the temperature in the room.No complaints at all - even after 2 hours running you can feel the difference in the next rooms as well. By removing hot and humid air, it reduces relative humidity which helps to keep the environment comfortable - whether it is your home gym, your conservatory, or even your offices. The MC Series 12000 BTU portable air conditioner is operated through the control panel on the top of the unit as well as an accompanying remote, which both have similar buttons. All MeacoCool air conditioning units come with a 3 year exclusive warranty only available from us for ease of mind when purchasing.

Once you actually open it up, it’s a heck of a lot easier to move around, thanks to the casters underneath – though they’re not very carpet-friendly. You can use the same drainage hose that you’d use on Dry Mode to empty this, which may be necessary on very humid days. The parts including the cord need to be away from water and you don’t even need to be that close to a plug if you employ an extension cord as long as it is the appropriate voltage. All MeacoCool air conditioning units come with a 3 year exclusive warranty only available from Air Con Centre for ease of mind when purchasing. However, when a heatwave strikes, outside is often hotter than inside, so for some the extra running costs and energy consumption of a portable air conditioner will be worth the added expense for short periods of the year.We don’t have a sliding door or window for me to try the fixed window plates on, however, this method also looks very straightforward. To get the very best use out of the MeacoCool air conditioning range, we recommend pre-cooling rooms before they need to be used so that they are nice and cool for when they do need to be used. It is very important to have the drainage hose employed for this connecting to some sort of bucket or drain as the water needs to have a way of running out. But as is the case with other Meaco products that we’ve tried in the past, it comes complete with a step-by-step instructions book that has simple language and pictures alongside it to ease the entire process.

Cool is the main air-con setting and, as is the case the majority of portable AC, the lowest temperature that can be set is 16˚C. You can read more about BTU’s and air-con in general in our Portable Air Conditioner vs Evaporative Cooler guide but in a brief nutshell, a BTU is an international measurement used to illustrate the cooling capacity of an air-con appliance, so the more BTUs the unit has the more efficient it will be at cooling a room.

The hard-working device is no wallflower both in its large size and multitude of functions yet does what it is suppose to and does it well.
