Our verdict
The EL98 pairs a strong 10,700 BTU output with De'Longhi's RealFeel humidity control and a low 47 dB(A) silent mode, making it one of the quieter high-output single-hose units you can buy. Bulky at 33kg and priced at a premium, but for open-plan spaces up to around 40m² it delivers reliable, well-controlled cooling.
Pros
- Quiet 47 dB(A) silent mode
- High 10,700 BTU output for large rooms
- RealFeel humidity-aware cooling
Cons
