Midea PortaSplit Cool portable split air conditioner 2.35 kW

Technical overview
The Midea PortaSplit Cool portable split air conditioner 2.35 kW combines a wheeled indoor unit with a separate outdoor unit to cool rooms without a permanent installation. It also provides dehumidification and fan modes, with control via the operating panel, remote control or Midea SmartHome app.

Key features
▸ Cooling capacity of 2.35 kW or 8,000 BTU/h
▸ Portable split design without permanent wall installation
▸ Suitable for rooms up to 28 m² or 70 m³
▸ A++ cooling energy rating with a SEER of 6.1
▸ Indoor sound pressure level from 38 dB(A) in quiet mode
▸ Cooling, dehumidification and fan operating modes
▸ Control via remote control and Midea SmartHome app

How it works and what it is for
The indoor unit removes heat from the room, while the outdoor unit releases it outside. Both units are connected by a sealed refrigerant circuit with a flat connecting line, avoiding the large hot-air exhaust hose used by conventional monobloc portable air conditioners. The appliance can cool the room, reduce humidity or circulate air.
