Frequently asked questions

What size portable air conditioner do I need?

As a rule of thumb, a small bedroom (up to ~15 m²) needs around 7,000–9,000 BTU, a large bedroom or small living room ~9,000–12,000 BTU, and a large open living space 12,000–14,000+ BTU. AirconWatch only tracks proper refrigerant portable air conditioners of 7,000 BTU and above — no evaporative coolers or fans. See the full portable air conditioner size guide.
