Once considered a temporary solution, portable heating and cooling units continue to evolve as consumer demand calls for new units and new uses.
“Historically, portables have been used solely in hot locations where more permanent solutions could not be provided,” said Brittany Calderon, product manager at Friedrich. “Today, we are seeing increasing use of portables as a primary means of cooling for areas, such as home offices, server rooms, and in homes that don’t have central air and only need cooling a few months out of the year.”
