Quick Verdict
The Coolizi Coolzy is a portable air conditioner and heater with thermoelectric Peltier technology — not a compressor. It uses PTC ceramic heating for winter. No installation, no hose, no refrigerant. Works best in rooms up to 20–25 m².
Who is it for? UK renters who cannot install a split-unit, home workers, anyone struggling to sleep in the heat, and people tired of sky-high energy bills.
Who is it not for? If you need to cool an entire house or regularly face 35°C+ temperatures, a split-system AC remains the better choice.
Unlike fans or portable ACs without a heating function, the Coolizi has a built-in PTC ceramic heater (1,500W). It cools in summer and heats in winter — genuinely useful for the UK's changeable climate.

The Coolizi uses thermoelectric Peltier technology — not a compressor. An electric current creates a temperature difference across a semiconductor element. One side gets cold (cooling), the other gets warm. A quiet fan blows the cool air into the room. No water, no refrigerant, no exhaust hose. It also has a PTC ceramic heater (1,500W) for winter. This means no installation, whisper-quiet operation, and dramatically lower electricity use than a compressor AC.
Yes. The Coolizi has a built-in PTC ceramic heating element of 1,500W. It cools in summer and heats in winter — one device for the whole year, perfect for the UK's changeable climate.
At 55W and 24p/kWh, 8 hours a day costs roughly 11p per day — around £3.50 per month. A traditional 1,000W AC would cost around 20× more.
Yes. No permanent changes to the property — no holes, no external unit, no fixings. Under UK tenancy law (standard AST agreements), you do not need landlord permission for plug-in devices.
No. Only available through the official website. Buying direct is the only way to get the genuine product with the 30-day money-back guarantee and full warranty.
On Eco mode it is very quiet — quieter than a laptop fan. Thousands of UK customers confirm it does not disturb sleep. The highest setting is around 52dB.
20–25 m² is the sweet spot. In a bedroom or home office this works very well. For a large open-plan room, consider two units.
Yes — 30-day money-back guarantee when purchased through the official website. Full refund, no fuss.
