   Jun 17, 2022 · A portable air conditioner is an inherently inefficient appliance. Why? Because it puts a whole AC system – which includes both cold and hot components - inside of a single portable appliance. The cold side is good – it cools air. The hot side is a problem.

   What is a portable air conditioner?

   • A portable air conditioner is just what it sounds like — a mobile device that delivers cool air where and when you need it most. These ACs are much cheaper than whole-house central air systems and they don’t need to be parked on a window sill, like a traditional room air conditioner, and will provide stronger cooling than a standing fan.

   • While window air conditioners have been subject to federal energy efficiency standards for more than 25 years, portable air conditioners have not. In 2016 the Department of Energy set new efficiency standards for them, but they don’t go into effect until 2025. Many manufacturers have already been producing units that meet those standards.
