C’est horrible ça, je viens d’installer une clim midea 12k chez moi. Je croyais que ça va résoudre tout mes problèmes. Et mtn j’ai un nouveau soucis, comment fonctionner cette clim dans mon appart Apres avoir investi : clim + kit fenêtres + insulation tuyaux + insulation des fenêtres et portes= 650 700 euros. Et mtn j’ai un système ne baisse pas la température assez, fait rentrer de la poussière et odeur l’air rentre de partout. horrible, je suis tjs dans les 30 jours de retour mais je trouve pas un double tuyau.

Check Slickdeals, I recently bought a refurbished 12000BTU Midea for $200. I live in California, currently 95F, and for an uninsulated garage of that size, you'd want at least a 12000BTU Midea if not the 14000BTU. There's currently a 18500BTU mini split on sale for $550 that be optimal.

I have 2 of them for the better part of 7 years. A 12k btu and 9k btu. Midea and Defy. One in my bedroom (4m x 3m) and one as a roaming AC. They work very well. I don't mind the noise. I pretend I'm on a flight somewhere. I won't do wall AC because I'm renting and my landlord is cheap and won't pay. This will suffice. It's better than nothing. I sleep like a baby.

Got the same one from costco and makes gaming in my upstairs office cool during the hottest days of summer! And no water drain!!!

Never a single hose, dual hose inverter unit if it must be portable (Inverter units can be quieter and use less energy because they don't just blow at full power unless needed) I would get a window unit if you can. make sure you get the correct size unit. My midea doesn't leak, but I don't think that's actually a wide scale issue lol.

The Midea can pull 1200W easily when it's cooling the flat down on boost mode. Normally it's running around 300-500W when keeping the temperature stable. 24° 65m2.
