Review: Great Purchase... But Loud! - Before I get started, I'd like to say that I'm the type of guy who absolutely can NOT stand the heat. Anything over 80 degrees and I start losing my marbles. I get easily irritated, I get a bad temper, can't focus, can't work, and can't think straight when it gets too hot at home. So when the recent heat waves were hitting California, I knew I had to buy a portable AC. I ended up purchasing this particular unit because it was slightly cheaper than the competition, and more importantly it had a dual hose setup which I wanted. Won't lie, I had my reservations making this purchase, since so many things can go wrong with this type of product. However, when it arrived and I started using it, it's been nothing but an icy blast thus far! So here we go with the details. The unit arrived, and I set it up myself without any issues. Took me about 30 min to get it all done. I noticed that the window board was pretty thin, so I put some extra foam behind the edges of the board to block some outside noise (kids playing in the courtyard). Additionally, I also put gorilla tape around the whole edge of the window board to prevent hot air from leaking into the apartment. After getting it set up, I let it rest for 24 hours (which you should always do with portable AC's). I came home the next day from work and it was about 95 degrees outside. However, inside my apartment felt way hotter like a sauna/green room as it was baking in the heat with the windows closed all day. Immediately, I put this baby on blast at the highest setting, and set the temperature to 61 degrees which is the lowest. A short 10 minutes later, the apartment living room felt like it was livable again. An hour later, and I was in a cool paradise. I even set up a box fan that blew from my living room into my bedroom and to my surprise, this method actually cooled my room down to a sleepable temperature! The first two weeks I've had it I was super paranoid with the whole leakage situation. I would check back every 1-2 hours like clockwork to see if the AC was leaking water onto the floor. Part of my paranoia was caused by the dripping sound I hear within the unit. To my surprise, even after a month of use, I haven't gotten any leakages! The self evaporating system seems to be working great thus far, at least in my humidity level. If you want to compare to your environment, just look up Culver City, California temperatures & humidity and you'll be able to see what kind of environment my AC has been running on. Today is 86 degrees, with 53% humidity, and I usually have it running 6-10 hours a day. No leaks, and no drain pipe needed, at least not yet. There was one small issue I've had though. This is NOT a quiet unit. If you're looking for something quiet perhaps for a baby's room, this is not the one. It definitely runs loud. I don't know the exact decibel level but when sitting next to it, it sounds like there's a tiny lawn mower roaring next to me. I'm completely OK with the sound level, and it's not loud enough to interfere with my discord calls, even when I'm sitting right next to it, so all is well. Plus, I'd rather my apartment be a little noisier but cool, than silent and hot lol... All in all, this was a magnificent purchase thus far and worth every dollar. It seems like each individual customer's experience may vary, but mine has been great through this month of intense Cali heat. Would strongly recommend this product to anyone who feels like their soul is melting to the heat. Hope this helps! TLDR: Reliable unit so far, great cooling, easy assembly, no leaks, but LOUD!
Review: Low noice level, cold air, Excessive water accumulation - Where to start? There is a lot to say about this portable AC unit. I would caution buyers to do their research before buying this unit. Pros: * Noise level, average to low, eventually becomes white noise in the background, you get use to it. * Cooling power, the unit cools an average size room well. I live in Palm Springs, CA and the temperature here can average 117 degrees mid summer. The unit does its job. * Overall, it’s an average unit, nothing extraordinary about it. Cons: * Fan speed, fan speed is low even at high speeds, which is probably what keeps the noise level down. * The AC unit, within a few weeks developed a loud rattling, like rustling noise, it turned out to be the loose carbon filter which flapped when the unit pulled air in, so the standard filter has to be cleaned regularly and the carbon filter securely placed or removed altogether. So far so good. * Water drainage and evaporation, this has proven to be a huge problem. The average temperature here in Palm Springs, CA is 117 degrees mid summer, humidity rarely goes over 40%. Over the last two days, this portable AC unit has stopped working every 50 minutes to an hour due to the auto shut off feature that turns off the unit when the water tank fills up. The water tank holds about 1 pint of water, about two cups. The AC unit will not turn on until the water is manually drained. The humidity was at 35% and the AC unit turned off every hour with the water tank full. Manufacturer says it recommends automatic water drainage via a set drainage hose. Here is the issue with that, 1. How can this AC unit produce so much condensation/water? Two cups every hour, a full tank? 2. The AC unit would have to be set on a high perch in order for the drainage port and draining hose to have the require gravity for the water to drain. Standard size drainage hose for portable AC is not included, I bought one and used a large bucket to have the drainage hose drain the water into it. The bucket is just under the water drainage port in height so it allows for proper position/gravity/incline to allow water to drain properly. * Just image the cost and the hassle to ship this monster back to the manufacturer, it’s large and somewhat heavy. * Overall, it would appear this unit is in need of much needed redesigning or is defective, it’s doesn’t seem possible for it to produce so much water, and yet it does. I would recommend to do your research before buying.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: When using heater only, why does our water fill up and need to be drained every 2-3 hours? are we doing something wrong? both hoses are in use. la, ca**
A: It's the nature of the beast if you understand how the heat pump/AC units work for there to be condensation. To explain all AC units, I start with the compressor that takes in low pressure Freon gas (like 30 psi) and compresses it to high pressure (like 150 psi) which makes it go quite hot.  The hot gases are then sent thru a set of coils to send the heat where we want (like in a window AC unit thru the coils outside the window, or in a car thru coils near the car radiator, but in these it goes thru the coils in the lower section that gets cooled from outside air coming thru the tubes).  Once the gas is cooled thru those from ~150 to 90 degrees or such, the pressure is released as the gas goes thru an orifice and the gas expanding goes cold to like 32 degrees.  That cold gas is then sent thru another set of coils to cool the space we want (like thru the top section of these to blow cold air into the room).  After that the low pressure gas returns to the compressor to restart the cycle.
That's the basics of all AC systems.  Part of why they get called "Air conditioners" and not just "Air coolers" is because the cold section always attracts moisture where you get condensation (just like a cold soda can being wet after sitting for a few minutes) making them "dehumidify" as well as cool.  While these run as an AC, they have the water formed in the cold top section drain to the bottom where most of it helps cool the hot coils, it gets evaporated and blown out the window with hot air making it seem like there is no water formed.  Yet when run as a heat pump (where the top section gets hot to put heat in the room while the lower goes cold) there's no way the water flows uphill to the hot section, so you need to drain it constantly or have the pump send it out the window.  I've seen a half gallon produced in 6 hours run time to show how much can come thru.
Some may find that a pain to deal with, yet these do give you about 2 times the heat from the same energy as running a space heater (to show there is a benefit).  So sorry about that, but condensation forming on a cold metal surface is going to happen like it or not.

**Q: What are the dimensions of the window kit?**
A: The included window kit measures, 6.5"" W x 20"" L (minimum), 46"" (maximum). If the included solid window kit slide bars do not completely cover your window or door opening, most customers purchase an additional window kit (model ARC-WK-DUALN) and use both sets.Please contact our Consumer Support Team, Monday - Friday 8:30 AM - 4:30 PM PST at 1-866-WHYNTER (1-866-949-6837) and at support@whynter.com should you have additional questions.

**Q: Is this an energy star certified air conditioner?**
A: There are currently no portable air conditioner units on the market that meet the energy star qualifications.

Our Consumer Support Team is available Monday - Friday 8:30 AM - 4:30 PM PST at 1-866-WHYNTER (1-866-949-6837) and at support@whynter.com should you have additional questions.

**Q: Why are the exhaust and intake set so close together in the window attachment? It seems like a design flaw causing intake to pull in hot exhaust air**
A: That is an interesting question.  I gave one of these to my brother and he also suggested "It would be better if you took in air from one window and sent it out another to avoid the same air quickly circulating right back in" which I can agree with.  The issues with that are they need to add more parts (2 window kits), be sure you have 2 different windows in the room, perhaps add much more hose lengths, and more to raise costs.  Also they want it to fit in as many windows as possible including some ~15 inches, so those things make the designers keep them close together like they do.  I've seen some say they made a baffle to direct out-going air one way versus incoming that you can do (but perhaps they should add such).
In many ways the same thing is true in terms of the room air circulation where much of it goes out the front just to quickly flow back to the intake so it cools a space ~5 feet around itself and no more.  I personally taped a metal floor vent over the top and have a 6 inch tube routing cool air ~10 feet away from it, thus it cools a much bigger space with the circulation forced further away.  So there are improvements possible, yet keeping a "all in one" unit design forces you into certain things like that.
FYI I still think having 2 hoses is better than 1.  Those with only 1 do "blow hot air out the window", but they don't tell you about the outside air being pulled back into the room to make up for everything going out (and I think of that outside air coming into the cooled space like leaving the fridge door open where it'll never keep up with it).  That's as big or a bigger "design flaw" in my mind in many units where having a complete loop for outside air circulation (in one tube and back out the 2nd) is much better (even with them close) versus the single hose units taking cooled room air to go out and bringing in outside air constantly.  Lots to consider.
