• Quiet mobile air conditioner for apartments. We choose the best mobile air conditioner of the year. Types of household air conditioners

    Updated 09/24/2017

    A mobile air conditioner is a weak alternative to split systems. If you have the opportunity and means to buy a split system, then we highly recommend this option. Previously, we looked at the rating of the best split-system type air conditioners -. But mobile phones are also popular now - they are sold on the Russian and Ukrainian markets. We have collected below the most popular models with positive reviews.

    The best mobile air conditioner Electrolux EACM-12DR/N3

    The cost of this air conditioner in Ukraine is 11,000 hryvnia, in Russia – around 30,000 rubles. In appearance, this is a rather nice candy bar that can easily “fit” into the interior of the room.

    Specifications:

    1. Cooling power – 3500 W (electricity consumption 1100 W);
    2. Drying, ventilation, automatic mode;
    3. Remote control, on/off timer;
    4. Serving an area of ​​33 square meters.

    Reviews of the Electrolux EACM-12DR/N3 are positive, otherwise we would not have placed it in first place. Its only possible drawback is noise, but in fairness we can say that almost all mobile air conditioners have such a drawback.

    Well, one more thing - there is no heating here, so the model is exclusively for cooling the room.

    2nd place – Electrolux EACM-10DR/N3

    1. Cooling power 2600 W (electricity consumption 900 W);
    2. Ventilation, dehumidification, automatic mode;
    3. Timer, remote control;
    4. The serviced area is 24 square meters.

    This monoblock is slightly cheaper than the previous one, but the excellent one is immediately visible: there is less power and, as a result, a smaller service area. Otherwise, the air conditioner is not much different from the previous one, they even look very similar - from the same line.

    Its advantages and disadvantages are exactly the same. First, the good things: the model cools perfectly, has intuitive cooling, and installation couldn’t be easier.

    Disadvantages: noisy. For some people who fall asleep in complete silence, this will be a real disadvantage. Basically, the emanating noise does not interfere with sleep, so it is not critical (by the way, this also applies to the first air conditioner). The second drawback is the short corrugation of hot air exhaust, the third is the lack of handles for carrying. Considering that this is a MOBILE air conditioner, it would be logical to provide it with special handles for easy transportation from one room to another. Unfortunately, this is not here.

    Overall, this is a very good model that has collected a lot of positive reviews on Yandex.Market.

    3rd place – Zanussi ZACM-09 MP/N1

    The cost in Ukraine is 9,000 hryvnia, in Russia – 24,000 rubles. The model has “standard” characteristics typical of an air conditioner for that kind of money.

    1. Service 25 square meters;
    2. Cooling power 2600 W (power consumption 920 W);
    3. Ventilation, dehumidification, automatic mode;
    4. Control panel, timer.

    Nothing special - just the manufacturer here is Zanussi, not Electrolux.

    Advantages: at the moment this is one of the best mobile air conditioners on the market, characterized by its compactness. The previous 2 devices were larger than this, and this is precisely the BIG advantage of this model. Otherwise, everything is standard: the model cools well, works efficiently (at least in the reviews no one complained about breakdowns).

    Disadvantages: short heat removal corrugation - only 1.2 meters. This somewhat limits the possibilities of placing the device indoors. Next is the noise; in this regard, the model does not outperform its competitors. Even the technical specifications state the noise level is 55 dB. Otherwise, everything is fine, so we can recommend this air cooling monoblock - a good model with standard disadvantages.

    4th place – Zanussi ZACM-07 MP/N1

    The cost on the Ukrainian market is 8,500 hryvnia, in Russia it is approximately 22,000 rubles. Slightly cheaper than the previous mobile air conditioner, and the differences here are insignificant.

    Specifications:

    1. Maintenance of an area up to 20 square meters;
    2. Cooling power 2100 W (energy consumption 850 W);
    3. Ventilation mode, automatic mode, dehumidification;
    4. There is a remote control and a timer, a fine filter.

    Compared to the previous one, this air conditioner is less powerful and serves a smaller area. This is partly why its price is slightly lower. By the name of the model you can guess that the line is the same.

    As for the advantages and disadvantages, they are identical to those described above. Both models are built on the same base, the only difference is in power. Therefore, we can safely talk about the disadvantages: noise, short corrugation.

    Overall, this is a good model with positive reviews - we recommend it for a small room.

    5th place – Ballu BPAM-09H

    This is an inexpensive monoblock costing 7,000 hryvnia or 18,500 rubles. Because The price is low, so you can’t expect cool features either.

    1. Cooling power 2640 W (energy consumption 1.1 kW);
    2. Heating power 2640 W (consumption 950 W);
    3. No remote control, no timer;
    4. There is a ventilation drying mode.

    Advantages:

    1. At its maximum there is a strong flow of very cold air. Cooling is very high quality;
    2. Sufficiently long corrugation;
    3. Simple controls, although there is no remote control.

    Flaws:

    1. Noise (as you understand, this is a problem with all monoblocks). It is difficult to sleep with such an air conditioner in one room;
    2. Adjusting the air flow has no effect on noise.

    For almost 19,000 rubles, a good air conditioner is a great buy. For such a price there are almost no significant shortcomings - the manufacturer was able to exclude many not very necessary features in order to achieve a low price. This is a plus. Because The model receives good reviews, we put it in the rating of the best mobile air conditioners for the home.

    The quietest split systems

    1st place: Samsung AQ09UGF ($302)

    And, as a rule, we start with the best example, which this time was the Samsung AQ09UGF air conditioner for $302. This model is the quietest of all existing ones, which has practically no negative aspects. The only thing that can be a little annoying is the slight vibration during operation, but it can be avoided if you have a tight mounting structure for the device. Otherwise, the model fully justifies its rating position, price and user perception.

    • air flow is 6 cubic meters. m/min;
    • the communication length is 15 meters;
    • there is full functionality, except that there is no supply ventilation;
    • power consumption is at the level of 803-855 W;
    • The drying level reaches 1 l/h.

    2nd place: Samsung AQ09TSB ($377)

    And here is the first representative of a world-famous company, model AQ09TSB for $377. This model has almost perfect noise reduction, but there is a problem that concerns unreasonable squeaking when operating the remote control. Fortunately, this is the only problem with this model, which can be treated with understanding and not criticize the device too much. In addition, operating the remote control takes only a few seconds, so this action does not cause any special negative aspects.

    • the control communication length is 15 meters;
    • there is a full range of functional applications;
    • power consumption is 803-855 W;
    • there is a drying function with an indicator of 1 l/h;
    • the air flow reaches 7.5 cubic meters. m./min.

    3rd place: Zanussi ZACS-09 HF/N1 ($320)

    But the third place Zanussi ZACS-09 HF/N1 amazes with its extraordinary power. According to users, the minimum power of the air conditioner is so impressive that it can blow small objects off the table. Only technical intervention can correct this problem. But we have to agree that this is a rather unusual problem, which, on the one hand, pleases, and on the other, causes a lot of inconvenience. The cost of this device is $321.

    • control communication length is 15 meters;
    • power consumption is 760-840 W;
    • the air flow is 8.33 cubic meters. m/min;
    • there is full functionality.

    4th place: Zanussi ZACS-12 HF/N1 ($332)

    We continue to look at our rating, and now we have the Zanussi ZACS-12 HF/N1 model for $332. Among the negative aspects of this model, it is worth noting only some software glitches and a lack of some functions. Otherwise, the model does not show any shortcomings. Therefore, if the problematic functionality does not bother you, you can safely buy this model and use it for your pleasure.

    • control communication distance is 15 meters;
    • electricity consumption is 1025-1060 W;
    • air flow is 8.33 cubic meters. m/min;
    • The coverage area is 30 square meters. m.;
    • There is full functionality to ensure comfort.

    5th place: Zanussi ZACS-07 HF/N1 ($316)

    It so happened that a not so common company took three places at once and the fifth place belongs to the Zanussi ZACS-07 HF/N1 model for $316. The only disadvantages are the not-so-best external design and inconvenient air conditioning controls. Users also note that reliability is not the best, which makes itself felt after just a year of active use of the device.

    • the communication control distance via the remote control reaches 15 meters;
    • the air flow is 7.5 cubic meters. m/min;
    • The air conditioner covers an area of ​​20 square meters. m.;
    • there is full functionality;
    • power consumption ranges from 680 to 750 W.

    The quietest mobile air conditioners

    It so happened that we were unable to find any other devices that met our criteria. Therefore, we decided to turn to a separate branch of these devices, which are known as mobile air conditioners. They are not as powerful, but have excellent noise reduction, which is what we actually need.

    1st place: Electrolux EACM-12AG/TOP/SFI/N3_S ($474)

    And the rating continues with the Electrolux EACM-12AG/TOP/SFI/N3_S model, the cost of which reaches $474. Surprisingly expensive for such an inconvenient device. The fact is that this model is inconvenient to use and requires additional costs for various extension cords and accessories. In addition, the device often malfunctions and refuses to work.

    • coverage area is 25 sq. m.;
    • there is a comprehensive set of functions;
    • the air flow reaches 4.83 cubic meters. m/min;
    • power consumption is 1050 W.

    2nd place: Electrolux EACM-14ES/FI/N3 ($525)

    The rating continues with the Electrolux EACM-14ES/FI/N3 model, costing $525. Everything would be fine with it, but there is one negative point, which concerns working at full capacity. The fact is that the air conditioner, when it reaches its power threshold, begins to make an eerie noise, which should actually throw it out of the rating. But up to this limit it works perfectly. Therefore, the choice is yours.

    • air flow is 8.5 cubic meters. m/min;
    • there is a set of functions;
    • power consumption reaches 4500 W;
    • The air conditioner is designed solely for cooling;
    • there is no supply ventilation.

    3rd place: Electrolux EACM-10AG/TOP/SFI/N3_S ($471)

    Next comes the Electrolux EACM-10AG/TOP/SFI/N3_S model, which costs $471. Among the negative aspects, it is worth noting the unpleasant odor during operation of the air conditioner, noticeable vibration at maximum load and not the most convenient operating component. Otherwise, this device does not cause any comments.

    • the air flow is 4.83 cubic meters. m/min;
    • coverage area is 20 sq. m.;
    • power consumption reaches 950 W;
    • the device is designed exclusively for cooling;
    • has all the necessary functions.

    4th place: Carrier 51AKP009H ($272)

    But below is a rather interesting model Carrier 51AKP009H, the cost of which is $272. This device is cheap, with excellent quality and good performance. But we cannot yet give a high position in the rating, since the model is completely new and is not particularly in demand yet, so there are high risks.

    • the device has both cooling and heating;
    • consumes 900 W;
    • Full control functionality available;
    • the air flow is 6.67 cubic meters. m/min;
    • There is a dehumidification mode with 0.9 l/h.

    5th place: Electrolux EACM-10 GE/N3 ($331)

    In the unbearable summer heat, everyone dreams of a good air conditioner that could completely cool the entire house. It's time to stop dreaming and get down to business.

    Air conditioning is the best way to beat the heat. Although no, the best way is probably to go somewhere to Alaska :). But why spend money on an expensive plane ticket when you can create a similar atmosphere at home? So we decided that there was no need, so we compiled a rating of the best air conditioners for an apartment.

    Euronord AP-08up to 19 m² from 11,500 rub.

    Before moving directly to the rating, we will tell you about the advantages and disadvantages of this or that type of air conditioner. You probably already know that there are 4 main types: mobile, window, split systems and multi-split systems. Let's figure out what all these names mean.

    Choosing the type of air conditioner for an apartment

    Depending on the type and area of ​​the room, you need to choose the type of air conditioner that will cool your home in the future. As we already said, there are 4 main types.

    Mobile

    The name evokes associations with us, but unlike them, in our pocket mobile air conditioner can't be put down. However, it can be moved from room to room without much hassle. It does not require special installation skills, so you can connect it almost immediately after purchase. The only thing that is required from you is to provide for the removal of the corrugated hose outside the apartment (so that warm air escapes outside the room).

    In addition, mobile air conditioners are much cheaper than split systems. Their prices start from 10,000 rubles(models with cooling only), and from 15,000 rubles(with cooling and heating).

    Most models are designed to cool a room larger than 20 m². They are perfect for a summer house, small apartment, country house and the like. They can be transported without problems, as they are installed independently. Modern devices can operate in ventilation (air purification and humidification), heating and cooling modes. Like full-fledged air conditioners, “mobile phones” have a remote control, operating speeds, on/off timers and much more.

    Split systems

    This is the most common type of air conditioner for home and industrial use. All split systems consist of two blocks: external and internal. The external block serves as a compressor-condensing unit, and the internal block provides evaporation of the liquid. Both blocks are connected by a tube, so they should be located next to each other behind the wall.

    Unlike other types of air conditioners, split systems are the quietest. Thanks to the remote external unit, all noise remains outside.

    The main advantages of such air conditioners are the ability to regulate the temperature in the house even in the most difficult situations. Most models have a remote control, several speeds and modes, air ventilation functions and much more.

    Depending on the location in the room, the following types of split systems are divided:

    • wall;
    • channel;
    • cassette;
    • floor-ceiling (universal);
    • columnar;

    Such a variety of installation types ensures comfortable use of the device even in the smallest apartment.

    Multi-split systems

    As you probably already guessed from the name, multi means “several”. Multi-split system consists of several internal blocks. This allows the use of such devices in large premises (apartments, offices, workshops).

    Otherwise, they are not much different from a conventional split system. It is worth noting that each indoor unit has its own remote control.

    How to determine which air conditioner to buy?

    If you cannot decide on the choice of model, then carefully study our rating, and also watch a short training video:

    How to choose a good air conditioner for an apartment, house or office

    In the store, you can choose an air conditioner, considering the design of the device, its cost, and read an extensive list of functionality and settings. But, there is one important point that is included in all technical characteristics of a good air conditioner. Its optimal coverage area. The power of the air conditioner directly depends on the area of ​​the room in which it will be installed. For a bedroom in an apartment you need to choose one model with low power; for an open office and a private home, more powerful models. Remember that low-power devices will not be able to create a comfortable atmosphere in a large room, and too powerful systems in small rooms will consume too much energy, and this will result in additional financial expenses.
