What size room does the Power Breezer H750L cool?

9,000 BTU of real cooling (SACC) suits about 300 to 400 sq ft with normal sun and two people (about 270-360 sq ft if very sunny), by the ENERGY STAR floor-area table. Size by SACC, not the larger BTU on the box.

How many watts does the Power Breezer H750L use, and what does it cost to run?

About 1071 watts at full power (9,000 BTU/h divided by its CEER of 8.4), roughly 9.3 amps if it runs on 115 V. At 750 hours a year and 18.0¢/kWh that is about $145, which is $26 less than the typical certified 10,000 BTU portable unit ($171). Its inverter compressor slows down once the room is cool, so real use is often lower. Its CEER beats 76% of the 706 certified models in its size class.

Is a one-hose portable air conditioner a problem?

It is the common design: 78% of the certified 10,000 BTU models have one hose, with a median of 7.9 CEER. The top-ranked Midea MAP12S1TBL has two hoses and 14.7 CEER.

How does the Power Breezer H750L handle the water it removes?

It collects the water in a removable bucket that you empty by hand when it fills.

Can the Power Breezer H750L also heat the room?

No, it only cools. 200 of the 706 certified 10,000 BTU portable models can also heat if you want one unit for the year.

Is the Power Breezer H750L as efficient as a window air conditioner?

No. The 57 ENERGY STAR certified window units that cool about as much (within 15% of 9,000 BTU) have a median CEER of 15.0, against 8.4 here, and the best reach 17.6. At 750 hours a year a window unit with that median would cost about $81, $64 less than this one. ENERGY STAR window units are the more efficient part of the window market, so the gap to an average window unit is smaller. A portable unit makes sense when a window unit will not fit or is not allowed.

9,000 BTU (SACC) single-hose portable air conditioner and inverter

Power Breezer H750L

Very good efficiency for its size: a CEER of 8.4 beats 76% of the certified 10,000 BTU portable air conditioners.

The Power Breezer H750L delivers 9,000 BTU of real cooling (SACC), enough for about 300-400 sq ft, draws about 1071 watts and costs about $145 a year to run at typical U.S. use and prices. A window unit that cools as much costs about $81 a year.

Design: One hose Uses room air for its condenser

A good fit if…

You want low bills - its CEER beats 76% of the 706 certified 10,000 BTU portable models.
You want steadier, quieter running - its variable-speed compressor slows down instead of cycling.

Think twice if…

You want the most efficient design - one-hose units pull warm air in through gaps; dual-hose units lead the efficiency ranks.
You also need heat - it cools only.
You want no drain to deal with - it uses a bucket you must empty.

These model numbers are certified with the same capacity, efficiency, hose design, heating, drain type and compressor as the Power Breezer H750L.They may be the same unit sold under several brands, or different products that test the same: the DOE data has no dimensions or noise figures, so check those with the maker. Ratings within about 2% in capacity and 0.3 in CEER are treated as the same; a model whose own rating differs a little shows it in brackets.
