Amcor 16,000-BTU Portable Air Conditioner - Silver (PLM16000E) | Bubbles's Review Amcor 16,000-BTU Portable Air Conditioner – Silver (PLM16000E) Review from Bubbles. Expensive, clunky, loud and worthless, I bought this portable thinking it might be a nice solution for my master suite loft. I was in the middle of construction, so it was easy to add the proper circuitry, which is a 20amp breaker. What I didn’t care for is that even though it seems cleverly designed to neatly tuck into the corner of a room, there is this giant dryer vent pipe that sticks straight out the back – pushing it further away from the corner and which needs to vent out the window…and it’s only a 6 foot vent. They say in the packaging that you cannot use a different length. So, getting past the aestetics of the pipe is the fact that while it does blow cool air out of the top of the unit, the vent is venting out hot air to the outside, thereby heating up the room on it’s way. Pretty much it was a wash. Any cooling it did was negated by the hot vent. I did have to drain the water a couple of times, but it was never much water. Anyhow, I returned the product and went and bought myself a window unit that was slightly lower BTUS, energy star rated and was about a third less the cost.
