Uses for portable air conditioners

Summary: There are several uses for a portable air conditioner that makes it a worthwhile investment. Spot cooling a server room, new room additions, your RV, and a vacation are a few examples of such uses.

The portable air conditioner is a versatile device. Here are some potential uses for portable air conditioners that make them extremely good long-term investments.

Room cooling

Often, house and apartments will use non-standard dimensions for their windows. Anything other than the standard window measurement will rule out the use of a window air conditioner. A portable air conditioner will work in any room with windows of any size.

Server room

Server rooms and data center require cooling around the clock. Any drastic change in temperature can result in damage to the equipment and downtime for services. A portable air conditioner is ideal for data center environments for affordable spot cooling.

RV

Cool your entire RV with your portable air conditioner. As soon as you roll into an RV park and have access to shore power, you have access to air conditioning.

Renovations

Any recent additions to the house, like a room extension or split, can result in uneven distribution of air conditioning. There are even times where it is not possible to extend ducting for the central air conditioner.

Holiday homes

Vacation homes and cabins usually do not merit any built-in air conditioning as there will not be any full-time maintenance available. A portable air conditioner is a great option for cooling in such situations.

The benefits of portable a/c units

Written by MovinCool

A Portable air conditioner, also known as a spot cooler, is a temporary cooling solution when larger a/c systems fail or require maintenance. They are also used in some applications for permanent cooling. This can be smaller server rooms or small equipment rooms.

They are called portable because they come with castors or wheels and can be moved around easily. Portable AC units tend to be smaller than permanent units and so can fit in through standard doorways and entryways. This also limits their capacity.

Portable a/c units should not be confused with mobile a/c units. Mobile a/c units also come with wheels but then to be towed or trucked to a site as they can be much larger. Because they must be set up outside, this limited their portability.

The are many use cases for portable air conditioners. One is for cooling areas when the main air conditioner has broken down or requires repair. These are temporary. The other is for locations where there is no proper infrastructure to place traditional a/c units. There is either no window space or there is no access to the outside for return air. Another is to augment existing cooling temporarily. This includes events like conferences and exhibitions where individual stalls can expect sudden increases in people and additional heat.

Portable a/c units are extremely versatile and with the rapid advancement of technology will find more and more places for its use.

Playing it Cool

                The server room of any company is the brains of the operation. It isn’t the brains of the whole operation as we can’t discount the work and input of the employees, but it is definitely the brains of all the computers in the building. With thousands and maybe even millions of calculations happening  every second, server rooms can get hot and this is definitely not a good thing. When computers and servers get hot they start to work slower, reducing efficiency and productivity in work. When it gets too hot, serious problems can occur and damage might happen. Computer cooling is needed in situations like these and here’s why.

Server Error

                Servers are the brains of your whole computer network. Imagine what would happen if your brain overheats and just shuts off. The rest of your body would shut off with it turning you into a vegetable. For the time being your company loses work which means losing possible profit. This is why computer cooling is important and as an added line of defense, it is advisable that you get cooling units with built in dehumidification technology. Why need a dehumidifier?

Water is the enemy

                We all know water and computers just don’t go together. At one point, we’ve all seen what happens when someone accidentally spills water all over their laptop — spark, spark, dead. Humidity works the same way, just slower and less noticeable. With enough humidity though, your computers can suffer and eventually get destroyed. Get dehumidification solutions to prevent that.
