Provided by Compact Appliance

This Koldfront 9000 BTU Ultra Small Portable Air Conditioner (Model PAC901W) offers powerful cooling at a reasonable cost, plus it features easy-to-use manual controls and an automatic water exhaust system so there is no reason to empty any water buckets under most conditions! This compact and powerful portable air conditioner is great for cooling rooms up to 250 square feet, and it is designed to provide quiet and efficient cooling to any room without permanent installation.

Here are the primary reasons this Koldfront 9000 BTU portable air conditioner is a great value:

Manual controls- Why pay for expensive features you will never use? This portable air conditioner features simple and user-friendly manual controls. Plus, the extra-large controls are easy to reach and use for the mobility impaired
Self-evaporative system- Most or all condensate water is exhausted automatically.*
Powerful two motor design- One motor delivers cold air to your room and the other cools the compressor and condensor. This results in more effective cooling.
Compact & lightweight- Under 30" high / 53 lbs.
Automatic restart- If the unit is running and power is interupted, the unit will restart when the power is restored.

*Through extensive product testing, we determined that this unit is unlikely to require any draining under most operational conditions. Results may vary.

GREAT BUY FOR THE PRICE

"My central a/c was going out so I decided to purchase this as a secondary source for cooling to help prolong its life as long as possible. Well two days after I ordered the portbale a/c my central a/c went out! We lived without it for a couple of days which was horrible and the temperature outside was only 80 degrees! We got the koldfront and used it our bedroom so we could sleep, it kept us cool until we got ..." Read Full Review »

Design Flaw Causes Frequent Cycling

"This unit has a design flaw that makes it inherently short-lived, energy inefficient, and unsuitable for many uses (such as bedrooms). The thermostat is located immediately above the outflow duct for the conditioned (cooled) air. As a result, this unit cycles on and off very frequently. As the room approaches the temperature desired, the thermostat cools down due to the exiting airflow to a temperature below ..." Read Full Review »

"I bought this unit to use in my 14 foot enclosed trailer whilst at the track on hot days. Unless I was directly in front of the outlet air, it was very ineffective. This was expected to a certain degree as the trailer is not insulated. I tried it in the bedroom and it did an OK job 14' x 16', but …" Read Full Review »
