An air conditioner for your home or office

An air conditioner for your home or office

Air conditioner in your home or office

The summers are getting warmer and every year you realize again that an air conditioner in your home or office would not have been an unnecessary luxury. After all, a pleasant indoor climate ensures comfort and quality of life at home and productivity in the workplace. Time for a change!

The preparation for a warm summer usually starts in the winter with planning for, and the eventual realization of, an air conditioning system. You will find out that as summer approaches, it might become more difficult to have the system installed (at a fair price). Are you considering installing your air conditioning system yourself, but wondering how, then read on!

Which capacity of the air conditioner?

First of all, the minimum capacity of the a/c needs to be determined, in order to cool the particular room. You can do this by means of the calculation below, but please note, this is only for non-specialist use. Different rules apply to server rooms, large business halls and public areas.

  • You first determine the volume of the room in cubic meters (m3) by calculating length x width x height. An example: The Koelonderdelen.nl office is 8x4x2.5 = 80 m3.
  • After this you will approximate the heat factor (in W/m3). This depends on various things, such as the insulation and the amount of windows. However, the amount of people and electronics in the room also play a role. For your convenience, we distinguish 3 scenarios:
    • Minimum: Well insulated, double glazed windows and few people/electronics. Use 30 W/m3 in this scenario.
    • Medium: Moderately insulated, many double-glazed windows, under a flat/sloping roof, few people and many electronics. 40 W/m3 is a heat factor that fits well with this.
    • Maximum: Poorly insulated, many single-glazed windows, relatively many people/electronics. For a situation like this, use a factor of 50 W/m3.
  • You calculate the cooling capacity of your air conditioning by multiplying the volume of the room by the heat factor. In the case of our Koelonderdelen.nl office, this is 80 m3 x 30 W/m3 = 2400 Watt = 2.4 kW.

A portable air conditioner …

A portable air conditioner is a frequently chosen solution, because it is cheaper and the installation work and costs are lower. Another advantage is that you can move a portable air conditioner between rooms: cooling your living room during the day and the ideal temperature in the bedroom at night.

The disadvantage of this is that you have to ensure that the warm air is led outside through an exhaust hose, through a door or a window, without allowing warm outside air to enter at the same time. Mobile air conditioners cause more noise than a wall mounted air conditioner with an outdoor unit, because the compressor of a split air conditioner hangs outside and this is what causes the noise.

Are you considering purchasing a portable air conditioner? Koelonderdelen.nl has various options in its range, including those from the renowned Carrier brand.

… or a wall mounted one?

Wall mounted air conditioners without an outdoor unit are cheaper to purchase and easier and cheaper to install. This also depends on the various functions you want (control with WiFi?) and the supplied accessories, such as a remote control. In addition, the outdoor unit is generally labeled as ugly, and a wall mounted a/c without an outdoor unit, you often only see two grilles for the air supply and exhaust.

The wall mounted air conditioners with outdoor unit are the most expensive to purchase and the most work to install. But also the quietest and most efficient solution.

Getting started

You can install a split air conditioner for your home yourself. Although beaware that it might be prohibited in your country to connect, to fill with refrigerant and commission the system without a recognized technician. However, this is only a fraction of the total work. So it will save you a lot if you do the rest yourself.

After purchasing the air conditioning system of your choice, you will determine where the indoor unit will be installed. Do this as high as possible (cold air descends) but at least 10 cm from the ceiling. Not too close to the place you want to cool (it is not comfortable to be directly in the cold air flow). And in a place where the temperature measurement of the air conditioning gives a good picture of the room (so not in full sun). The mounting can be done by means of a mounting plate, make sure that it is level both horizontally and vertically. Attach the pipes to the indoor unit connection points and hang the unit.

Hang the outdoor unit from the outside wall or place it on a flat roof. Make sure that it is in the shade as much as possible and that it can draw in sufficient ambient air. Also, place it where you and your surroundings are bothered as little as possible by the compressor noise. It is recommended that you install the condensation drain from the indoor unit downwards. This because of the drainage of condensation water. You can moor higher, but then you should use a condensation water pump.

For the pipes (power cable, cooling pipe and condensation drain), drill a hole through the wall, through which you lead the pipes to the outside. Tighten the pipes well and fix them on the inside. Connecting the pipes to the outdoor unit and filling your air-conditioning system with refrigerant could be done by a certified company, when this is required by law, as discussed earlier.

Why Koelonderdelen.nl?

If you choose to install a wall mounted air conditioning, Koelonderdelen.nl has most of the supplies for this. Think of various ducts, corners, bends and rosettes in various colors and from different brands. But you have also come to the right place for condensation hoses, condensate removal pumps, portable air conditioners and air cleaners!

Once your air conditioning system has been realized, you want to keep it in optimal condition. Only then it reaches the capacity what you want, lasts a long time and does not smell. In that case, make sure that you keep the system clean and maintain it properly. Koelonderdelen.nl has various cleaning products for this purpose, such as from the brands GreenXL and Kate’s Choice in its range.
