Good indoor climate thanks to (mobile) air conditioning

A hot summer is great. This is at least for those who let the sea breeze blow around their nose with a cold drink in their hands. On the other hand, anyone who breeds in a completely overheated attic apartment will disagree.

If airing does not help anymore, because it just swaps the heat from the outside to the inside, it's hard to stay cool. An air conditioner, which is part of the basic equipment of an apartment in most warm countries, is usually sought in vain in our latitudes. For homeowners, it may be worthwhile thinking about installing a permanently installed air conditioning system in your own home. For all residents of a rented apartment, however, this is an expensive investment that will probably not refund a landlord when moving out. Unless he has previously approved the installation. So what's left? The solution is small, relatively inexpensive and comes mostly on four roles therefore: The mobile air conditioning.

More than a fan

A mobile air conditioning is the optimal solution to cool individual rooms in the apartment pleasantly. It can easily be rolled from one room to another, for example in the evening from the living room to the bedroom. Not only can most modern appliances cool, they also offer the option of regulating the moisture content of the room air.


Almost all mobile air conditioners have an exhaust hose over the accumulating condensation water together with the exhaust air is directed to the outside. As a rule, a window gap is used, of course, the cooling capacity is reduced by penetrating warm air. This problem can be solved with the help of special window sealing foils, which have a suitable opening for the exhaust air hose. Attention: The preassembled hose must not be extended, otherwise its function will be impaired. When buying an air conditioner, it is important to ensure that the exhaust hose is sufficiently long.

Further purchase criteria are above all the power consumption and the noise development. Therefore, it is advisable to compare the energy efficiency classes and decibel values ​​of different devices. A higher purchase price for a Class A or A + device may pay for itself over the long term due to lower power consumption. And for the operation in the bedroom, of course, the quieter the better.

Air conditioners for allergy sufferers

The bad news first: Every fifth German has an allergy to fight. Now the good news: By installing a suitable air conditioning, the annoying and unpleasant symptoms of allergy can be significantly alleviated.


Allergen-free zone

Outdoors, you can not effectively protect yourself from flying pollen, but at least in your own home, a largely allergen-free protection zone can be created. With the help of a suitable air conditioning system, the room air is not only pleasantly tempered and provided with the optimum moisture content, but at the same time freed from suspended particles and pollen of any kind. Important for this are effective air filter systems that can retain even the smallest particles.

What to look for when buying?

When buying an air conditioning system for allergy sufferers, care must be taken that the air exchange does not take place within the room. Only so-called split systems, which dissipate used and allergen-laden air to the outside, offer sufficient protection. The fresh air supplied from the outside is filtered, tempered and possibly humidified or dehumidified. Split systems thus always consist of an indoor unit and an outdoor unit. Air conditioning systems of this type also offer the advantage that the house dust allergy-causing mites can settle worse in the optimized indoor climate. For the safe and effective operation of an air conditioner, the filter systems must be cleaned regularly and replaced if necessary. At certain intervals, the system should also be maintained by a specialist.

ECARF Seal

Allergy-friendly air conditioners are easily recognized by their ECARF seal. This seal of approval has been awarded since 2006 by the European Center for Allergy Research Foundation? (ECARF) for allergy-friendly products and services.
