Floor air conditioners

Floor

— relatively low-power air conditioners designed for installation on the floor, usually with a wall mount (heavy floor-standing units are classified into a separate category — column, see the relevant paragraph).

In itself, such installation is somewhat simpler than wall mounting, in addition, the air flow from the floor unit is usually directed upwards. On the other hand, not every room has enough space on the floor against the wall — especially since there must be some space in front of the air conditioner for efficient air intake. In addition, such placement increases the likelihood of accidentally touching the unit. Therefore, purely floor models are relatively rare, combined floor-ceiling air conditioners are more popular nowadays; they are also described in a separate paragraph.
