Floor Standing Air Conditioner?

A floor standing air conditioner unit is similar to the conventional split air-conditioner. The main difference is that it is mounted on the floor or very close to the floor. In some cases, if the floor is recessed, the air conditioner can be placed on it. In other cases, it can be placed below the window.

A floor-mounted console is often used when it is not possible to install the indoor unit of a standard air conditioner which normally is mounted on the wall

When to use a floor mounted air conditioner?

A floor-mounted console is often used when it is not possible to install the indoor unit of a standard air conditioner which normally is mounted on the wall. This is often due to limited space on the walls or even in the last few decades many buildings have glass walls and large windows. So, installing a split wall unit is not possible in such cases and that is where a floor console is preferred.

There are some rooms and areas where the wall is difficult to access. While in other areas, the ceilings are low or angled, leaving very little space for a split wall system installation.

In many homes, the wall is used to display artwork such as paintings or other items of decor. Installing a split air conditioner on the wall will affect the appearance and décor of your home. Therefore, in these cases, a floor-mounted system is preferred since it can be placed in any corner of the room and serve the same purpose.

Benefits of Floor Standing Air Conditioners

Flexibility

Floor standing aircon units are portable, which means they are meant to be moved from room to room. Unlike with windowed aircon units there are no installment service charges when doing this.

The main benefit for flexibility with portable aircon units is that they can be used in rooms without windows.

Convenience

Portable aircon units also make excellent dehumidifiers for rooms thanks to a built in washable filtration system. And the routine clearing out of the water tank is lessened with the majority of condensed water being evaporated out with exhaust air.

Floor standing aircon units also come with a tray to collect all of the water drippings from the unit. Some units have a safety shut off system put in place to prevent floor flooding

What to consider when choosing a floor standing aircon unit?

Before you choose a floor standing unit, the first thing to know is that nearly all AC units need some ventilation. For a windowless air conditioner, dryer vents or a drop ceiling are common solutions for ventilation.

Mobility

Make sure you avoid buying a heavy floor standing aircon unit (if you can’t transport it by yourself, it’s too heavy). A heavy unit will make it too much of a hassle moving it around the different rooms of your house.

Newer plastic models are easier to grip onto than the older metal models and are therefore easier to move around. The most mobile units have wheels at the bottom; keep an eye out for these.

Price

There is a wide price range, so you will be able to find something that does the job you need and that fits your budget. Prices vary based on size and any extra functions or capabilities.
