The configuration problem I anticipate with using a single unit for the whole apartment is that the air flow from bedroom to living room involves passing through a narrow doorway and make a dog-leg turn. I look on fans as efficiency boosters, not as mandatory links in the cooling chain, if you see what I mean. Nor do I want to end up blasting the AC in one room but still getting an inferior result in the other. Note about CEER rating: Some producers already list the new CEER ( Combined EER) rating in the specification sheets. These units are usually ‘proud’ of how energy-efficient they are. Example: Midea U Inverter has superb energy-efficiency, depicted by 15 CEER rating. What Are The Quietest 8,000 BTU Units?

Note: Evaporative coolers and mini personal air coolers do not produce a cooling effect that can be expressed in BTU. They use water evaporation instead of the refrigerant-based system to provide a cooling effect. Yes, 5 amp is a continuous draw. For batteries, that will be 5 amp-hours; that’s the more relevant information there. However, you need to take into account voltage as well. What really matters is watt-hours. Usually, you have 120V and 5 amps which equals 600 watts; hence 600 watt-hours. Batteries don’t run on 120V; instead, most of them run on 12V. To achieve 600W at 12V, you will need 50 amps; so the draw would be 500 amp-hours (instead of 5 amp-hours). Watt-hour draw, however, will be the same for 12V and 120V voltage. Reply Hello, I am trying to get an AC unit for my fifth-wheeler. It’s 32×9 in average (somewhere in between 280-340 sqft). The ceiling has a height of 8 ft. Do you think a 15,000 BTU unit would be an overkill? Also, I am considering that since it is pretty long (32 ft) 15,000 BTU could do a great job. Thank you ReplyThe equation for ‘ sq ft to BTU‘ is quite simple – multiply the sq ft with 20. That means that a 500 sq ft room needs a 10,000 BTU air conditioner. Of course, do make sure to buy an AC unit that is a bit stronger if you have high ceilings, live in a hot climate, and have an above-average sun in those rooms. Hello Tommy, if we apply the EPA recommendations for 8 ft ceiling we get 640 sq ft * 20 = 12,800 BTU. Now, 18,000 BTU would definitely do the job but it might be an overkill. According to the calculation, the 12,000 BTU is nearly enough. Basements tend to be colder because they have less sun exposure and are located near the ground. 12,000 BTU might just cut it, especially if you have a 7 ft ceiling. Reply Let’s put those numbers in an air conditioner amperage chart: Air Conditioner Amperage Chart (From 5,000 BTU To 18,000 BTU) I’m looking to use a portable air conditioner in my garage. Its 683 sq ft with an 11 ft ceiling. I live in central North Carolina. Direct sunlight on insulated garage doors during the afternoon. Garage walls are foam insulated. Four windows, three of which get direct sunlight. Windows are doubled pane. Cement floor. According to your BTU calculator I would need 18,837.5 BTUs. Not sure if they make that size AC in a portable? So, would two 10,000 BTUs work or 14,000 BTUs work just as well? Reply Here’s what I’m thinking now. Get two air conditioners. A less powerful one just for the bedroom, a more powerful one to handle the two hottest rooms (living room and kitchen) together.

I am looking into installing a mini split but don’t know how big to get it. My kitchen is open to the living room with an attached hallway. I have a total of 5 windows. Kitchen is 17.5 X 8 living room is 16.5 X 12.5 and hallway is 17.5 X 3. All open and connected to each other. Please can someone help. Reply Hello Charlie, you would need about 30,000 BTU, maybe a bit more (Hawaii problems :)). Because you have the L shaped home with a number of rooms, you’ll need a number of units. The best option are the 3-zone mini-split units; you get 1 outside unit and 3 indoor air handlers you distribute evenly around the house.
