ARC-131GD specifications

The Whynter ARC-131GD is a versatile and powerful portable air conditioner designed to provide effective cooling solutions in various indoor environments. With its compact design and robust performance, it is suitable for rooms up to 400 square feet, making it an ideal choice for homes, offices, and other spaces requiring efficient temperature control.

One of the standout features of the ARC-131GD is its dual hose system. Unlike single-hose models that can create negative pressure, this unit utilizes two distinct hoses: one for intake and one for exhaust. This design allows for faster and more efficient cooling by drawing in air from outside to cool the condenser and expelling warm air, resulting in a significant reduction in cooling times and improved energy efficiency.

Equipped with advanced cooling technology, the Whynter ARC-131GD operates with an impressive cooling capacity of 13,000 BTU. This means it can effectively lower the temperature in a medium-sized room even in sweltering conditions. Additionally, the unit operates quietly, making it perfect for use in bedrooms, study areas, or any other space where noise levels need to be kept low.

The dehumidifying feature is another highlight of this portable air conditioner, capable of removing up to 78 pints of moisture from the air in a day. This helps create a more comfortable environment by reducing humidity levels, which is particularly beneficial during summer months. The ARC-131GD offers an auto-drain function that allows the condensate collected during the cooling process to be reused for cooling, minimizing the need for manual water removal.

User convenience is emphasized in the design of this air conditioner. It comes with a remote control, allowing users to adjust settings such as temperature, mode, and fan speed from a distance. Additionally, the digital display and programmable timer enhance usability, providing further control over your indoor climate.

Energy efficiency is another key aspect of the Whynter ARC-131GD, as it is Energy Star rated. This certification indicates that the unit meets strict energy efficiency guidelines, helping users save on electricity bills while using the product.

Overall, the Whynter ARC-131GD is an excellent portable air conditioning solution, combining advanced technology, user-friendly features, and energy efficiency to ensure comfort in any setting. Its reliable performance and innovative design make it a popular choice for individuals seeking effective cooling solutions.
