Overview

A bedroom or living room without a window unit can use this portable air conditioner, which vents through a hose and window kit. It cools, dehumidifies and runs a fan, controlled by a remote.

The window kit and exhaust hose are included. The SACC rating is lower than the headline BTU, which is closer to real room output. Heating is not listed, and the machine needs floor space.

Who it's for

Renters and home users who need cooling in a single room and can vent through a window. Large open spaces will need more cooling.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • 24 hour timer
  • Install kit included
Cons
  • Heavy at 56 pounds
  • Window size data unclear

Performance notes

The compressor removes heat and moisture, and the hose vents the hot air outside. Real cooling tracks the SACC figure. Noise rises with the power level.
