Here is information from the website.
"Air Command is the QUIETEST, MOST EFFICIENT air conditioner in its class, offering 16K or 18K BTU equivalent performance... THE LATEST TECHNOLOGY using the LEAST AMOUNT OF ENERGY."
I'm not buying it, if the technology worked, all manufacturers would have something similar. Probably a 15k that can under certain circumstances can perform better. Once the stars align, sky is clear, and he!! freezes over for optimal performance.
Yeah, ... it's hard to validate claims, but the Penguin ll is on the same path. They don't give BTU figures, but call it a High Capacity. It seems the gain is in more efficient compressors and fan motors, plus improved air flow. Lets face it, the roof ac's we know are all on the poor end of efficiency, so improvements are inevitable.
Penguin llBelieve me I'm not advocating either of these units, just passing on what's out there.
