About AircoAlert
AircoAlert is a single-purpose availability monitor for the Midea PortaSplit, a portable split air conditioner that keeps its compressor outside on a window bracket and so needs no drilling. The vendor says units tend to sell out within hours during heatwaves, and the tracker exists to catch restocks.
It checks retailers continuously across Spain, France, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Germany, covering 31 retailers and hundreds of retail points, with updates every five minutes. A page for each country shows live availability, and subscribers receive an email the moment stock is detected. The tracker and the email alert are free, and an optional one-time Turbo pass adds minute-by-minute monitoring of the fastest source, an instant Telegram push and a direct add-to-cart link. It is an independent project that states it is not affiliated with Midea or the retailers, and some outbound links are affiliate links.
