How to pick a portable air conditioner using proper BTU rating?

BTU is an energy unit and represents the unit's cooling capacity. Pick the proper BTU rating to select the right air conditioner. Portable air conditioners are rated in BTU. The greater the BTU of a unit, the more cooling power it has. Please note that there is no direct comparison of the cooling capacity of the portable unit with that of window air conditioning units.
