electriQ EcoSilent Air Conditioner Review: Portable Heating & Cooling 

Great review, I need one badly..

I am also interested in how noisy the unit is when dehumidifier or AC is on

Is it possible to use/drain this without a hose or not?

Hi. I’d love to hear about the hearing performance and how quiet/noisy the unit is on heating mode. Also a demonstration of dehumidifier and emptying the tank.

Would have been nice to actually see how you vented it outside... thats seems the worst/most differcult part of it ?

I have the exact same model and the 14. Can I ask if yours fills up with condensation quickly? Mine has to be emptied about 5 times a day and where I live is not humid. The other model I have does not require emptying the tank at all.

I have one and tbh not that impressed with it at all. Love the fact it has multiple functions, but one of the let downs is the dehumidifier setting, one it doesnt show the humidity level which is no biggy but would of been nice and second of all it doesnt draw that much water if anything makes it worse with the exhaust as you are meant to run it without the hose. I understand it has a self evaporation function but ive had it on for quite a few days in high humid area and the collection of water was non existent from the drain plug. Aircon mode - in my kitchen which was 25-26c over the summer naturally and when having this unit in mayve dropped the temps by 4-5 degrees ? Whether thats good im not sure was slightly expecting more. Lastly this is my bad but with the layout of the fans pointing to the ceiling even with oscillator on you really dont get the front facing function of a fan but as i say should of thought about that. But anyway this is my experience of about 6-7 months. Glad you are enjoying it.

Any chance of the heating review of this unit please? I'd be most interested in the noise it makes.

Nice update and I hopefully this week will begin the install of my Airconditioning units (Toshiba Haori) in 8 rooms of the house. It’s mainly for winter heating but the benefit of cooling in the summer is a bonus (maybe not as much of a need for that in the Scottish Highlands). As you may recall I decided to go to Airconditioning units rather than an ASHP with radiators/underfoor heating as my research led me to going for Air to Air solution as it appears to be slightly better efficiency and cheaper overall. I’ll post my experience and results of usage and cost on the Hub in the coming months after Ive had a chance to use it.
