Product Information

Designed in Guildford and manufactured in China, Meaco’s MC9000 is intended to cool rooms of between 16 and 26 square metres. Given that the average new-build UK living room is a little over 17 square metres in volume, that makes this model a prime candidate for most homes.

will generally buy you a decent unit rated to at least 9,000 BTU (see below), which will be anough to cool the average bedroom by ten degrees - so, from a steamy 26C to a spring-like 16C. Most won’t cool below 16C. Remember to close doors and windows and close curtains to keep sunlight out.How much you need to spend depends on your cooling requirements. PACs are rated in British thermal units (BTU): one BTU is the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree. A higher rating means an air conditioner can cool a larger space, which normally means the unit itself will be larger and more expensive. A 9,000BTU unit will handle a space of approximately 45 cubic metres, while a 12,000BTU unit could go up to 90 cubic metres. Measure your room before you buy to make sure you choose an air conditioner that’s up to the job.

For further guidance, following a table that includes an estimated room size for air conditioners with different cooling capacities: Cooling Capacity (BTU) Noise levels. All air conditioners in operation make a fan-like noise, but they vary by as much as ten decibels, which could make all the difference when you’re trying to sleep.I tested the unit over a couple of humid days in my home office and bedroom, both of which measure around 26m2, the upper volume limit for the unit. Weighing in at 23.5kg it is – just – possible to get the unit up a flight of stairs single-handed, but nul points to Meaco for the shallow finger-grips. To find the right air con unit, you need to get an understanding of the measurement of air conditioners. BTU means ‘British thermal unit’ and it measures the energy that indicates the cooling capacity of an air conditioner. For example, 1000 BTU per hour is approximately 293 Watts per hour. An Extended 5 Year Warranty from Buy It Direct gives you the reassurance that if an electrical or mechanical fault arises you won't be exposed to costly repair bills. Our dedicated technical team will take care of your Air Conditioner. When buying an air conditioner, you should pay attention to the wattage and the BTU/h rating. In terms of air conditioning, this is referred to as cooling capacity - 1,000 BTU/h is equivalent to 293 watts. Calculations show that about 6800 BTU are needed for 20 square metres of space. Therefore, a 7000 BTU air conditioner or portable air conditioner is best suitable for small apartments that come with 46 square metres of space.
