Air-Conditioning Units for Home and Office Use Three air-conditioning units designed for home and office use and priced for the consumer market have recently been developed by Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Company. The smallest of the three units, shown in the illustration, has a cooling capacity of 4,000 Btu per hour and is expected to be used chiefly in bedrooms. The next larger model, with a capacity of 6,000 Btu per hour, and total conditioned-air delivery of 225 cubic feet per minute, is planned for use in average private offices under the heavier requirements of daytime service. The largest of the line is a floor model for larger offices and private houses, with 8,500 Btu capacity and delivery of 300 cubic feet of conditioned air per minute.
