For the room central air never reaches
The SPU2 rates 14,000 BTU by the ASHRAE test and 10,000 BTU by the DOE seasonal test, for a room up to 700 square feet. It stands 32 inches tall and 18.5 inches wide on four casters and runs on a standard 120-volt outlet. We list it at 57 dB.
Choose the plain SPU2 if you only need cooling, drying and a fan. Choose the SPU2 with heat if the same room needs warmth in the shoulder months. Both come in white and gray, and in a room under 450 square feet a smaller unit will hold the air drier.
Each of these units is part of the Shinco collection.
