such as window air conditioners or central air aren't viable. Here are a few situations where a stand
alone air conditioner could be just the answer you're looking for.
- New additions or that room above the garage you just remodeled.
- College dorm rooms.
- When window air conditioners are not permitted by the landlord.
- The central A/C doesn't reach the uppermost rooms of your home.
- Irregular shaped windows won't accommodate a window unit.
- Fear of damaging new vinyl replacement windows with an in-window unit.
- Extra cooling for rooms containing sensitive electronic equipment like computers.
Other portable room air cooling units like a fan create a cooling breeze but do nothing to reduce
humidity; while a portable swamp cooler actually adds moisture to the air as it cools. This leaves
only the portable air conditioner as a viable source of cooling and dehumidifying when traditional
cooling appliances are unavailable.
