Cool and dehumidify rooms with a constant influx of fresh, cool air

• Cools and dehumidifies spaces up to 300 sq. ft.
• Stop dust mite, mold, and mildew allergies before they start
• Manual controls make it ideal for rooms that need constant cooling and dehumidifying
• Re-starts automatically after power failure
• Portable and easy to move

For many, air conditioners are essential for the hot, humid months of summer. For allergy sufferers, they are even more important. First, air conditioners are half cooling, half dehumidifying. Since allergens such as dust mites, mold, and mildew flourish in warm, humid conditions, the dehumidifying function is essential to keeping their populations under control -- stopping your allergies before they start. Second, with an air conditioner, you can block a major source of allergens into your home -- your windows. By closing your windows, you prevent dust, pollen, and other pollutants from entering your home and make your HEPA air purification system much more effective.

Dehumidifying is easy and efficient with this unit. As soon as you turn on your air conditioner, the dehumidifier turns on with it. Moisture is extracted from the air and either is funneled through exhaust hose (all standard parts included) or is directed to cool the unit itself. This “self-evaporative feature” saves energy by optimizing efficiency.

Unlike wall or window units, this air conditioner can be moved to where you need it. Cool and dehumidify the air in your living room during the day, and move the unit to your bedroom at night. The heavy duty casters make it easy to get it exactly where you want it.

This unit features manual dial controls -- an ideal, cost-effective solution for rooms that need steady cooling and dehumidifying. Louvers can be directed to the area you need to cool most. Set the 8 hour timer or run the unit continuously. This unit includes a washable filter for basic allergen removal and a carbon filter for basic odor removal. For best results, combine with a HEPA purifier.

This air conditioner has a 10,000 btu/hour capacity, making it ideal for rooms up to 300 sq. ft.

Self-Evaporative Technology and Water Drainage

This portable AC unit is equipped with an advanced condensation removal system: Self-Evaporating Technology. When running AC mode, this technology recycles the water condensation to cool off the cooling coils, then evaporates the water out with the exhaust air. This results in increased energy efficiency, cooling performance and reduces the need to empty the water tank. Under extremely humid conditions, the water condensation may collect faster than the unit can recycle. Should the built-in water tank becomes full, the compressor will automatically shut-off and water full indicator will blink. At this time, water should be emptied, which is a simple process.

Window Kit

This unit is supplied with a 1" thick Foam Window Kit. The benefit of foam kit is its versatility and heat resistance over plastic kits. Foam can be easily trimmed to the desired size and once you close your window against the kit, the edges conform to the window frame and the result is a better seal than plastic.

Exhaust

All portable AC units require exhaust hose installation. This is for removal of hot air which has been used to cool off the compressor. Standard installation includes venting through a sliding window or through the wall, by cutting a hole. This AC unit is supplied with the necessary accessories for either installation: flexible hose (extends up to 5'), window kit and wall adapter.

Selecting the Right Model

When selecting a portable air conditioner, there are other factors to take into consideration other than the BTU and the suggested square footage. If the space you're looking to cool has one or more of the following factors, it is strongly recommended to go one or two size up:

1. Heat source such as computer servers, major appliance, skylight, direct sunlight, etc.
2. Higher floors.
3. Lots of windows, especially those facing the west.
4. Poor insulation, such as garage, sunroom, mobile home, etc.

Usage Tips

1. Keep the exhaust hose as short and straight as possible.
2. Heat is emitted back into the room as hot air travels throught the hose, try insulating the hose.
3. If unit is to be operated thoughout the day, turn on the unit early, before the noon heat hits.
4. If unit is to be operated at night and outdoor temperature is lower than room temperature, first open windows to allow air exchange. After 15/20 minutes, close windows.
5. When unit is turned on, set fan on High to allow air circulation. After 30 minutes, set fan to Low. In low fan, air is allowed to pass through the cooling coils over a longer period of time, thus the air output will be colder than High fan.
6. For units with Self-Evaporating Technology, it is always suggested to not use continuous drainage in cooling mode. Allowing the water to collect and recycle helps cool down the cooling coils, which in turn produce colder air output.
