Whynter - ARC-147WFH 400 Sq.Ft Dual Hose Portable Air Conditioner with 8200 BTU Heater and with HEPA Filter - White
- Key Specs
- Recommended Room Size: 500 square feet (The recommended area size in which the product is designed to operate and produce optimal results, such as the desired heating or cooling. Generally, running a unit too big or too small for the space will result in ineffective operation and wasted energy.)
- DOE SACC Cooling Power: 10000 british thermal units (The Seasonally Adjusted Cooling Capacity (SACC), implemented by the Department of Energy (DOE) after 2017, is a rating of a portable AC unit's cooling power. This rating is based on revised testing that more accurately measures a portable unit's performance, taking into account that these units do not vent heat in the same way as wall or window units and therefore were not cooling as effectively as the previous BTU ratings indicated (based on the ASHRAE-128 standard prior to 2017). Generally, the new cooling power ratings are lower than previous BTU ratings and can more reasonably be compared to the cooling capacities of other types of AC units.)
- Number of Cool Settings: 1
- Number of Fan Speeds: 3
- Airflow Rate: 270 cubic feet per minute
- Remote Control: true
- Integrated Heater: true
- Sleep Mode: false (Enabling this mode sets the unit to first reach the desired temperature, then gradually increase the temperature over a period of time until it reaches a new set temperature, typically several degrees higher than the initial cool setting. This mode helps save energy while keeping the room comfortable.)
- Timer: true
- Auto Shut-Off: true (Feature automatically turns off the product.)
- Window Venting Kit: true (Indicates whether supplies for venting the unit through a window are included.)
- Energy Efficiency Ratio: 10.4 (The ratio of output BTUs (British Thermal Units) to input electrical energy (watts) at a given operating point. Generally, the higher the number, the more efficient the unit. Though higher efficiency units are typically more expensive upfront, they may offset the price in energy costs over time.)
- Combined Energy Efficiency Ratio (CEER): 7.83 (The standard used to measure energy efficiency in window and room air conditioners by the Department of Energy (DOE) as of June of 2014. CEER measures the ratio of output BTUs (British Thermal Units) to input electrical energy (watts) in standby mode and while the unit is operating. Generally, the higher the number, the more efficient the unit. Though higher efficiency units are typically more expensive upfront, they may offset the price in energy costs over time.)
- App Compatible: false (The product can be connected to a program or software application on a mobile device, which then receives collected data from the product.)
- Air Conditioner Type: Portable
- Hose Configuration: Dual (Generally, dual hose configurations are more efficient and better suited for cooling larger areas. Single hose configurations typically consume less energy and are best for cooling smaller spaces.)

For best results, the capacity of the unit should be based on the size of the area it is intended to heat. The recommended capacity depends on several factors such as climate and level of insulation, but generally ranges from 30-60 BTUs per square foot.)

With its smaller size and dual hose framework, the Whynter ARC-147WFH is the best answer for the warm spots in your home, office, server room, and other space-obliged areas. Versatile and simple to set up, this unit offers cooling help for any space where excess humidity and heat cannot be remedied by conventional cooling and heating. The Whynter ARC-147WFH portable air conditioner provides 14,000 BTU cooling and 8,200 BTU heating output while maintaining a compact and portable profile. The dehumidifier mode allows you to extract 134 pints of excess moisture during a 24-hour period. Its self evaporative technology prevents you from needing to drain your unit in most environments. Alternatively, the included gravity drain hose can be utilized in humid climates. This unit features a separate dehumidifying mode that enables it to remove 134 pints of moisture per day. Equipped with a High-Efficiency Particulate Arresting (HEPA) filters are designed to remove 99.97% of all air pollutants that are as small as 0.3 micrometers such as pollen, allergens, and dust mites. For reference, 1 micrometer is 1/100th the width of a human hair. The Activated Carbon Filter is a form of carbon that has been processed to make it extremely porous and thus to have a very large surface area available for absorption of airborne chemicals, gases, and odors. It eliminates and removes chemical fumes, toxic gases, smoke, pet, and other odors from the air.
