Nothing here has been physically tested and nothing is scored. What you get is the published specification, the running cost in pounds, and an honest statement of what a unit will and will not do.
The units
11 units, every figure copied from the manufacturer's own specification page with the date somebody read it. Nothing has been bought, run or measured, so there are no scores and no rankings.

The decibel figure on the box is not a number you can compare
A fan says "from 25 dB" and an air conditioner says 51 dB. Those are opposite ends of two different machines, and most tables put them in one column.

The planning rule that decides what air conditioning you can fit
In England a unit that only cools is never permitted development, at any size, in any position. One that also heats often is. Most sites miss this.
