NewAir AC-14100E 14,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner with Energy Saving Timer

This is the first portable air conditioner that I have purchased. It was very easy to install. It does a fantastic job. The unit was packaged perfectly. I live on the east coast and it came from across the country. I am very seriously considering purchasing another one. I would very highly recommend this product. It is awesome!

Received just in time for the heat wave. Set up for continuous drain, used several window kits for my sliding door, plugged it in & voila cold air. Have a chalet style house with high ceilings, no central air, keeps great room cool. I would recommend direct drain as it removes moisture from the air like a champ. EER rating of 9.88 which is very good for a portable air conditioner. Noise is about the same as a window air conditioner. Overall a great product.

Just received this in today and I'm very impressed so far! This did require a little patience to get it installed, but it was worth the wait. My master bedroom is about 300 square feet and this unit is more than enough to handle the room size (I was afraid it wouldn't work so I bought a large unit). I'm glad to say that it cooled down my room from 90 to 77 in in less than 30 minutes. In searching around for portable air conditioners, I was also pleased to find that the EER on this machine is on par with window models of the same BTUs. Thank you, Air-n-water, I am very pleased! This will help us out tremendously during the summer.

Our family loves having this product. Very classy, stylish and dependable. We'll say more as time goes by.

We bought this for the main level in our home. It cools the living room, dining room and kitchen sufficiently. Very easy to use and install. My only complaint is that it's very loud while running so we're not able to watch tv in the living room while it's running. Other than that we're very pleased.

I researched the internet for several months before deciding to purchase the New Air 14,000E commercial grade, portable air conditioner. My decision was based on the customer reviews, the larger coverage area, the longer warranty and the commerial grade construction. After using this for one complete season, from May until November, in a very hot and humid climate; I am completely satisfied with this unit and I am hard to please. The evaporative control function is fantastic! I never empty any water from the unit and no mold forms inside the unit. I always run on the fan only function for a couple of hours, after the cooling function is no longer necessary - just to make sure all of the water is removed from the collector sump. The unit has 4 air filters which are easily cleaned with a vacuum cleaner, and should be on a regular basis. The ionizer is a nice function and works well to control dust and pollen. The poratables are not as efficient as the window units, so a larger unit is desirable for effeicent cooling. Here is an instance where it pays to go overboard a bit in the btu ratings. If you need a 10,00 btu, go for the 14,000. You won't be sorry!

Just recieved the unit last week and am useing it in a basement apartment. The unit noise level is good for a living enviroment. Not overly loud. It does show the temp. of the room and was shuting off the compressor when the desired temp. was reached. So far so good am very pleased with the unit. The shipping was very fast and the unit arrived in excellent condition. Air & Water are great to work with. Every question was answered and the love the return policy if I was not pleased. Dehumidification is not real good if you have a humidity problem tho.

This is a well built machine. However, I was looking for a unit that would truly cool 525 sq. ft. Not happening. It did need a little TLC when installing since window shutting down on insert does not give an airtight fit.

I've seen other air conditioning units when visiting friends since buying this model two summers ago. None of the other brands beat the cooling capability and the relative quietness. It's design is good for corner placement. It keeps a large bedroom with high ceilings and an adjacent master bath cool. Installation may take 5 minutes like it says in the description if you have ordinary double hung windows. I have vertical crank casement windows. Installation requires drilling holes and using your ingenuity to make the set up waterproof. The other option would be to vent through a permanent hole you'd have to make through the wall to the outside. Either way, I have to get the help of a brother-in-law or hire a handyman. Since I'd have this installation problem with any portable AC, once installed, it works so sufficiently that I bought a second one for a second bedroom. (haven't even took the new one out of the box yet since it is early April in New England but I am assuming it is an exact duplicate of the one I have now.)

We live in a condo and are not able to have central air. This summer's heat has been unbearable so I decided to try a portable AC. I went on many websites and did extensive research before purchasing the New Air 14000. It does the job. We have a large living room that includes our kitchen, laundry, and hallway and this unit works. We have a sliding glass door, so we used the window kit and a syrofoam packing piece that came with the unit and it worked to close off our door area. My only negative is I wish the remote had more instructions on how to operate it. I'm not sure on the energy use yet, as we haven't gotten a bill.

We ordered it on a reccommendation from a friend in NC. We live in MN and this is our only source of AC. It cools our open kitchen, dining area, and living room very adequatly. It also takes the edge off adjacent rooms.

I purchased this unit as a Scratch and Dent. My wife and I could not tell what was wrong with it. We did find that it was maybe missing a cover to where the plug can be stored in back, but if that is what is wrong with it we aren't complaining! I saved hundreds of dollars by purchasing it as a scratch and dent and a missing cover that I am not even sure is missing doesn't matter to me. Anyhow, I bought this for my downstairs kitchen and living room which is probably around the maximum footage for this unit. I bought it because our HVAC had gone out in the middle of a heat wave, and it was getting to be 118? F outside and indoors it was getting 96? downstairs and over 100? upstairs. Using this AC unit, I was able to get downstairs 84? F during the hottest part of the day. It made it bearable. In all fairness, we did not have the downstairs entirely sectioned off, so some air was escaping. The living room is connected to a hallway, and air was easily escaping that way so what I did was hang up a shower rod with a curtain on it and I set it in front of a baby gate to keep the air from escaping as much. While we were hoping for it to keep the room icy cold, that wasn't realistic as it was 118? outside AND I could not properly contain the cold air in the room. Now it is in the low 100? outside. I have my HVAC fixed, so I use this unit upstairs in the bedroom when we are going to be. It does an EXCELLENT job for the bedroom. Probably guessing the room is 300 square feet. It easily gets the room from 85? F to 76? is around an hour. It keeps it there all night. My wife complains that it is a little loud for her, but she is pregnant and is waking up easier than normal. But she prefers to have it in the room regardless. When I was using this unit 24/7 during the heat wave (literally running it 24 hours per day. First downstairs, then upstairs) I was using 64 KW per day. Now that my HVAC is fixed, running our 4 ton AC 10 hours out of the day I am using 125 KW per day. My normal AC running for less time is almost doubling my electrical usage. I like this unit. Would highly recommend it for someone needing something portable. HOWEVER, and this is a big deal... I have a little 8000 btu window cooler that I have in my garage. It cools the garage down faster than this until did. It does not blow nearly as hard, but the room does get cooler. I don't know why as when I put my hand in front of each one, this portable unit feels like it is blowing more air that is colder. I am guessing that maybe heat is transferring from the hose to the air? I don't know. If you have the ability to get a window cooler, it will be more effective. But if you do not have a big enough window, or you need something portable you can't go wrong with this one.

I bought this unit to cool our small living room and kitchen area (measured @ 299 sq. ft.). I decided to spend the extra money on a unit rated to cool a much larger area, hoping that it would easily cool the little space. While it does cool it a bit, it sure doesnt do what I was hoping for. It makes the room bearable, so I guess it does its job, but the room is still warm and somewhat uncomfortable. Set up was easy, my wife did it while I was at work. Shipping was quick and I would gladly do business with Air & Water again.

The drain system plug may be OK on hardwood but is almost unusable on carpet. It is so low that you can only use a very shallow pan with limited capacity. Otherwise, the system is OK.

For years we have suffered the brutal summers in Houston due to an a/c unit that just couldn't keep the house cool. With 90+ degree weather day after day it makes for a long hot summer. We finally decided to get this unit to help cool the place off. We strategically placed it in a central room. I'm very happy with the unit. It helps keep the house cooler. I love the fact that it's an energy saver too.

The air does not feel chilled while running this but it will make a room more comfortable. The unit is larger than anticipated.

I purchased this air conditioner so I wouldn't have to lift a heavy window unit. This air conditioner is fantastic! It cools a rather large room in my house. It was easy to install which is always a big plus!

Overall a great prooduct for the price only had it a short time but will see

I am very happy with the NewAir AC-14100E 14,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner. It is known that portable units do not cool as well as window units. It was easy to install. The only thing I am concerned about is empting the water, which I have not had to do yet, because there is a skimpy hose to use and it going into the unit, near the floor, I don't know how to drain it if the hose is level with the floor. Guess I will find out. I have not receive a bill yet for the electric so I don't know how energy efficient it is.

Our bedroom is 300 square feet with vaulted ceilings. We only use it to cool for sleeping and it works OK. Temp of 82 degrees at 7:00pm gets down to 75 by 11:00pm and down to 65 at 7:00am. I run my ceiling fan and a table fan to keep it balanced. Overall I am pleased with the results.

This is the first air conditioner I purchased and it works wonderful. The only thing that needs improvement is the length of the screws that holds the hose into the window extenders. I purshased this air conditioner the week that we had temperatures reaching into the high 90 degrees. The heat index was in the 100+ degree range. It managed to cool a large living room, kitchen and hallway with no problem. This is one of the best purchases that I ever made.

I purchased this air conditioner last week and it arrived on Monday. So far the air conditioner has performed excellent. The only thing that should be improved on is the window spacer unit and the exhaust hose adaper. It is held together by very short/short screws which do not hold the unit together. I will be looking for longer screws and nuts to hold the unit together. This is my first air conitioner and I researched the internet extensively and found three recommended units. I went by the reviews that other people posted and was very happy with my choice. I would recommend this unit to everyone in need of an air conitioner in this extreme heat we are experiencing lately.

Great product for average room. If you have high ceilings it will not completley cool the room. It can be loud, but also some window air conditioners do to.

I have been using my unit for a few weeks now, it seems to be ok. It dosen't cool as good as I thought it would thou, but it's better then nothing. The price is kinda high for what you get. Not sure if I would recommend.

This unit is very powerful and cools off my living room. It is well designed and compact. It works well even in tripple digit heat. The delivery was very fast.

The NewAir AC-14100E seems a viable solution to a 490 Sq. Ft. area with Computer Equipment and Two People working on a daily basis. After receiving the item, we immediately went to work to set things up to begin air conditioning. On initial startup, it seemed like it was a solid unit forcing out a sufficient amount of cool air to bring the temperature down. This was later in the day because of the setup process. After being somewhat satisfied with system, we put on night setting and left for the day. On the following day, we started the system first thing in the morning to get a better indication of the system's capability. By noon of that day, the office space had become 5 degrees warmer and the system didn't seem to even cool a 5 foot diameter around the unit. At this point, we quickly determined that the unit was not sufficient to cool anywhere close to the square footage and was returned. I would recommend the system for SMALL areas but since the failure to cool 490 sq. ft, we have moved to a 24000 btu in wall unit and are extremely satisfied with both the output and consistent cooling throughout the day.

Have had this air conditioner for a couple weeks now. Just in time for record breaking 90 degree weather in Michigan! Did not rate the energy efficient section because we have not received an electric bill yet. We have a 2000 sq ft home with a very open floor plan. This unit is at one end of the house and a 10,000 btu unit is at the other end. We are surprised that there is a water tank and instructions to add water to improve energy efficiency. Our other unit has a dehumidifier to remove moisture. Sometimes after it has been running for awhile the case rattles a bit. My husband taps it on the side and the rattle goes away. Very happy we purchased it. Very pleased with how quickly our order was processed by Air & Water. Thank you!

Unit required emptying every hour when running on a hot and humid day. (When else would I use it?) Had to put it on a cart in order to run a hose out a window. Setup looks ugly. I would not recommend this unit unless you can set up a continuous drainage system. Hose that is furnished is no gem either as it pushes on the outlet instead of screwing on and is not watertight. Air conditioning is OK.

This product arrived on my doorstep, packaged nicely. It was easy to remove from the box, and set up. It does not cool quite as well as a window unit, but general concensus is that portable units just dont. All that said, they are doing a great job, and after running it continuously for 3 days in 100 degree heat and humidity, I haven't had to empty it yet. I'd buy another in a second!

I'm happy with this purchase; although, I think it's important to have realistic expectations. It is a portable air conditioner and not equipped to cool an entire house, and like a window air conditioner, it has a considerable amount of white noise. That said, I would recommend this product. It was easy to install, it's easy to use, and the air it blows out is cold. We bought this AC because the central air is no longer operable in our rental home and the landlord will not fix it. Our home is 1080 sqare feet and this unit has made the summer, with temperatures in St. Louis between 90-100 degrees, more tolerable. The room the unit is placed in remains at a comfortable 74 degrees and the adjoining room around 78 degrees. The other 500 square feet stays between 80-86 degrees, depending on how hot it is outside. If I closed the door, blocking off half of the house, I'm sure it would keep the other half of the house very cool, but I prefer to keep the house open and allow it to help cool every room as best as it can. As far as energy efficiency, I'm not sure what to say. Because it has to run non-stop in order to keep 1080 sqare feet reasonably comfortable, it costs about the same as running central air (which cools the whole house much better, of course). I think it would be fair to say that it would be energy efficient if used for its intended purpose, which is to cool no more than 520 square feet.

Bought this to cool a server room, so it's a supplemental cooling system, as the room is already on the HVAC system. Not too much condensation, which was a concern. It's but up and running for almost 2 weeks and so far so good.

The unit came promptly and without issue. The manual lacks some detail, which is readily overcome with product familiarization. Installation is simple and straight forward, took only minutes. The unit performance and effectiveness is what really stands out. Turns my bedroom into an ICEBOX. I occasionally have to work graveyards, which means I have to sleep into the day as it heats up. The unit keeps my room cold and I find myself waking up under my comforter. Some reviewers poorly reviewed the unit noise. I strongly disagree, noise should not be a deterrent. The noise level is acceptable. EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE. GREAT VALUE. A device that exceeds expectations.

Was skeptical that a free standing unit could cool so efficiently and quietly. Easily portable and not bad looking. Considering a second unit for the upstairs.

This unit has a lot of cooling power and is compact for a portable unit.

I haven't used this product much yet, but early indications are very good. It cools my large greatroom well and quickly, it's no noisier than a window unit, it feels well built, and it's simple to install and operate. I live in a dry(ish) climate and haven't noticed any moisture build-up. It also arrived quickly and very well packed for shipping. The manufacturer doesn't tell you this, but the filters are also washable. I might have given it 4.5 stars, since installation of the window kit wasn't as smooth as it could have been. I had to cut some of the width from the plastic insert to fit in my window, and there were large gaps all around it through which lots of heat/cold moved. I sealed these with weather stripping. Overall, this unit is a very good choice.

So far one week its perfroming well, just good looking a/c and powerful engine. I like it no doubt, could have five (5) overall rating stars but it is too soon to make a good judgement out of it. We bought this portable as an alternative to fill the void created by a/c central breakdown. As I said before, what a great alternative.

Fast Shipping! Excellent Customer service! Unit works great. Cools my 400 sq foot garage to 70 when its 90 outside.

I have a large sun room with windows all the way around. I had another AC and it just couldn't keep the room cool. I purched New Air with trepidations. When I finally got it running it cooled the sun room in no time at all. In Fl we have been having early hot weather and the AC did the job. So far I am satisfied.

I searched for a portable a/c unit to replace our window unit in the bonus room. Upon locating this New Air a/c , I was impressed with the specs of this unit. I have used it 3 to 4 days off and on this spring and the unit works great. In Georgia, it gets extremely hot and humid in June through August. So, I will be able to test its performance better during that time of the year. My family is satisfied with the Newair-14100e portable a/c unit so far.

If I was the richest man in the whole wild world(www). I would buy everyone on earth NewAir AC-14100E 14,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner To prove this product make people happy happy people helps people

Had no problems installing it. One of the casters (wheels) were broken when I received it and I am still in the process of having it replaced. It is loud which I will deal with the noise over 110 temps any day! It really hasn't been put to the true test yet. It has been just under 90 these last few weeks. In a month or so I will know more. I see it working just fine though. My house is just over 2000 sq ft - this is not cooling the hole house but the down stairs yes. It make it comfy enough and actually very frigid in the room it is in. I just need a WHEEL NOW AIR & WATER!!!

This transaction went very well and got here in record time. The product is exactly as advertised and works great.

I purchased the unit as extra means to cooling my living room and dining room area. In the summer my home gets very hot in those areas becasue they are spacious. Now, In March I am just using the Unit by it self and it is keeping my entire home at a comfortable setting. I have not had to turn my big unit on at all. I recommend this unit to everyone it is great.

I would highly recommend this product. Cools sufficiently, easy to install. light enough to roll from room to room. have 2 ac's cooling my entire 1100 square feet of house. easy to store for winter.

Air and Water was top notch to work with! I got my unit installed and the remote said it was working but the unit would not turn on. I worked at it for 2 hours and called AnW. Even though they were closed for 15 minutes on a Friday night, a rep answered my phone call, told me what to do on line for a return/replacement and assured me it would be processed first thing Monday. They did. They sent me a FedEx return label and my replacement unit. When the return label was rejected by FedEx, AnW got right to work on that detail. I boxed up my old unit and hooked up the new. New works great! We, of course, have not had the 100+ humidity we had when I was desparately seeking a/c but it's still quite warm. This unit does my downstairs 4 rooms very well and I'm amazed at how quiet it is! Plus how strong it kicks out air! This is no slacker unit! AnW stood behind it and they were excellent to work with on the phone and via email. Do not hesitate getting this unit from AnW!!! As far as easy to install. It took a little cutting of the plastic window piece to make it fit but otherwise it's not like having to heft a big old a/c unit into the window and hope it doesn't fall outside while you juggle the window, etc. The cutting of the piece was easily done with a sharp knife so don't envision a saber saw or SawzAll. Anybody can manage it.

Houston area I just received this product, was easy to install and test, seems to do what I got it for. I haven't used it much, because I got this just for the purpose of a A/C back up if a Hurricane comes thru and knocks the power out. 3 years ago this happened and we went for 3 weeks with out power. I have a power generator, but with a fan all you do is stir the hot air around. So that is why my wife and I purchased the portable A/C. The best thing I saw, except for the great reviews, it doesn't draw that much amps or watts, so my generator will be fine running it.

We would never have purchased an air conditioner for our bedroom, even though it would have made sleeping much more comfortable, if we had not been able to purchase this model. We first saw such air conditioners in the bedrooms of an historic hotel, and realized they were available. This is the perfect AC for someone with a room where they do not wish to encumber the window with a traditional window unit. This unit is super quick and easy to set up for use, makes the room pleasant to occupy in a jiffy, and rolls around easily on carpet so that it can be gotten out of the way effortlessly. Great Little Product-- plus, it's cute. It reminds one of a little robot.
