Energy Saving Guide

Read and follow the guide below to get the best performance and efficiency from your portable air conditioner:

∙Do not cover the air outlet (exhaust) while in use.

∙Do not place the unit in front of curtains or drapes- to ensure they do not obstruct the air intake.

∙Minimize the length of the exhaust hose, but allow at least 20 inches of space on sides and back of the unit.

∙Make sure the exhaust hose is as straight as possible and avoid kinks or bends.

∙Keep curtains, blinds or drapes closed during the sunniest part of the day.

∙Use the timer to operate the unit before it is needed. For example, set the timer to turn on the unit in cooling mode for 3 or more hours to cool the room before you arrive. You may want to operate the unit all day if you live in a warmer climate.

∙Minimize the heat sources (direct sunlight, computers, servers, people, etc.) in the room.

∙Close all windows and doors.

∙Use the unit in a contained room. For example, a room with four walls and a ceiling, instead of a partitioned studio, or warehouse.

∙Make sure the unit is on a level surface.

∙Minimize the amount of humidity in the room. For example, run the unit as a dehumidifier.

∙To prolong the compressor's life, please wait at least 3 minutes before turning the unit back on after shutting it off.

∙Inspect and keep the pre-filters clean by cleaning regularly.

∙Inspect and replace the activated carbon filters regularly.

∙Perform routine maintenance.
