Small is beautiful and convenient and so is the portable air conditioner as it can be shifted from one place to the other very easily. Read on to find out all the other advantages.

With the onset of the damp weather, it becomes difficult to survive without constant central air conditioning but that can prove to be quite expensive. The answer to this problem is a portable air conditioner as it has many advantages. It is easy to shift from one place in the home to another and that makes a portable air conditioner the ideal cooling system solution for your home, office or industrial site.

The portable air conditioners are easy and quick to install, as they do not involve any lifting or tearing up of windowsills. Moreover it can be shifted very easily from one place in the home to the other. For taking care of the hot spots in the central air conditioning, the portable air conditioners are far more convenient than window air conditioners. It is also ideal for window shapes, which present problems for installation. There is nothing like portable air conditioners for use as a spot cooler in the home.

A portable air conditioner is an excellent choice for saving money as just one unit needs to be purchased and it can be shifted easily to where you need it as it is mounted on castors and some can weigh only about 36 pounds. Moreover, as only one room is cooled at a time instead of the whole house, the total energy consumption is very low as compared to other air conditioning systems.

Another advantage of portable air conditioners is the energy efficiency that they provide. The average efficiency is in the 8 to 10 range although some are as high as 15, which is 50 percent better than most older central air conditioners. The small size of the portable air conditioners is very advantageous and as such it can fit in a corner or against a wall. It functions like an effective dehumidifier if you do not vent the warm exhaust air out through a window and its size is also the same as that of a room dehumidifier.

In order to reduce humidity and allergies, even the small ones remove 35 pints of moisture per day from the room air. The portable air conditioners also use the heat-exchange principle as the other air conditioners to cool and dehumidify the air. The operating principle is also similar to a window air conditioner as the room air circulates over cold evaporator coils to cool and dehumidify it inside the unit. The room air is exhausted outdoor after flowing over the hot condenser. There is no chance of already-cooled indoor air escaping outside as two ducts are now used.

Nowadays, you have electronic controls in most models and you can set the desired room temperature, blower speed, start and stop timer, and operation mode (cool, dehumidify, heat). The portable air conditioners also have hand-held remote control with which you can conveniently change all the settings as per your need.

The other features of portable air conditioners include a built-in air cleaner with an optional charcoal filter and oscillating louvers to distribute the cool air throughout the room. You can also switch off the louvers to direct the flow of air towards yourself, if you so desire.

Who Makes Bio Ethanol?

At this time, there are twelve countries that use and produce bio ethanol, promoting better fuel usage with less harmful additives that could hurt the environment. Many countries and manufacturers are learning about all the benefits bio ethanol including reducing greenhouse gas emission, carbon monoxide, and the costs of importing fuel from other countries, allowing them to create and manufacture their own gases, saving money.

The countries currently manufacturing bio ethanol include The United States, France, Brazil, The Philippines, Indonesia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, South Africa, Argentina, Sudan, Thailand, and Kenya. Several companies are responsible for manufacturing bio ethanol, such as Sudzucker Bioethanol GmbH in Europe, VeraSun Energy, and Aventine Renewable Energy Inc.

The Future of Ethanol

In the United States, there are ninety plants operating and manufacturing ethanol. Annually, these companies produce nearly four hundred thousand million gallons of the fuel. At this time, the United States is looking an increase of eighteen more ethanol plants, which will add a further one hundred thousand, million gallons to the total production each year. When it comes to the numbers, the greatest production of ethanol occurs within the Midwest including Illinois and Iowa.

Even with the increase in bio ethanol uses, the United States sees steady increase of ethanol productions yearly. Ethanol prices have been on the rise over the last few years with consumers paying upwards of $3.00 or more per gallon of ethanol fuel. Within the last few months, the ethanol prices have begun to gradually decrease, but as we all know, the more dependant upon other countries for our supply of oil, the greater the fluctuation of ethanol prices.

With that being said, ethanol prices also depend upon how much gasoline is combined with the ethanol. The ethanol prices are generally higher than other types of fuel, because of the oil price. Furthermore, ethanol tends to give the car more miles to the gallon than other types of fuel.

Bio ethanol is create from corn and is much more efficient when it comes to our environment and the future of our world. When using natural products, when a spill occurs, less harm is done to the water, soil, and grass than with other types of fuel. Bio Ethanol prices, are also generally more expensive then regular fuel as well, perhaps by two to three cents..

There are arguments on both sides of the coin, as to which type of fuel you should be using, what either can do for the environment, to the environment, or to our vehicles. The key is that you should be conducting your own research learning the benefits and the drawbacks of using different fuels.

Take my word for it, Florida is a fabulous place to vacation and get a lot of bang for your buck. I've traveled to over 50 countries and 6 continents of the world. I am very familiar with what is available for the vacationer throughout the earth.

Florida offers the most variety of things to do at affordable prices than anywhere I have seen. The sunshine state remains the number one favorite among the British and Canadians. Not to mention Florida is extremely popular among latinos across Central and South America.

Whether you like sunny beaches, world class attractions, fine dining or a luxurious place to just relax Florida is full of options. I was born in Orlando, a children's paradise, which is home to Walt Disney World, Sea World, Universal Studios, several water parks and resorts. I even dated Cinderella when working at Disney World my first summer out of high school. I have lifeguarded at Water Mania and Wetn'Wild, just two of our many water parks in Central Florida. I have surfed Cocoa Beach, New Smyrna Beach and Daytona Beach.

If you are looking for a quiet getaway, try the west coast where you can watch a romantic sunset on the beach. Clearwater, Sarasota and St. Petersburg are all favorites among retirees. The Emerald Coast around Panama City and Pensacola (even better the smaller beach towns) are delightfully charming.

Tampa is one of our fastest growing cities and home to the Devil Rays and Bucaneers if you care to take in a sporting event. Spring time in Florida is home to the boys of summer with baseball franchises across North America coming here to train before regular season. It's a fun way to spend the afternoon and see your favorite athletes all in one place.

If latin flavor is your thing, try Miami where you can move your feet to hot salsa rhythms and spicy merengue beats. A bit pretentious undoubtedly but always lively, Miami has a lot to offer.

If you like yachts and speed boats try visiting Fort Lauderdale, one of the world's largest ports. There are several cruises leaving Fort Lauderdale weekly for the Carribean which are sure to satisfy.

The Florida Keys, four hours south of Miami by car, have some lovely islands and places to visit if you just want to chill and soak up the sun.

The Florida Manatees can be seen at some of our natural springs. Air boat rides can also be found along some rivers, where you can also see some alligators and do some fishing.

These are just a few of countless things you can do to entertain yourself in the great state of Florida. By the end of the day however you'll just want to kick back and drink some fresh squeezed orange juice, have a slice of key lime pie and shoot the breeze with family and friends.
