Wood’s AC Cortina 12K AirSwitch

Wood's AC Cortina 12K AirSwitch™ is a test-winning portable AC with patented AirSwitch™ technology. When the outdoor temperature is cooler than indoors, the compressor switches off and the fan whispers quietly as it draws in cool air from outside – extremely quiet and energy efficient. At the same time, the air is purified through a built-in HEPA filter that removes pollen, dust and bacteria. Effectively cools up to 35 m², energy class A and 6-year warranty upon registration. Full product description

Wood’s AC Cortina 12K AirSwitch™

Cools extremely quietly and energy-efficiently with HEPA purification

Wood’s AC Cortina 12K AirSwitch was named ‘Best in Test’ by LB Home 2025. It is a revolution in portable air conditioning and is based on the multiple test-winning Cortina 12K, but is also equipped with the patent-pending AirSwitch™ technology that uses cool outdoor air when the outside temperature is lower than inside. This provides whisper-quiet operation and extremely low energy consumption. At the same time, the air is always purified through a HEPA filter that removes particles and supplies fresh air that lowers CO₂ levels. Everything for the optimal indoor climate and perfect for nights when you want to sleep cool, clean and well, without disturbing noise.

How AirSwitch works:

IMAGES/ILLUSTRATIONS

  1. When the outside temperature is higher than the desired temperature, the compressor efficiently cools the room and purifies the air through a HEPA filter.
  2. When the outside temperature is lower than the set temperature, AirSwitch automatically switches to bring in the cooler air through the HEPA filter from outside without running the compressor – quieter and more energy efficient.

Experience the difference:

Noise level: Compressor mode: 49–53.5 dB compared to AirSwitch mode: 34–38 dB
Energy consumption: Compressor mode: 1350 W compared to AirSwitch mode: 56 W

Two smart AirSwitch™ modes for optimal cooling

AirSwitch Auto – Automatically switches between traditional compressor cooling and bringing in cool outdoor air. Perfect for nights when the outdoor temperature drops.
AirSwitch – When the outdoor temperature is lower than indoors, the AC constantly brings in the cool air and efficiently cools the room.

Cleaner and healthier air with HEPA filter

In addition to effective cooling, the Cortina 12K AirSwitch™ air conditioner also offers advanced air purification. The built-in HEPA technology captures dust, pollen, mould spores, bacteria and even small smoke particles, regardless of how you cool. The result is not only a comfortable temperature, but also a cleaner and healthier indoor environment.

Children’s room: Stable and healthy temperature combined with clean air from the HEPA filter.
