The Ventless Portable Air Conditioner
2 (2 Reviews) Item
Product Story
This energy-efficient portable air conditioner delivers personal cooling without windows, hoses, or installation. Unlike every other portable AC that still chains you to a window with bulky vent hoses, this unit gives you true freedom. Just plug it in and roll it anywhere you need cool air.
Hose-Free Cooling Technology
Traditional portable air conditioners waste energy cooling whole rooms just to make one spot comfortable. This smart unit uses water-cooling technology to deliver direct cooling exactly where you need it. The 6-liter water tank cools its inner coils for up to four hours with no venting needed.
Easy to Use Features
The 5,500 BTU output efficiently cools spaces up to 150 square feet, while the built-in dehumidifier removes extra moisture from the air. Three fan speeds, sleep mode, and 24-hour timer let you customize your comfort and save energy. The remote control also works as a smart thermostat, giving you complete control from across the room. Smooth-rolling casters make it effortless to move wherever you need cooling.
Save Money on Energy Bills
Get targeted cooling that uses less energy than whole-room systems. Since you can position it right next to you, you'll use lower power settings while staying perfectly comfortable. This reduces your overall energy costs compared to cooling entire rooms you're not using.
Great for Storms and Power Outages
Unlike window AC units that become unsafe during bad weather, this ventless design keeps you cool and safe away from windows. Works with generators during power outages, ensuring comfort when you need it most.
Storage and Versatility
When cooling season ends, just roll it into any closet or storage space. No bulky window kits to store or lose. No parts to keep track of. When you need it again, simply take it out and plug it in. Works anywhere you need cooling - bedrooms, home offices, basements, garages, or guest rooms. Also perfect for apartments and rentals since no permanent setup is needed.
Runs on standard AC power. Includes remote control with 2 AAA batteries. Size: 29" H x 16˝" W x 15˝" D. Weight: 52 lbs.

How is this different than a swamp cooler?
A swamp cooler uses evaporative cooling to help reduce a room’s temperature by using a fan and water. This model functions like a standard AC unit and uses a refrigerant to reduce a room’s temperature.
How cold will it make a room?
It depends upon the fan speed, thermostat control, and the room itself. But you can set its thermostat anywhere from 60° F to 88° F.
How large of a space will it cool?
It is designed to cool rooms up to 150 square feet, depending on room insulation, ceiling height, and sun exposure.
Will it increase the humidity of a room?
No, it helps to actively remove humidity.
Does it run on batteries or have to be plugged in?
The unit must be plugged into a standard AC wall outlet. The remote control operates using two AAA batteries (included).
How often do I have to refill the water tank?
Refill times may vary depending on thermostat settings, but the unit can last anywhere from 2-4 hours before requiring a refill of water.
How is it different than a vented AC unit?
The main differences between this model and a standard window AC unit are that it is portable, operates at much lower BTUs, and is designed for use in medium-small size rooms.
What type of spaces/rooms is it recommended for?
It is designed to go into any small space or medium-sized rooms where cool air is required. This may include attics, garages, bathrooms, kitchens, bedrooms, and offices.
