Portable ACs offer flexibility no other type can match. Roll them from room to room.

How Portable ACs Work

Entire system in one freestanding cabinet. Exhausts through window hose.

Single-Hose vs Dual-Hose

Simpler, cheaper, but creates negative pressure. 30-40% less efficient.

Separate intake and exhaust hoses. No negative pressure. Significantly more efficient.

Understanding BTU Ratings

DOE SACC rating is the real measure. 8,000 BTU DOE = ~14,000 BTU ASHRAE.

When a Portable AC Makes Sense

• Renting — can't install permanent AC
• Incompatible windows
• Need cooling in different rooms
• Temporary solution
• Building prohibits exterior units

Maintenance Tips

Handle condensation. Clean filter every 2 weeks.
