Soleus Air PH4-12R-01 Portable Air Conditioner and Heater Review

Soleus Air PH4-12R-01 Portable Air Conditioner and Heater | AKC Alex's Review Soleus Air PH4-12R-01 Portable Air Conditioner and Heater Review from AKC Alex. Different model but some input for your consideration, I actually got mine at Home Depot too. The model I bought was the PH4-13R-01. It has 13000 Btu cooling power and 12000 Btu heat pump. It looks identical to this one pictured at Amazon. I saved a hundred dollars by signing up for a HD credit card – so it made the decision to buy somewhat easier.

Good:

Cools well, mine is rated at 550sf, but I am actually trying to cool a much larger area. Good for a large living room or family room with kitchen adjacent. It is possible to super cool the area if necessary.

Control layout is easy to understand and change settings.

3 fan speeds, allows good control of air speed.

The heat pump is a big deal, I can’t wait to try it out. Heat pumps are basically air conditioning cycle in reverse – it’s supposed to be way more efficient than a typical furnace.

Bad:

Oscillation (sp?) is only up and down, not side to side. Makes air distribution poor to corners of room.

Uses lots of power, I think 1300 watts – but still better than my central air. You can save some electricity by setting the thermostat a bit higher – the compressor will turn on/off as needed to maintain that temp.

  • Works fantastic to warm up our bathroom. Still working after a year. It is rather loud on high speed, on low speed its ok, but if you place it on high then get in the shower you wont hear it over the water running.

  • @chels I know what you mean, its hard to find good help these days. People now days just don’t have the work ethic they used to have. I mean consider whoever wrote this post, they must have been working hard to write that good and it took a good bit of their time I am sure. I work with people who couldn’t write like this if they tried, and getting them to try is hard enough as it is.
