Amcor PLM14000E Portable Air Conditioner

The Portable Polar Express

Overall, I thought this portable air conditioner deserved a round of applause. It's really a well designed product and doesn't look bad at all in the corner of a room. Although it's a little loud and weighs in at around 75 lbs., I would recommend this...

AMCOR PLM14000E 14000 BTU Air Conditioner Silver

This particular unit uses 10 amps so if you plug it into a 10 amp outlet you're obviously going to trip your breaker once the compressor turns on. This also pushes air out without bringing air in and thus creates a vacuum in the room it is placed--It's...

Easy setup. Cools my room down. Fits in my large window. Rarely (every couple of weeks) need to drain mine. The bright backlit LCD turns off. I have one of the 10,000 BTU Amcor units that I bought somewhere else that ships direct from the manufacturer...

Remote doesn't work. I haven't contacted the manufacturer yet because I really don't care. A two hose system (air in and air out) would probably have been more efficient. Doesn't make me breakfast in the morning

Third and final, blew circuit breaker

Newegg is awesome. When there's a problem, they ask how "can we help?". They don't give me the runaround. They went above and beyond my expectations. I continue to shop Newegg.

It cools.

3 units failed. My final unit started blowing the circuit breaker. It was returned.

Not a typical home AC

If you need additional AC to make your server farm colder or as a backup only, this might be the one for you. But don't even think replacing your home AC with this one. It's dried the air, noisy, heavy, and need a lot of maintanance.

Make the air a bit colder

Make the air dryer ; Very loud noise ; Heavy and bulky ; Water need to be drain everyday ; Air flow only to one way ; Not really energy saving device ; Lousy remote ; 12.7 EER? I don't think so

Server room

Will not cool a large server installation (duh?), but to keep a few (3-5) servers cool, this unit has been adequate unless the temperature outside gets REALLY hot.

Works great in my small server room as the primary AC unit. Also easy to pipe so that you never have to empty the bucket

None
