Global sales of tiny homes are expected to increase by USD 3.33 billion. More than 10,000 tiny dwellings are thought to exist in the US, and 700 more are expected to be constructed each year. Thus, owing to the smaller size of the house the consumers prefer using portable air conditioners instead of traditional window or split air conditioners as it hardly needs any additional installation that can be moved from one room to another.
