ARC-1230WNH

Recently had success in my attic with the “Whynter Portable Air Conditioner 14,000 BTU & Heater with Dual Hose”. It cools about 500 sqft no prob

Unfortunately Amazon is the best and cheapest place to get things like that “off season” (even though it’s broiling in Oakland). It looks like they’re doing a sale on summer type stuff next week starting the 25th so if you can wait it might be best. To answer your question better, we absolutely love the “Whynter Portable Air Conditioner 14,000 BTU & Heater”. We leave it hooked up most of the year because it’s dual hose so it can also blow just outside air instead of cooling and is way more efficient than anything except a window unit. It’s not cheap, but the amount of extra sleep we’ve gotten due to leaving the windows closed the entire summer is huge. It’s highly rated and we’ve spent no extra money over 3 summers with it. Just hand wash the filters.

How would you compare the 14S and 1230WN? From what I have seen the 1230WN has a significantly higher cooling rating than 14S and others (Gasbye Inverter 14,000 and Midea Duo Inverter 14,000). The price point is not the greatest but don't want to get a lesser unit to save $100.

Thanks, that's great to hear! I tried another unit but it wasn't the 16,000 it claimed and was shooting out air around 52 degrees even when it's low 80s out. Only downside to the 120WN right now is the shipping time is very wild right now, two weeks to over a month from Amazon.

Looks like no sellers but Amazon and AliExpress right now. I'm going to wait until Prime Day to see if they discount it (looks like earlier this year it was a bit lower). Have a decent one running currently that I'll move to a bedroom when I get this.

Whynter ARC-1230 or ARC-14S Dual hose and 14,000 glorious BTUs. Not cheap but they're the best of the best.
