Honeywell - 550 Sq. Ft. Portable Air Conditioner - Blue/White
- Key Specs
- Recommended Room Size: 550 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: 6500 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.)
- ASHRAE Cooling Power: 12000 british thermal units (The American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) rates the cooling power, or capacity, of portable AC units based on their effectiveness in cooling a single room as intended. Prior to 2017, this was the accepted standard used for comparison with other types of AC units. However, it did not accurately reflect the cooling power as it did not account for the heat emitted from the unit that would circulate back into the space. The Department of Energy (DOE) Seasonally Adjusted Cooling Capacity (SACC) standard is now used to determine appropriate BTU ratings of portable AC units.)
- Number of Cool Settings: 1
- Airflow Rate: 241 cubic feet per minute
- Remote Control: true
- Integrated Heater: false
- Sleep Mode: true (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.)
- Wireless Connectivity: None (The manner in which a device sends data to another device over a short distance without the use of wires or cables.)
- Air Conditioner Type: Portable
- Hose Configuration: Single (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.)

Q: Can this unit be installed on a window that slides left-right instead of window that opens up-down?
A: Yes, this unit can be installed horizontally and vertically.
A: I bought this unit specifically because the drain line is optional when running only AC, and it has an internal tank. I live in an apt on the 11th floor and have no option to run a water hose outside. For the first few days of operation, I never got a ‘Tank Full’. Indication, but it also didn’t cool the room much. My room is only 440 sq ft, but this is in Honolulu - warm, humid, and my room faces the sun. After a few days I was pretty frustrated, but decided to hook the water hose up, which helped cool the room an additional 5-10 degrees, maybe more. But now I have to empty this 10 gallon trash bucket 2-3 times a day.
Q: What is the diameter of the hot air hose?
A: 6 inches
Q: If running this on a generator, how many watts would be required output from the generator, minimum?
A: Hi, This Honeywell Portable Air Conditioner runs on 900 W at the maximum. Thanks!
Q: how long is the max length of the exhaust hose?
A: The maximum length is 47.2''.
Q: My window is only 13 inches wide. Would the window kit fit? Thank you.
A: Hi. My window is 28”. I didn’t need the extension for the window. I just put the basic piece in and closed the window. Added some heavy cardboard pieces on each end and taped them to seal out the hot air and rain. Worked like a charm. I think that yours is too small.
Q: Do you need a window for this? One picture doesn’t look like it’s going through a window.
A: You need an opening to exhaust the hot air. I use a window. It comes with a adjustable bracket for the hose. You will need to insulate the window yourself around the bracket.
A: Hi Kim, When you press on the temperature control button you can move it to whichever temperature you'd like the unit to cool to. After you make that adjustment the screen will show the current temperature of the room. Thanks!
