  • Page 7 - English - : INTRODUCTION WHAT SHOULD I LOOK FOR WHEN PURCHASING A PORTABLE AIR CONDITIONER The right air condioner helps you cool a room eciently An undersized unit wont cool adequately while one thats too large will not remove enough humidity leaving the air feeling damp To nd the proper air condioner determine the square footage of the room y ou want to cool by mulplying the room length by its width You also need to know the air condioners BTU Brish Thermal Unit rang which indicates the amount of heat it can remove from a room Why is the cooling capacity lower on newer models than on older units A higher number means more cooling power for a larger room Be sure you are comparing only newer models to each other older models may appear to have a higher capacity but are actually the same Be sure to size up if your portable air condioner will be placed in a very sunny room in a kitchen or in a room with high ceilings Aer youve found the right cooling capacity for your room you can look at other features WHY IS THE COOLING CAPACITY LOWER ON NEWER MODELS THAN OLDER MODELS Federal regulaons require manufacturers to calculate cooling capacity based on a specic test procedure which was changed just this year Models manufactured before 2017 were tested under a dierent procedure and cooling capacity is measured dierently than in previous models So while the BTUs may be lower the actual cooling capacity of the air condioners has not changed WHAT IS SACC SACC is the representave value of Seasonally Adjusted Cooling Capacity in Btuh as determined in accordance with the DOE test procedure at tle 10 Code of Federal Regulaons CFR 430 subpart B appendix CC and applicable sampling plans Model ARC1030WN ARC1230WN ARC1230WNH Operaonal Modes Cool Fan Dry Cool Fan Dry Cool Fan Dry Heat Cooling Capacity 12000 BTU SACC 10000 BTU 14000 BTU SACC 12000 BTU 14000 BTU SACC 12000 BTU Heang Capacity 12000 BTU Coverage Area 500 sq 600 sq 600 sq Fan Speed Connuous Auto Low Medium High Connuous Auto Low Medium High Connuous Auto Low Medium High Noise Level 425 495 535 425 495 535 425 495 535 Temperature Range 6086F 6086F Cooling 6086F Heang 6086F Timer Up to 24 hours Up to 24 hours Up to 24 hours Refrigerant R32 R32 R32 Power Consumpon 1266W 1293W 1298W Amps 118 119 120 Power Supply 115V60Hz 115V60Hz 115V60Hz Net Weight 728 lbs 75 lbs 772 lbs Gross Weight 816 lbs 838 lbs 849 lbs Unit Dimensions 195 W x 167 D x 325 H 195 W x 167 D x 325 H 195 W x 167 D x 325 H INTRODUCTION TO INVERTER TECHNOLOGY As pioneers in the air comfort space we are introducing next generaon technology currently used only in high eciency ductless minisplit air condioners The Inverter technology will be featured in our NEX line of portable air condioners By ulizing this much more ecient technolo gy Whynters Inverter variablespeed system allows the compressor to opmize eciency and power consumpon together while maintaining a specied output This allows for a much quieter operaon and signicantly reduced energy con sumpon The Inverter technology system potenally reduces energy usage by more than 40 while the new hoseinhose design delivers more than double the cooling output Below are the advantages of inverter technology At least 40 50 cheaper to run as it consumes less power Quicker to achieve desired temperature Quieter operaon No temperature uctuaons No voltage peaks from compressor HOSEINHOSE COOLING SETUP The innovave twohose in one design and the sealed boom structure ensure no heat leakage This cooling setup extracts and exhausts air from the outdoor so the indoor space reaches an independent and balanced cool air circulaon As a result the enre room can be cooled down quickly and eecvely Page 7
