Do Portable Air Conditioners REALLY work? (Rintuf 12K BTU Review)

I recommend the Black & Decker amzn.to/3W5EM7w and here is the one in the video: amzn.to/4729EZU

Hey! do we need the hose+window part if just using for "heat mode" in winter?

I have a single hose Shinco for my bedroom as it doesn't get cool enough in my back bedroom. Instead of putting the hose out a window, I put it in the floor so it goes out under the house. The drain plug also goes out under my house. I love mine and wouldn't want to live without it.

This is best household for me, moving it around and no need choose the place to install like the conventional one. For a reason i dont buy it is the gas to replace

Awesome review..

Single hose units pull a vacuum on the space, pulling in warm outside air from door sills and cracks and gaps. That's why the other rooms are stuffy. Dual hose is the only way.

I believe you're not supposed to tilt these sideways or upside down. Next time, just cut the box open, so the unit is always upright. I bought one one time, and that was what the delivery guy said to me, to keep it upright. Glad these things exist. I probably ought to just get another one but I'm looking at a window unit since the portables emit heat into the room itself which it has to manage, and they take up a bit of an area footprint, where as the window unit (since I can install one, I hope!), takes up zero floor space, and keeps most of the AC noise outside since I'm looking at these U shape variable speed inverter AC's.

There is hot/warm air in the hose thru the window. It radiates heat into the room negating the cool air. Maybe wrapping the hose in insulation would help. I used one once and it always fights itself. Does anyone have any ideas?

My portable a c unit creates pails and pails of water every couple of hours in our apartment. Not sure why? At least we have very cool apartment but afraid to keep it on when we go out because of water issue.

I would like to see how the window insert works. It looked like there was only a hose when you were unboxing. Do I need to create a special insert or buy one?

What is the room temperature after one and a half hour? You missed the vital information here

Like it, especially if it's free.

This actually sounds legit, which is rare

a 12k btu cannot handle 400-500sqf (41 normal people units) you would need 4 to 5 of these for hot climate areas.. and maybe 3-4 in regular climate areas.. also it depends very much on ur houses insulation..

Does this get cold like a normal AC?

What if my window is connected to the outside of my room , how do I use the hose

The unit shows FE and I do not know what it means

Okay so where do I find a Aircon unit that works like. A car , 35 degrees c out the Aircon on for 10 mins and the cars like a chilled fridge ? What's the point in paying for an Aircon unit if it's not as good as a fridge haha

I can't fixt mine

What does BTU mean?
